Relationships Between Self-Report Hearing Scales, Listening Effort, and Speech Perception in Cocktail Party Noise in Hearing-Aided Patients. [PDF]
Background/Objectives: Potential correlations between the scores of self-report questionnaires and speech perception in noise abilities vary widely among studies and have been little explored in patients with conventional hearing aids (HAs).

Gender effect on Psychoacoustical abilities and Speech perception in noise in individuals with Sickle cell anemia. [PDF]
Background: Sickle cell anemia (SCA), a genetic hemoglobin disorder, suggests essential inner ear compromise and poor auditory processing. In humans, auditory processing differs physiologically between males and females, possibly true for SCA due to ...

Non-Musicians Experience Early Aging in Speech Perception in Noise Abilities Compared to Musicians. [PDF]
BackgroundResearch has shown that musicians outperform non-musicians in speech perception in noise (SPiN) tasks. However, it remains unclear whether the advantages of musical training are substantial enough to slow down the decline in SPiN performance ...

High-frequency audiometry, speech perception in quiet and noise, and vestibular-evoked myogenic potential in women with polycystic ovary syndrome [PDF]
Purpose The study aimed to investigate the effect of PCOS on high-frequency thresholds, speech perception in quiet and in presence of noise, and vestibular functioning in women with and without PCOS and to correlate the speech perception scores with that

Improving speech perception in noise in young and older adults using transcranial magnetic stimulation [PDF]
Normal aging is associated with speech perception in noise (SPiN) difficulties. The objective of this study was to determine if SPiN performance can be enhanced by intermittent theta-burst stimulation (iTBS) in young and older adults.

Speech recognition in natural background noise. [PDF]
In the real world, human speech recognition nearly always involves listening in background noise. The impact of such noise on speech signals and on intelligibility performance increases with the separation of the listener from the speaker.

Functional correlates of the speech-in-noise perception impairment in dyslexia: An MRI study [PDF]
International audienceDyslexia is a language-based neurodevelopmental disorder. It is characterized as a persistent deficit in reading and spelling. These difficulties have been shown to result from an underlying impairment of the phonological component ...
