Impaired speech-in-noise performance is a primary patient complaint in audiology clinics, and in addition to standard frequency (SF; 0.25–8 kHz) sensitivity, age, and cognition, recent work as focused on the association of extended high frequency (EHF, > 8 kHz) sensitivity with this degraded performance. Despite th...
PURPOSE This study aimed to examine how loudspeaker configuration influences the evaluation of personally worn remote microphone (RM) systems under a single signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) condition. METHOD This study included 10 school-aged children with hearing loss who used hearing devices and RM systems. Speech recog...
The sounds we experience in our everyday communication can vary greatly depending on the environment. Paradoxically, increasing the sound level may lead to worse speech perception, especially in noise. This decline is known as "rollover." It is unclear how rollover is experienced differentially across aging groups, as...
How degraded acoustic input shifts processing from rapid, implicit lexical access toward explicit working-memory-dependent reconstruction within the Ease of Language Understanding (ELU) model is described.
