PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Cochlear implants·2d agoCharacterizing the perceptual effect of changing phase duration: Is it place-pitch?CI clinicians should be cautious that adjusting phase duration for loudness fitting purposes may have perceptual side effects on pitch perception, though the clinical magnitude requires further study before protocol changes.

PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Cochlear implants·5w agoBinaural fusion and mis-identification of spatially separated concurrent vowels by cochlear implant usersCochlear implant users show elevated binaural fusion errors with spatially separated concurrent sounds, which may partly explain their poorer performance in cocktail-party listening situations; audiologists should factor this perceptual limitation into realistic...+Save
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Research (general)·3mo agoContribution of cognitive functions, musical abilities, and auditory scene analysis to speech-in-noise perceptionThese findings support the multi-factorial nature of speech-in-noise difficulties; audiologists should not attribute poor speech-in-noise performance solely to peripheral hearing loss, but current evidence is insufficient to change specific clinical test protocols.+Save
