Effects of interpersonal familiarity on the auditory distance perception of level-equalized reverberant speech

open access: yesActa Acustica, 2020
Familiarity with sound sources is known to have a modulatory effect on auditory distance perception. However, the level of familiarity that can affect distance perception is not clearly understood.

Involving Children and Teenagers With Bilateral Cochlear Implants in the Design of the BEARS (Both EARS) Virtual Reality Training Suite Improves Personalization

open access: yesFrontiers in Digital Health, 2021
Older children and teenagers with bilateral cochlear implants often have poor spatial hearing because they cannot fuse sounds from the two ears. This deficit jeopardizes speech and language development, education, and social well-being.

How Plastic Is Spatial Hearing?

open access: yesAudiology and Neurotology, 2001
The location of a sound source is derived by the auditory system from spatial cues present in the signals at the two ears. These cues include interaural timing and level differences, as well as monaural spectral cues generated by the external ear. The values of these cues vary with individual differences in the shape and dimensions of the head and ...

Evaluation of Speech, Spatial Perception and Hearing Quality in Unilateral, Bimodal and Bilateral Cochlear Implant Users

open access: yesTurkish Archives of Otorhinolaryngology, 2019
Objective:The aim of the study was to conduct a scale-based evaluation of the hearing skills of unilateral, bimodal and bilateral cochlear implant (CI) users, including distinguishing, orientating and locating speech and environmental sounds in their ...

Audiovisual Interactions in Front and Rear Space

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2018
The human visual and auditory systems do not encode an entirely overlapped space when static head and body position are maintained. While visual capture of sound source location in the frontal field is known to be immediate and direct, visual influence ...

Relations between psychophysical measures of spatial hearing and self-reported spatial-hearing abilities [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Audiology, 2014
Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate how well the virtual psychophysical measures of spatial hearing from the preliminary auditory profile predict self-reported spatial-hearing abilities. Design: Virtual spatial-hearings tests (conducted unaided, via headphones) and a questionnaire were administered in five centres in Germany, the

Speech understanding in diffuse steady noise in typically hearing and hard of hearing listeners

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Spatial cues can facilitate segregation of target speech from maskers. However, in clinical practice, masked speech understanding is most often evaluated using co-located speech and maskers (i.e., without spatial cues). Many hearing aid centers in France

Quantifying active brain areas at spatial hearing process using Electroencephalography (EEG) source localization approach [PDF]

open access: yesITM Web of Conferences
The human ability for spatial hearing encourages the development of spatial audio technology to support many human activities. Spatial audio mimics the real-life sound and provides a more immersive hearing experience as if the listener were present in ...

Spatial Benefit of Bilateral Hearing Aids [PDF]

open access: yesEar & Hearing, 2009
To assess the extent to which hearing aids improve spatial benefit by restoring the availability of interaural difference cues, the benefit attributable to spatial separation of speech and babble with and without bilateral hearing aids was measured as a function of low-pass cutoff frequency.Twenty-one older adults with sloping high-frequency hearing ...
