This study investigates whether distributing sounds across more distinct spatial locations improves auditory subitizing, finding a tradeoff between accuracy and response speed across two spatial configurations.
Exposure to misophonic trigger sounds selectively degrades binaural dichotic listening performance in adults with misophonia, with no effect observed in healthy controls
We use a naturalistic audio foundation model and explainability analyses to show spatial- and spectral cues are encoded at different model stages, and show a difference in relevant frequency regions for localisation- versus classification tasks.
Neural and behavioural measures of binaural processing improve with larger interaural time differences in children, with no clear differences between those with and without a history of otitis media.
Short-term changes in hearing thresholds and speech-in-noise performance were observed in young adults exposed to FPS gameplay, as measured using mobile hearing tests.
This study reconciles diverging findings on spectral weighting in sound localization by measuring weighting functions in the free-field across multiple stimulus types.
Human confidence in auditory judgments reflects internal estimates of perceptual uncertainty and closely matches the uncertainty predicted by models optimized for real-world listening tasks.
This study established that Virtual Acoustic Space Identification (VASI) and the spatial domain of the SSQ scale are highly accurate tools for diagnosing spatial hearing deficits in individuals with sensorineural hearing loss, with VASI recommended as the primary objective clinical measure.
Regression modelling reveals a statistically significant contribution of interaural cue distortion to perceived music quality with simulated hearing aids and hearing loss.
Contralateral sound attenuation significantly improves speech intelligibility for hearing-aid users and normal-hearing listeners in "cocktail party" listening environments.
Extended training with synchronized temporal fine-structure cues produces rate-dependent improvements in interaural timing sensitivity in bilateral cochlear implant users.
