Daily rhythm of temporal resolution in the auditory system.

چکیده
Over a period of 24 hours, fusion thresholds (click durations 100 micros) were assessed in 7 subjects. Over the same period, order thresholds (click duration of 1 ms) were measured in 10 subjects (12 independent sessions). Auditory fusion thresholds showed a diurnal rhythm with a maximum performance (shortest intervals) around midnight. In contrast, order thresholds appear to be independent on the time of day. Sex specific differences in threshold levels were only observed in order thresholds but not in fusion thresholds.

Effects of ageing on speed and temporal resolution of speech stimuli in older adults
Background: According to previous studies, most of the speech recognition disorders in older adults are the results of deficits in audibility and auditory temporal resolution. In this paper, the effect of ageing on timecompressed speech and auditory temporal resolution by word recognition in continuous and interrupted noise was studied. Methods: A time-compressed speech test (TCST) w...
متن کاملAuditory Temporal Processing Abilities in Early Azari-Persian Bilinguals
Introduction: Auditory temporal resolution and auditory temporal ordering are two major components of the auditory temporal processing abilities that contribute to speech perception and language development. Auditory temporal resolution and auditory temporal ordering can be evaluated by gap-in-noise (GIN) and pitch-pattern-sequence (PPS) tests, respectively. In this survey, the effect of biling...
متن کاملCorrelation between Auditory Spectral Resolution and Speech Perception in Children with Cochlear Implants
Background: Variability in speech performance is a major concern for children with cochlear implants (CIs). Spectral resolution is an important acoustic component in speech perception. Considerable variability and limitations of spectral resolution in children with CIs may lead to individual differences in speech performance. The aim of this study was to assess the correlation between auditory ...

متن کاملTemporal Processing Evaluation in Tinnitus Patients: Results on Analysis of Gap in Noise and Duration Pattern Test
Introduction: Tinnitus is a perception of sound without external source. For complete assessment of tinnitus, central auditory processing abilities should be considered in addition to the routine psychological evaluation of tinnitus characteristics. Temporal processing is one of the important auditory skills that are necessary for complex higher level auditory processing. Materials and Method...
