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…

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…

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…

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…

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…

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…

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…

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…

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…

Mollaei, Fatemeh; Shiller, Douglas M.; Baum, Shari R.; Gracco, Vincent L. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2019
Purpose: We recently demonstrated that individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD) respond differentially to specific altered auditory feedback parameters during speech production. Participants with PD respond more robustly to pitch and less robustly to formant manipulations compared to control participants. In this study, we investigated whether…

Tabachnick, Alexandra R.; Toscano, Joseph C. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2018
Purpose: A central question about auditory perception concerns how acoustic information is represented at different stages of processing. The auditory brainstem response (ABR) provides a potentially useful index of the earliest stages of this process. However, it is unclear how basic acoustic characteristics (e.g., differences in tones spanning a…

Ramage, Amy E.; Aytur, Semra; Ballard, Kirrie J. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2020
Purpose: Brain imaging has provided puzzle pieces in the understanding of language. In neurologically healthy populations, the structure of certain brain regions is associated with particular language functions (e.g., semantics, phonology). In studies on focal brain damage, certain brain regions or connections are considered sufficient or…

Papagiannopoulou, Eleni A.; Lagopoulos, Jim – Annals of Dyslexia, 2017
To elucidate the timing and the nature of neural disturbances in dyslexia and to further understand the topographical distribution of these, we examined entire brain regions employing the non-invasive auditory oddball P300 paradigm in children with dyslexia and neurotypical controls. Our findings revealed abnormalities for the dyslexia group in…

Diaz, Michele T.; Yalcinbas, Ege – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2021
Although hearing often declines with age, prior research has shown that older adults may benefit from multisensory input to a greater extent when compared to younger adults, a concept known as inverse effectiveness. While there is behavioral evidence in support of this phenomenon, less is known about its neural basis. The present functional MRI…

Gaskins, Casey; Jaekel, Brittany N.; Gordon-Salant, Sandra; Goupell, Matthew J.; Anderson, Samira – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2019
Purpose: As pulse rate increases beyond a few hundred Hertz, younger normal-hearing (NH) participants' ability to encode temporal information in band-limited acoustic pulse trains decreases, demonstrating a rate limitation in processing rapid temporal information. Rate discrimination abilities, however, have yet to be investigated in older NH…
