Frequency selectivity, temporal fine-structure (TFS) processing, and speech reception were
assessed for six normal-hearing (NH) listeners, ten sensorineurally hearing-impaired (HI)
listeners with similar high-frequency losses, and two listeners with an obscure dysfunction
(OD). TFS processing was investigated at low frequencies in regions of normal hearing,
through measurements of binaural masked detection, tone lateralization, and monaural
frequency modulation (FM) detection. Lateralization and FM detection thresholds were …
