    Abstract : In daily life, people need to be able to focus on a task while ignoring any task-irrelevant background noise. For example, people who work in an open-space office may have to work on a report while ignoring the background talk among co-workers. READ MORE

  2. 2. Auditory event-related potentials and cognitive outcome after very preterm birth

    Author : Holger Hövel; Lund Pediatrik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Preterm; Event-related potentials; Mismatch negativity; Magnetic resonance imaging; developmental outcome;

    Abstract : Children born before 32 gestational weeks have a high incidence of neuropsychological deficits. The structural and functional correlates of such impairments in preterm infants are incompletely understood, and early diagnostic tools are needed, but still lacking. READ MORE

  4. 4. Assessment of central auditory functions : methods and applications

    Author : Mathias Hällgren; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Central auditory processing is complex and can not be completely evaluated by a single method. This thesis focuses on assessment of some aspects of central auditory functions by the use of dichotic speech tests, cognitive tests that tax functions important for speech processing and electrophysiological tests.

  5. 5. Neurophysiological conditions for hearing in children using hearing aids or cochlear implants : an intervention and follow-up study

    Author : Elisabet Engström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : OBJECTIVES: The four studies in this thesis examine the central auditory pathways in children with hearing loss (HL) through recording event-related potentials (ERP) and mismatch negativity (MMN). The design of the project is partly experimental, and it also includes an intervention part and a follow-up-study after three years. READ MORE
