Training to improve hearing speech in noise: biological mechanisms.
- PsychologyCerebral cortex
- 2012
It is provided the first demonstration that short-term training can improve the neural representation of cues important for speech-in-noise perception and the biological mechanisms mediating these improvements implicate and delineate biological mechanisms contributing to learning success.
Plasticity in the Adult Human Auditory Brainstem following Short-term Linguistic Training
- BiologyJournal of Cognitive Neuroscience
- 2008
Increased accuracy in pitch tracking after training is found, including a decrease in the number of pitch-tracking errors and a refinement in the energy devoted to encoding pitch, as native English-speaking adults learn to incorporate foreign speech sounds in word identification.
Clinical correlations and utility of the auditory brainstem response Auditory brainstem function has been linked to language impairment
- Psychology, Biology

Because it is both passively elicited and malleable, the speech-evoked brainstem response may serve as a clinical tool to assess auditory processing as well as the effects of auditory training in the ASD population.

Short-Term Learning and Memory: Training and Perceptual Learning
- Psychology

The frequency-following response (FFR) is a sustained auditory-evoked potential that reflects the phase locking of neurons in the auditory brainstem to periodicities in the waveform of a sound.…
Human Brainstem Exhibits higher Sensitivity and Specificity than Auditory-Related Cortex to Short-Term Phonetic Discrimination Learning
- Psychology, BiologyScientific Reports
- 2017
Brainstem signal change correlated with the behavioral improvement during training, this result indicating a close relationship between behavior and underlying brainstem physiology, and results point to specific short-term brainstem changes that precede functional alterations in the auditory cortex.
Neural Correlates of Perceptual Learning in the Auditory Brainstem: Efferent Activity Predicts and Reflects Improvement at a Speech-in-Noise Discrimination Task
- PsychologyThe Journal of Neuroscience

The findings suggest an MOCB-mediated listening strategy that facilitates speech-in-noise perception that is flexible and susceptible to training, presumably because of task-related adaptation of descending control from the cortex.
Correlation between brainstem and cortical auditory processes in normal and language-impaired children.
- Psychology, BiologyBrain : a journal of neurology
- 2005
A relatively normal relationship between brainstem and cortical auditory processing in most LP children, as well as the exceptions to this relationship reflected by a smaller portion ofLP children, may delineate different subclasses of auditory-language-based learning problems.
Neural Timing Is Linked to Speech Perception in Noise
- PsychologyThe Journal of Neuroscience
- 2010
It is demonstrated that neural timing is disrupted by background noise and that greater disruptions are associated with the inability to perceive speech in challenging listening conditions.
Developmental Plasticity in the Human Auditory Brainstem
- PsychologyThe Journal of Neuroscience
- 2008
It is suggested that the human auditory system exhibits developmental plasticity, in both frequency and time domains, for sounds that are composed of acoustic elements relevant to speech.

Differences in the rate of P1/N 1/N2 latency and amplitude development do not appear to be distinctive in these two populations, and the relationship between P1-N1/n2 parameters and standardized measures of learning provides new information about the role of these responses in hearing and highlights the potential value in characterizing auditory processing deficits.
Auditory Neurophysiologic Responses and Discrimination Deficits in Children with Learning Problems
- PsychologyScience
- 1996
Impaired behavioral discrimination of a rapid speech change (/dα/versus/gα/) was correlated with diminished magnitude of an electrophysiologic measure that is not dependent on attention or a voluntary response, indicating that some children's discrimination deficits originate in the auditory pathway before conscious perception.
