This study examined whether a gamified and personalized auditory-cognitive training (ACT) program could improve naturalistic speech-in-noise (SIN) comprehension in older adults with mild-to-moderate ...
Sounds you consciously perceive affect your brain differently than sounds you don't, a recent Yale study found. For the study, researchers played participants a series of tones—ranging in intensity ...
Stimulating a specific part of the auditory cortex immediately improved speech perception over background noise in an epilepsy patient, according to new research in JNeurosci. To treat severe cases of ...
Impaired Speech Continues to Pose Challenges for the Automatic Processing of Speech and Multimodal Interaction between Humans and Computers systems caused by distortion of articulation and involuntary ...
In a recent article published in Nature, researchers investigated the early maturation of sound duration processing, a crucial auditory temporal feature. Study: Early maturation of sound duration ...
For decades, neuroscientists have marveled at one of the brain’s most striking tricks: when hearing is lost early in life, the auditory cortex does not fall silent. Instead, it is commandeered by t ...
New research reveals that prolonged stress alters brain function, reducing sensitivity to sound over time. This study uncovers how the brain adapts to chronic stress, prioritizing other senses while ...
Sounds can alter the way the brain interprets what it sees. This is the key finding of a new study by SISSA researchers in Trieste, published in PLOS Computational Biology. The research shows that, ...
A team of researchers from the Ivcher Institute for Brain, Cognition, and Technology (BCT Institute) at Reichman University (Herzliya, Israel) has identified a significant deficit in auditory spatial ...
Some of the most complex cognitive functions are possible because different sides of your brain control them. Chief among them is speech perception, the ability to interpret language. In people, the ...
Studies on misophonia have compared the newly termed disorder to Obsessive Compulsive and Related Disorders, synesthesia, anger management problems, disorders related to impulse control, and ...
What does the world sound like to someone with PTSD? Trauma can fundamentally change how the brain filters, interprets, and ...
