Auditory compensation for head rotation is incomplete (2016)
Journal Article

Hearing is confronted by a similar problem to vision when the observer moves. The image motion that is created remains ambiguous until the observer knows the velocity of eye and/or head. One way the visual system solves this problem is to use motor c... Read More about Auditory compensation for head rotation is incomplete.

Lifetime leisure music exposure associated with increased frequency of tinnitus (2016)
Journal Article

Tinnitus has been linked to noise exposure, a common form of which is listening to music as a leisure activity. The relationship between tinnitus and type and duration of music exposure is not well understood. We conducted an internet-based populatio...

Domains relating to the everyday impact of hearing loss, as reported by patients or their communication partner(s): protocol for a systematic review (2016)
Journal Article

INTRODUCTION: Hearing loss is a highly prevalent condition that affects around 1 in 6 people in the UK alone. This number is predicted to rise by the year 2031 to a staggering 14.5 million people due to the ageing population of the UK. Currently, th...

The effects of hearing impairment, age, and hearing aids on the use of self motion for determining front/back location (2016)
Journal Article

Background: There are two cues that listeners use to disambiguate the front/back location of a sound source: high-frequency spectral cues associated with the head and pinnae, and self-motion‐related binaural cues. The use of these cues can be comp... Read More about The effects of hearing impairment, age, and hearing aids on the use of self motion for determining front/back location.

On detectable and meaningful speech-intelligibility benefits (2016)
Journal Article

The most important parameter that affects the ability to hear and understand speech in the presence of background noise is the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Despite decades of research in speech intelligibility, it is not currently known how much impr... Read More about On detectable and meaningful speech-intelligibility benefits.

The Glasgow Bene?t Inventory: a systematic review of the use and value of an otorhinolaryngological generic patient-recorded outcome measure (2016)
Journal Article

The Glasgow Benefit Inventory (GBI) is a validated, generic patient-recorded outcome measure widely used in otolaryngology to report change in quality of life post-intervention.To date, no systematic review has made (i) a quality assessment of report...

The just meaningful difference in speech-to-noise ratio (2016)
Journal Article

The speech-to-noise ratio (SNR) in an environment plays a vital role in speech communication for both normal-hearing (NH) and hearing-impaired (HI) listeners. While hearing-assistance devices attempt to deliver as favorable an SNR as possible, there... Read More about The just meaningful difference in speech-to-noise ratio.
