In the last decades, many investigations were done to examine the effects of sensorineural hearing loss on the speech perception ability. Besides testing hearing impaired persons, there is also the possibility to simulate the hearing loss. Therefore, some electrophysiological as well as speech recognition studies were performed in normal hearing subjects using techniques to model the sensorineural...
In clinical practice, an objective method to assess listening effort is still not available. The benefit of such a measure would be to reduce the listening effort in hearing impaired persons by an adequate adaption of their personal hearing aids. In foregoing studies, we have shown that the wavelet phase synchronization stability (WPSS) of auditory late responses (ALRs) could serve as a feasible measure...
The basic approaches to fit hearing aids were commonly based on findings of how young persons hear sounds in ideal conditions. In order to improve hearing aid fitting methods, the focus of the new approaches should be based on auditory processing and cognition information of older adults. In previous studies with young subjects, employing tonebursts and in noise embedded syllabic paradigms, we have...
