Moderate Reverberation Does Not Increase Subjective Fatigue, Subjective Listening Effort, or Behavioral Listening Effort in School-Aged Children

Frontiers in Psychology, 2019
Background noise and reverberation levels in typical classrooms have negative effects on speech recognition, but their effects on listening effort and fatigue are less well understood.

Relationship between objective measures of hearing discrimination elicited by non-linguistic stimuli and speech perception in adults

Scientific Reports, 2021
Some people using hearing aids have difficulty discriminating between sounds even though the sounds are audible. As such, cochlear implants may provide greater benefits for speech perception.

Speech perception and production as constructs of action: Implications for models of L2 development

Revista X, 2021
Speech production involves an intricate set of actions. Its underlying cognitive mechanisms are thus historically seen as distant from those of speech perception, usually assumed to be a passive process.

Do We Perceive Others Better than Ourselves? A Perceptual Benefit for Noise-Vocoded Speech Produced by an Average Speaker. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
In different tasks involving action perception, performance has been found to be facilitated when the presented stimuli were produced by the participants themselves rather than by another participant.

Cochlear Implantation in Patients with Mitochondrial Gene Mutation: Decline in Speech Perception in Retrospective Long-Term Follow-Up Study

Life, 2022
Clinical evidence of the effectiveness of cochlear implantation for hearing loss with mitochondrial DNA mutation is limited. Most reports have only described short-term postoperative speech perception, which may not reflect the limitations of cochlear ...

Hebrew Digits in Noise (DIN) Test in Cochlear Implant Users and Normal Hearing Listeners

Audiology Research
This study aimed to compare the Hebrew version of the digits-in-noise (DIN) thresholds among cochlear implant (CI) users and their normal-hearing (NH) counterparts, explore the influence of age on these thresholds, examine the effects of early auditory ...

Only behavioural but not self-report measures of speech perception correlate with cognitive abilities

Frontiers in Psychology, 2016
Good speech perception and communication skills in everyday life are crucial for participation and well-being, and are therefore an overarching aim of auditory rehabilitation.

Speech Perception Deficits in Mandarin-Speaking School-Aged Children with Poor Reading Comprehension

Frontiers in Psychology, 2017
Previous studies have shown that children learning alphabetic writing systems who have language impairment or dyslexia exhibit speech perception deficits. However, whether such deficits exist in children learning logographic writing systems who have poor
