Sensitivity to temporal fine structure (TFS) at low frequencies may be adversely affected by
hearing loss at high frequencies even when absolute thresholds at low frequencies are …

Recent perceptual studies suggest that listeners with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL)
have a reduced ability to use temporal fine-structure cues, whereas the effects of SNHL on …

Everyday speech perception is challenged by external acoustic interferences that hinder
verbal communication. Here, we directly compared how different levels of the auditory …

Recent evidence suggests that sensitivity to the temporal fine structure (TFS) of sounds is
adversely affected by cochlear hearing loss. This may partly explain the difficulties …

Objective: To extend the study of Hopkins and Moore (2011) by examining the effect of age
in the medium age range on sensitivity to temporal fine structure (TFS), which is assumed to …

Speech communication usually occurs in the presence of background noise. This study
examined noise tolerance in the brainstem's processing of voice pitch, as reflected by the …

The ability of auditory-nerve (AN) fibers to encode modulation frequencies, as characterized
by temporal modulation transfer functions (TMTFs), generally shows a low-pass shape with …

Speech reception thresholds (SRTs) were measured with a competing talker background for
signals processed to contain variable amounts of temporal fine structure (TFS) information …

The ability to process binaural temporal fine structure (TFS) information was assessed using
the TFS-AF test (where AF stands for adaptive frequency) for 26 listeners aged 60 years or …

The ability of normally hearing and hearing-impaired subjects to use temporal fine structure
information in complex tones was measured. Subjects were required to discriminate a …
