The following is a transcript of the presentation video, edited for clarity. I’m going to talk about speech understanding in simulations of complex environments by my implant patients. My disclosure slide says that the work is supported both by the NIDCD and cochlear implant companies who pay my staff salaries,...
Auditory scene analysis facilitates the ability to perceive sound events in the environment, such as when listening to your friend talking in a noisy restaurant. Neural processes must account for the dynamics of such situations. This presentation will out The following is a transcript of the presentation video, edited for...
This presentation focuses on the cocktail party problem and understanding why listeners with sensorineural hearing loss experience great difficulty in solving this problem The following is a transcript of the presentation video, edited for clarity. Thank you Karen, and thank you for inviting me here I appreciate it. And thanks...
This presentation describes the maturation of hearing in complex, multi-source acoustic environments and age-related changes in the ability to selectively attend and speech-in-speech recognition The following is a transcript of the presentation video, edited for clarity. Thank you very much to Karen for inviting me to present today. And I...
This presentation focuses on speech perception outcomes when people with one or two cochlear implants listen in test environment simulations of restaurants and cocktail parties The following is a transcript of the presentation video, edited for clarity. I’m going to talk about speech understanding in simulations of complex environments by...
This presentation describes research regarding factors that exacerbate or help to mitigate the difficulty older adults experience understanding speech in the presence of competing talkers I’m Karen Helfer from the University of Massachusetts and today I’m going to be talking about aging and how aging affects speech understanding. The two...
One of the cool things of my lab is that there are so many different people. There’s a good number of engineers, a good number of audiologists, but we also interact with people with a background in computational linguistics or physiology, sometimes basic physiologists. The name of my lab is...
Researchers can get started with community-based participatory research approaches by seeking out and incorporating the knowledge of clients into their research questions and study designs What is consumer-informed research? The traditional idea of research is that it’s investigator initiated. And so researchers, who may have differing levels of engagement in...
This talk focuses on the parallels and differences in early risk markers, developmental trajectories and neurocognitive mechanisms in autism and specific language impairment The following is a transcript of the presentation video, edited for clarity. The overview of my talk is I’ll start by introducing Autism Spectrum Disorder and then...
I think one continuing question, and one that we’ve had for a long time is, “Why do older people have difficulty understanding speech?” What exactly changes with age? Is it hearing loss? Is it attenuation from peripheral hearing loss? Is it something else going on in the cochlea? Is it...
The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) is the national professional, scientific, and credentialing association for 241,000 members, certificate holders, and affiliates who are audiologists; speech-language pathologists; speech, language, and hearing scientists; audiology and speech-language pathology assistants; and students.
The ASHA Teaching, Learning, and Research Hub is a repository of resources to support academic, clinical and research education in communication sciences and disorders (CSD).
