The presence of VAHs is typically evaluated through clinical interviews and self-report measures such as the Auditory Hallucinations Risk Assessment Scale and the Psychotic Symptom Rating Scales2,3. Importantly,
Eleven patients were treated on monotherapy using one drug of antiepileptic drugs (carbamazepine or valproate sodium or levetiracetam), children typically start with 10–20 mg/kg per day, divided into two or three doses. The dose may increase by 5–10 mg/kg per week until seizures are ...
Finally, auditory cortex brain slices from adolescent HL animals reveal synaptic deficits that are distinct from those typically observed after critical period deprivation. Taken together, these results show that diminished adolescent sensory experience can cause long-lasting behavioral deficits that originate...
they serve to maintain appropriate air flow and consequently are essential to the overall health of the middle ear space. The bony confines of thenasopharynxare significantly smaller in children with Down syndrome than in typically developing children; however, the amount of soft tissue is similar ...
With small feature separation between the two sounds (marked by Δ on the figure) and slow-to-medium presentation rates (marked with the onset-to-onset interval, the Stimulus Onset Asynchrony on the figure), this sequence of sound is typically experienced as a single coherent stream (marked ...
Auditory Processing Disorder is an impaired ability to attend to, discriminate, remember, recognize, or comprehend information presented auditory in individuals who typically exhibit normal intelligence and normal hearing (Keith, 1995). This processing disorder can interfere with speech and language skills...
Persistent stuttering is a neuro-developmental disorder that typically has its onset in early childhood (3–5 years of age). Therefore a thorough understanding of this disorder can only be obtained through investigating the speech motor behaviors in children who stutter. As such, a...
Several factors have been reported to negatively affect the ability to discriminate frequencies in CI users. First, the auditory system of CI users typically suffers from pervasive neural degeneration due to long-term deafness before the implantation. This inadequate peripheral input to the auditory cor...
For this study the binaural-beat stimulation did not have a significant impact on attention, but participants reported subjectively experiencing less problems associated with inattention during the study period (5). Unfortunately, one of the main limitations of this study was that ...
Cued Speech (CS) is a communication system that uses manual gestures to facilitate lipreading. In this study, we investigated how CS information interacts with natural speech using Event-Related Potential (ERP) analyses in French-speaking, typically hearing adults (TH) who were either naïve or...
