Book The Noisiness of Tones Plus Noise

Download or read book The Noisiness of Tones Plus Noise written by Karl S. Pearsons and published by . This book was released on 1968 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A series of judgment tests were conducted to investigate subjective judgments of single, modulated and multiple tones plus noise. The subjects were asked to judge which of two sounds, tones plus noise or noise alone, was noisier (or in some cases louder). Stimuli included both broadband and octave band noises together with single tones at 250, 500, 1000, 2000, 4000 Hz. Amplitude and frequency-modulated tones of 500 and 2000 Hz were also employed. Multiple tone stimuli included 2 and 5 tone complexes with overall frequency spacings of 1/10, 1/3, 1, 4/3 and 2 octaves. Analysis of the judgment results were made using calculated perceived noise level and pure tone correction procedures suggested both by Little, and by Kryter and Pearsons. In general, the pure tone corrections were necessary, the exception being situations in which the pure tone is added to an octave band of noise. In one test series; however, the pure tone adjustment appears to overcorrect in all conditions. The effect of the instruction set was marked. The addition of a pure tone to noise had less effect on judgments of loudness and more effect on judgments of noisiness. The average difference was 5 dB. Modulated tones showed little difference from those of unmodulated tones, except at low modulation rates which produced annoying beats. For multiple tones there appeared to be no difference in people's assessment of harmonic and non-harmonically related tone complexes. Although the noisiness increases somewhat with increase in number of tones, this effect does not require modification of the present pure tone correction methods."--Summary.

Book Auditory Efferent System  New Insights from Cortex to Cochlea

Download or read book Auditory Efferent System New Insights from Cortex to Cochlea written by Paul H. Delano and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2016-09-06 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main function of the sensory systems is the transducing of external stimuli into bioelectrical signals, which are conducted through afferent pathways from sensory epithelia to the brain. However, it is known that descending projections are ubiquitous in the different sensory modalities, and in the case of auditory efferents connect the cerebral cortex with sensory receptor cells. Several functions have been attributed to the efferent system, including protection to acoustic trauma, unmasking of auditory stimuli in background noise, balance of interaural sensitivity and some cognitive functions like modulation of cochlear sensitivity during selective attention to auditory or visual stimuli. In addition there is evidence of a possible involvement of the efferent system in the etiology or treatment of some clinical pathologies like tinnitus. In this e-book, entitled “Auditory Efferent System: New Insights from Cortex to Cochlea”, we aimed to give an overview of the advances concerning the descending projections from the auditory cortex to subcortical nuclei and the olivocochlear system. In addition, different theoretical proposals of efferent functions are presented. We think that this e-book is an important contribution to the understanding of the efferent system in mammals, merging auditory-cortex literature with studies performed in the olivocochlear system.

Download or read book The Behavioral Neuroscience of Tinnitus written by Grant D. Searchfield and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-08-29 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The origins of tinnitus and the development of effective treatments to treat tinnitus have puzzled scientists and clinicians for centuries. Now ground breaking research is beginning to unlock its secrets. The Behavioral Neuroscience of Tinnitus provides critical and comprehensive discussions of the most recent developments in behavioral neuroscience research of tinnitus. Each chapter represents the most important contemporary account of the subject, with an emphasis on preclinical and clinical trials for the development of new diagnostics and therapeutics. New and emerging innovative approaches are covered whenever possible. Six topics are discussed in detail in this volume, which provide new insights in the etiology and mechanisms of tinnitus, new biomarkers towards objective and reliable diagnosis of tinnitus, pharmacological approaches towards curing tinnitus, bioengineering advances towards developing effective medical devices, as well as the latest in psychotherapy methods. The reviews in the volume expose researchers and clinicians, both new and experienced, to exciting advancements and state-of-the-art developments from preeminent researchers in the field of tinnitus.

Book Ringing ears  the neuroscience of tinnitus

Download or read book Ringing ears the neuroscience of tinnitus written by Jos J. Eggermont and published by Frontiers E-books. This book was released on with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tinnitus (ringing in the ears) is a prevalent and often debilitating disorder with approximately 10% of people (incorporating ages from children to the elderly) perceiving it continuously, and in 1-3% of the population it seriously affects the quality of life. The most common cause of tinnitus is hearing loss, and its prevalence has surged as a result from the various large-scale military actions in the Middle East in the last decade. Recent advances have been made in the area of behavioral animal models, in the understanding of human brain imaging aspects of tinnitus, and in addressing the long-range changes in human brain connectivity. Furthermore continued exploration of the three major animal models of tinnitus: salicylate-induced, noise trauma induced, and resulting from somatic interactions with the auditory system has further delineated the relative roles of cochlear activity vs. central auditory system changes. Evidence for the role of neural synchrony changes in tinnitus originates both from human EEG and MEG studies as well as from neuron pair-correlation studies in animals.
