Auditory training can improve working memory, attention, and communication in adverse conditions for adults with hearing loss (2015)
Journal Article
Ferguson, M. A., & Henshaw, H. (2015). Auditory training can improve working memory, attention, and communication in adverse conditions for adults with hearing loss. Frontiers in Psychology, 6, Article 556. https://doi.org/10.3389/FPG.2015.00556

Auditory training (AT) helps compensate for degradation in the auditory signal. A series of three high-quality training studies are discussed, which include, (i) a randomized controlled trial (RCT) of phoneme discrimination in quiet that trained adul...
