Geoff D. Green II; Ewa Jacewicz; Hendrik Santosa; Lian J. Arzbecker; Robert A. Fox – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2024
Purpose: We explore a new approach to the study of cognitive effort involved in listening to speech by measuring the brain activity in a listener in relation to the brain activity in a speaker. We hypothesize that the strength of this brain-to-brain synchrony (coupling) reflects the magnitude of cognitive effort involved in verbal communication…

Martinez-Alvarez, Anna; Benavides-Varela, Silvia; Lapillonne, Alexandre; Gervain, Judit – Developmental Science, 2023
Prosody is the fundamental organizing principle of spoken language, carrying lexical, morphosyntactic, and pragmatic information. It, therefore, provides highly relevant input for language development. Are infants sensitive to this important aspect of spoken language early on? In this study, we asked whether infants are able to discriminate…

Geoff D. Green II – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Due in part to its complex nature, there is still much to uncover in the investigation of the neural processes that contribute to synchronization between speakers and listeners during communication in the context of social cognition, specifically between native and nonnative English speakers and listeners. This study used a novel method of…

Sahil Luthra – ProQuest LLC, 2021
The role of the right hemisphere in phonetic processing is thought to be relatively minimal, at least in comparison to the role of the left hemisphere. However, the right hemisphere is known to play a critical role in vocal identity processing, a fact that is striking given that the acoustic-phonetic details of the speech signal can differ…

Gerwin, Katelyn L.; Brosseau-Lapré, Françoise; Weber, Christine – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: A growing body of research suggests that a deficit in speech perception abilities contributes to the development of speech sound disorder (SSD). However, little work has been done to characterize the neurophysiological processes indexing speech perception deficits in this population. The primary aim of this study was to compare the neural…

Green, Heather L.; Shen, Guannan; Franzen, Rose E.; Mcnamee, Marybeth; Berman, Jeffrey I.; Mowad, Theresa G.; Ku, Matthew; Bloy, Luke; Liu, Song; Chen, Yu-Han; Airey, Megan; McBride, Emma; Goldin, Sophia; Dipiero, Marissa A.; Blaskey, Lisa; Kuschner, Emily S.; Kim, Mina; Konka, Kimberly; Roberts, Timothy P. L.; Edgar, J. Christopher – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Maturation of auditory cortex neural encoding processes was assessed in children with typical development (TD) and autism. Children 6-9 years old were enrolled at Time 1 (T1), with follow-up data obtained ~ 18 months later at Time 2 (T2), and ~ 36 months later at Time 3 (T3). Findings suggested an initial period of rapid auditory cortex maturation…

Saul Alexander Frankford – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Stuttering is a developmental speech disorder characterized by interruptions of fluency. A large body of research suggests that stuttering occurs due to a reduced ability to generate timing signals in order to sequence speech sounds. One piece of supporting evidence for this is that when speaking along with an external timing source like a…

Virtala, Paula; Putkinen, Vesa; Gallen, Anastasia; Thiede, Anja; Trainor, Laurel J.; Kujala, Teija – Developmental Science, 2023
Familial risk for developmental dyslexia can compromise auditory and speech processing and subsequent language and literacy development. According to the phonological deficit theory, supporting phonological development during the sensitive infancy period could prevent or ameliorate future dyslexic symptoms. Music is an established method for…

Yuying Sun; Jia Zhou; Huiqin Zhu; Panting Liu; Huanxi Lin; Zhenglu Xiao; Xinyue Yu; Jun Qian; Meiling Tong; Xia Chi; Qin Hong – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2024
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the characteristics of auditory processing (AP) in preschool children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) using the speech auditory brainstem response (speech-ABR), which provides insights into the AP of speech signals in the central auditory nervous system (CANS). Method: A total of 84…

Hussain, Reesha Oovattil; Kumar, Prawin; Singh, Niraj Kumar – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: The aim of this study was to analyze the subcortical and cortical auditory evoked potentials for speech stimuli in children with speech-in-noise (SIN) deficits associated with auditory processing disorder (APD) without any reading or language deficits. Method: The study included 20 children in the age range of 9-13 years. Ten children…

Arenillas-Alcón, Sonia; Ribas-Prats, Teresa; Puertollano, Marta; Mondéjar-Segovia, Alejandro; Gómez-Roig, María Dolores; Costa-Faidella, Jordi; Escera, Carles – Developmental Science, 2023
Fetal hearing experiences shape the linguistic and musical preferences of neonates. From the very first moment after birth, newborns prefer their native language, recognize their mother's voice, and show a greater responsiveness to lullabies presented during pregnancy. Yet, the neural underpinnings of this experience inducing plasticity have…

Miller, Sharon E.; Graham, Jessica; Schafer, Erin – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: Auditory sensory gating is a neural measure of inhibition and is typically measured with a click or tonal stimulus. This electrophysiological study examined if stimulus characteristics and the use of speech stimuli affected auditory sensory gating indices. Method: Auditory event-related potentials were elicited using natural speech,…

This study mainly examined the role of the combination of three senses (i.e., auditory, visual, and tactile) and five senses (i.e., auditory, visual, tactile, olfactory, and gustatory) in the correlation between electrophysiological and electrodermal responses underlying second language (L2) sentence comprehension. Forty subjects did two…

François, Clément; Rodriguez-Fornells, Antoni; Teixidó, Maria; Agut, Thaïs; Bosch, Laura – Developmental Science, 2021
Recent findings have revealed that very preterm neonates already show the typical brain responses to place of articulation changes in stop consonants, but data on their sensitivity to other types of phonetic changes remain scarce. Here, we examined the impact of 7-8 weeks of extra-uterine life on the automatic processing of syllables in 20 healthy…

Weiland, Ricarda F.; Polderman, Tinca J. C.; Smit, Dirk J. A.; Begeer, Sander; Van der Burg, Erik – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2023
To facilitate multisensory processing, the brain binds multisensory information when presented within a certain maximum time lag (temporal binding window). In addition, and in audiovisual perception specifically, the brain adapts rapidly to asynchronies within a single trial and shifts the point of subjective simultaneity. Both processes, temporal…
