Tinnitus prevalence in Europe: a multi-country cross-sectional population study (2021)
Journal Article
Biswas, R., Lugo, A., Akeroyd, M., Schlee, W., Gallus, S., & Hall, D. (2022). Tinnitus prevalence in Europe: a multi-country cross-sectional population study. Lancet Regional Health – Europe, 12, Article 100250. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.lanepe.2021.100250

Background Tinnitus prevalence studies report large variability across countries that might be due to inconsistent research methods. Our study aimed to report a single Pan-European estimate for tinnitus prevalence and investigate the effect of indiv...

The Utility of Economic Measures to Quantify the Burden of Tinnitus in Affected Individuals: A Scoping Review (2021)
Journal Article
Daoud, E., Caimino, C., Akeroyd, M. A., Noreña, A. J., & Baguley, D. M. (2022). The Utility of Economic Measures to Quantify the Burden of Tinnitus in Affected Individuals: A Scoping Review. PharmacoEconomics - Open, 6, 21-32. https://doi.org/10.1007/s41669-021-00273-8

Background and objectives Tinnitus is a chronic subjective condition that impacts patients’ health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and requires multidisciplinary interventions. In health economics, quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) and willingness...

Multiple spatial reference frames underpin perceptual recalibration to audio-visual discrepancies (2021)
Journal Article
Watson, D. M., Akeroyd, M. A., Roach, N. W., & Webb, B. S. (2021). Multiple spatial reference frames underpin perceptual recalibration to audio-visual discrepancies. PLoS ONE, 16(5), 1-21. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0251827

In dynamic multisensory environments, the perceptual system corrects for discrepancies arising between modalities. For instance, in the ventriloquism aftereffect (VAE), spatial disparities introduced between visual and auditory stimuli lead to a perc...

A set of equations for numerically calculating the interaural level difference in the horizontal plane (2021)
Journal Article
Akeroyd, M. A., Firth, J., Graetzer, S., & Smith, S. (2021). A set of equations for numerically calculating the interaural level difference in the horizontal plane. JASA Express Letters, 1(4), Article 044402. https://doi.org/10.1121/10.0004261

The variation of interaural level difference (ILD) with direction and frequency is particularly complex and convoluted. The purpose of this work was to determine a set of parametric equations that can be used to calculate ILDs continuously at any val...

Associations Between Hearing and Cognitive Abilities From Childhood to Middle Age: The National Child Development Study 1958 (2021)
Journal Article
Okely, J. A., Akeroyd, M. A., & Deary, I. J. (2021). Associations Between Hearing and Cognitive Abilities From Childhood to Middle Age: The National Child Development Study 1958. Trends in Hearing, 25, 1-19. https://doi.org/10.1177/23312165211053707

Previous cross-sectional findings indicate that hearing and cognitive abilities are positively correlated in childhood, adulthood, and older age. We used an unusually valuable longitudinal dataset from a single-year birth cohort study, the National C...
