Journal Article
Moore, D. R., Zobay, O., Mackinnon, R. C., Whitmer, W. M., & Akeroyd, M. A. (2017). Lifetime leisure music exposure associated with increased frequency of tinnitus. Hearing Research, 347, 18-27. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.heares.2016.10.030

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...

Heritability of non-speech auditory processing skills (2016)
Journal Article
Brewer, C. C., Zalewski, C. K., King, K. A., Zobay, O., Riley, A., Ferguson, M. A., …Moore, D. R. (2016). Heritability of non-speech auditory processing skills. European Journal of Human Genetics, 24(8), https://doi.org/10.1038/ejhg.2015.277

Recent insight into the genetic bases for autism spectrum disorder, dyslexia, stuttering, and language disorders suggest that neurogenetic approaches may also reveal at least one etiology of auditory processing disorder (APD). A person with an APD ty... Read More about Heritability of non-speech auditory processing skills.

Visuospatial working memory mediates inhibitory and facilitatory guidance in preview search (2016)
Journal Article
Barrett, D. J., Shimozaki, S. S., Jensen, S., & Zobay, O. (in press). Visuospatial working memory mediates inhibitory and facilitatory guidance in preview search. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 42(10), https://doi.org/10.1037/xhp0000239

Visual search is faster and more accurate when a subset of distractors is presented before the display containing the target. This “preview benefit” has been attributed to separate inhibitory and facilitatory guidance mechanisms during search. In the...
