Sequential critical periods for the development of binaural integration in the infant mouse auditory cortex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Early binaural experience can recalibrate central auditory circuits that support spatial hearing. However, it is not known how binaural integration matures shortly after hearing onset or whether various developmental stages are differentially impacted by

Validation of the Spatial Hearing Questionnaire [PDF]

open access: yesEar & Hearing, 2009
Subjective questionnaires are informative in understanding the difficulties faced by patients with hearing loss. Our intent was to establish and validate a new questionnaire that encompasses situations emphasizing binaural hearing. The Spatial Hearing Questionnaire is a self-report assessment tool with eight subscales representing questions; pertaining

Independent impacts of age and hearing loss on spatial release in a complex auditory environment

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2013
Listeners in complex auditory environments can benefit from the ability to use a variety of spatial and spectrotemporal cues for sound source segregation.

Neural network model of binaural hearing based on spatial feature extraction of the head related transfer function [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
In spatial hearing, complex valued head-related transfer function (HRTF) can be represented as a real valued head-related impulse response (HRIR). Using Karhunen-Loeve expansion, the spatial features of the normalized HRIRs on measurement space can be ...

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 ...

Decision making in auditory externalization perception: model predictions for static conditions

open access: yesActa Acustica, 2021
Under natural conditions, listeners perceptually attribute sounds to external objects in their environment. This core function of perceptual inference is often distorted when sounds are produced via hearing devices such as headphones or hearing aids ...

Improving health-related quality of life in single-sided deafness: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Unilateral severe-to-profound hearing loss, or single-sided deafness (SSD), impairs listening abilities supported by the use of two ears, including speech perception in background noise and sound localisation.

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.

Executive functioning and speech-language skills following long-term use of cochlear implants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Neurocognitive processes such as executive functioning (EF) may influence the development of speech-language skills in deaf children after cochlear implantation in ways that differ from normal-hearing, typically developing children.
