The outer hair cells of the organ of Corti are the target of abundant efferent projections from
the olivocochlear system. This peripheral efferent auditory subsystem is currently thought to …

Auditory processing disorder (APD) affects about 2–5% of children. However, the nature of
this disorder is poorly understood. Children with APD typically have difficulties in complex …

One of the putative functions of the medial olivocochlear (MOC) system is to enhance signal
detection in noise. The objective of this study was to elucidate the role of the MOC system in …

The medial olivocochlear reflex (MOCR) modulates cochlear amplifier gain and is thought to
facilitate the detection of signals in noise. High-resolution distortion product otoacoustic …

Auditory processing disorder (APD) is defined as a processing deficit in the auditory
modality and spans multiple processes. To date, APD diagnosis is mostly based on the …

It is well known that medial olivocochlear system (MOC) activity causes inhibition of cochlear
amplification that can be measured using otoacoustic emissions (OAEs). The temporal …

The present study investigated the ability of native listeners to identify subtle phonetic
contrasts in nonsense words and its relationship with the contralateral inhibition of transient …

Efferent feedback shapes afferent auditory processing. Auditory attention has been shown to
modulate medial olivocochlear (MOC) efferent activity in human adults. Since auditory …
