Informational masking in young and elderly listeners for speech masked by simultaneous speech and noise.
Three experiments measured the effects of age on informational masking of speech by competing speech. The experiments were designed to minimize the energetic contributions of the competing speech so that informational masking could be measured with no large corrections for energetic masking. Experiment 1 used a "speech-in-speech-in-noise" design, in which the competing speech was presented in n...
متن کاملNeural encoding and perception of speech signals in informational masking.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the contributions of energetic and informational masking to neural encoding and perception in noise, using oddball discrimination and sentence recognition tasks. DESIGN P3 auditory evoked potential, behavioral discrimination, and sentence recognition data were recorded in response to speech and tonal signals presented to nine normal-hearing adults. Stimuli were presen...
متن کاملspeech perception in noise mechanisms
background and aim: it will be discussed about five mechanisms in relation to speech in noise perception; including neural encoding and decoding, centrifugal pathways, pitch perception, asymmetric sampling in time and cognitive skills. these mechanisms are related to each other and each is important to recognize speech in noise. in this article, we have tried to rely on the latest studies to de...
متن کاملInterplay of informational content and energetic masking in speech perception in noise
It seems plausible that different regions of the speech signal convey different amounts of information. Understanding which aspects of the signal convey information is important for understanding speech perception, particularly when this occurs in noisy environments. The so called cochlea-scaled entropy (CSE) measure is an index of spoken information based on the distribution of spectral energy...
متن کاملEffect of contralateral noise on energetic and informational masking on speech-in-speech intelligibility
This experiment tested the advantage of binaural presentation of an interfering noise in a task involving identification of monaurally-presented words. These words were embedded in three types of noise: a stationary noise, a speech-modulated noise and a speech-babble noise, in order to assess energetic and informational masking contributions to binaural unmasking. Our results showed important i...
