de Paz, Carlos; Travieso, David – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2023
Sensory substitution devices (SSDs) facilitate the detection of environmental information through enhancement of touch and/or hearing capabilities. Research has demonstrated that several tasks can be successfully completed using acoustic, vibrotactile, and multimodal devices. The suitability of a substituting modality is also mediated by the type…

Chon, HeeCheong; Jackson, Eric S.; Kraft, Shelly Jo; Ambrose, Nicoline G.; Loucks, Torrey M. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to test whether adults who stutter (AWS) display a different range of sensitivity to delayed auditory feedback (DAF). Two experiments were conducted to assess the fluency of AWS under long-latency DAF and to test the effect of short-latency DAF on speech kinematic variability in AWS. Method: In Experiment 1,…

Swann, Zoe; Daliri, Ayoub; Honeycutt, Claire F. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: The StartReact effect, whereby movements are elicited by loud, startling acoustic stimuli (SAS), allows the evaluation of movements when initiated through involuntary circuitry, before auditory feedback. When StartReact is applied during poststroke upper extremity movements, individuals exhibit increased muscle recruitment, reaction…

Van Eeckhoutte, Maaike; Scollie, Susan; O'Hagan, Robin; Glista, Danielle – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2020
Purpose: The aim of the study was to investigate the achieved audibility with clinically available, modern, high-end, behind-the-ear hearing aids fitted using the Desired Sensation Level v5.0 child prescription for a clinical sample of children with hearing impairment and the effect of the extended bandwidth provided by the hearing aids on several…

Smith, Gregory W.; Classen, Audra I. – Journal of Ethnographic & Qualitative Research, 2018
Since the early part of the 20th century, researchers in the fields of cognitive psychology and education have studied the ill-effect of noise on the social, physiological, and psychological aspects of the human psyche. In order for academic progress to take place, it is important for all teachers to select instructional methods and accommodations…

Quinn, Mallory J.; Miltenberger, Raymond G.; Fogel, Victoria A. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2015
Behavioral research to enhance sports performance has been conducted in numerous sports domains and often involves feedback from the coach to the student. One promising form of feedback is the use of an acoustical stimulus such as a clicker to provide more immediate feedback. Similar to clicker training with animals, acoustical stimuli are used…

Shafiro, Valeriy; Sheft, Stanley; Kuvadia, Sejal; Gygi, Brian – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2015
Purpose: The study investigated the effect of a short computer-based environmental sound training regimen on the perception of environmental sounds and speech in experienced cochlear implant (CI) patients. Method: Fourteen CI patients with the average of 5 years of CI experience participated. The protocol consisted of 2 pretests, 1 week apart,…
