Purpose: This study considered the impact of spectral and temporal smearing on vowel and consonant discrimination in school-age children and adults with normal hearing (NH). The overall purpose of this work was to test the hypothesis that degraded spectral cues preferentially impact vowel discrimination, while reduced access to temporal cues…

M. Wong; Pei Jun Woo – Developmental Science, 2024
We report the findings of a multi-language and multi-lab investigation of young infants' ability to discriminate lexical tones as a function of their native language, age and language experience, as well as of tone properties. Given the high prevalence of lexical tones across human languages, understanding lexical tone acquisition is fundamental…

Listeners Are Biased towards Voices of Young Speakers and Female Speakers When Discriminating Voices
Valeriia Vyshnevetska; Nathalie Giroud; Meike Ramon; Volker Dellwo – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2025
In face processing, an own-age recognition advantage has frequently been reported whereby observers are better at recognizing faces of their own compared to other age groups. We wanted to know whether own-age effects exist in voice recognition. Two listener groups, younger adults (n = 42, 19-35 years, 21 males) and older adults (n = 32,…

Auditory steady-state response (ASSR) has been studied as a potential biomarker for abnormal auditory sensory processing in autism spectrum disorder (ASD), with mixed results. Motivated by prior somatosensory findings of group differences in inter-trial coherence (ITC) between ASD and typically developing (TD) individuals at twice the steady-state…

Sensory differences are included in the DSM-5 criteria of autism for the first time, yet it is unclear how they relate to neural indicators of perception. We studied early brain signatures of perception and examined their relationship to sensory behaviors and autistic traits. Thirteen autistic children and 13 Typically Developing (TD) children…

Purpose: Aging increases risk for hearing loss, cognitive decline, and social isolation; however, the nature of their interconnection remains unclear. This study examined the interplay between age-related hearing loss, cognitive decline, and social isolation in adults by testing the ability to understand speech in background noise, a challenge…

Ayala, Samantha A.; Eads, Amanda; Kabakoff, Heather; Swartz, Michelle T.; Shiller, Douglas M.; Hill, Jennifer; Hitchcock, Elaine R.; Preston, Jonathan L.; McAllister, Tara – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2023
Purpose: This study collected measures of auditory-perceptual and oral somatosensory acuity in typically developing children and adolescents aged 9-15 years. We aimed to establish reference data that can be used as a point of comparison for individuals with residual speech sound disorder (RSSD), especially for RSSD affecting American English…

Background: The voice range profile (VRP) is an acoustic measurement in vocal function voice assessment. While several factors influencing VRP outcomes are known, the impact of body posture during VRP recordings remains unexplored. Aims: To investigate the effects of standing and sitting posture on VRP performance in vocally healthy individuals.…

Sarah E. Yoho; Tyson S. Barrett; Stephanie A. Borrie – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2023
Purpose: The ability to understand speech under adverse listening conditions is highly variable across listeners. Despite this, studies have found that listeners with normal hearing display consistency in their ability to perceive speech across different types of degraded speech, suggesting that, for at least these listeners, global skills may be…

Carmen María Sepúlveda-Durán; Pilar Martín-Lobo; Sandra Santiago-Ramajo – British Journal of Music Education, 2024
The aim of this study was to analyse whether specialised musical training influences auditory discrimination, working memory, learning strategies and academic performance. Sixty students (30 with at least four years of musical training and 30 without) of the same socioeconomic level were compared. Significant differences were found between…

Yuan, Chengan; Deng, Xiaolei; Zhu, Jing; Wang, Chongying – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2023
Instruction in auditory-visual conditional discriminations for young children with autism spectrum disorder is typically based on either a conditional-only or a simple-conditional method. In this study, we evaluated a modified simple-conditional method in which we removed the steps for which visual comparisons were presented in isolation. We…

Listening skill, which is known to be in a mutual relationship with reading aloud, reading comprehension, and pronunciation, manifests itself in the form of discriminative listening skill in the case of true beginners who have started to learn a foreign language. The aim of this research is to present learning outcomes aimed at improving the…

Lian June Arzbecker – ProQuest LLC, 2023
This dissertation explores the relationship between quantitative phonetic measurements and listener identification of accents of English, focusing on phonetic distance and its perceptual correlates across various English accent varieties. The Levenshtein distance (LD) measure, which quantifies string similarity by calculating the minimum cost of…

In order to demonstrate the effect of using podcasts on the development of A1 level students' oral reading, reading comprehension, pronunciation skills, and related discriminative listening skills of Turkish learners abroad, an 8-week podcast-supported listening practice was conducted with a group of 12 participants learning Turkish as an elective…

Background: Diadochokinetic (DDK) rate tasks are extensively used in the evaluation of speech disorders; however, it is unclear how the different types of speech stimuli affect DDK rate performance. Aims: To investigate the effect of age, gender and type of stimuli (non-words versus real words) on the DDK rates in individuals across the lifespan…
