Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most prevalent cause of dementia which affects
a growing number of people worldwide. Early identification of people at risk to develop AD …

We investigated the impact of hearing loss on the neural processing of speech. Using a
forward modelling approach, we compared the neural responses to continuous speech of 14 …

Early assessment of hearing aid benefit is crucial, as the extent to which hearing aids
provide audible speech information predicts speech and language outcomes. A growing …

Age-related hearing loss is one of the most prevalent health conditions in older adults.
Although hearing aid technology has advanced dramatically, a large percentage of older …

Objectives: Understanding speech in adverse listening environments is challenging for older
adults. Individual differences in pure tone averages and working memory are known to be …

Behavioral tests are currently the gold standard in measuring speech intelligibility. However,
these tests can be difficult to administer in young children due to factors such as motivation …

Background Sensory gating is a measure used to evaluate inhibitory deficits underlying
neurological disorders. However, the effects of hearing loss (HL), thought to decrease …

Factors affecting successful listening in older adults and the corresponding
electrophysiological signatures are not well understood. The present study investigated age …

Objective To explore if experience with hearing aid (HA) amplification affects speech-evoked
cortical potentials reflecting comprehension abilities. Design N400 and late positive complex …

Strong links between hearing and cognitive function have been confirmed by a growing
number of cross-sectional and longitudinal studies. Seniors with age-related hearing loss …
