A self-contained, self-fitting hearing aid (SFHA) is a device that enables the user to perform both threshold measurements leading to a prescribed hearing aid setting and fine-tuning, without the need for audiological support or access to o...
Informational Masking in Normal-Hearing and Hearing-Impaired Listeners Measured in a Nonspeech Pattern Identification Task [0.03%]
正常听力和听力受损的受试者在非言语信号识别任务中信息掩蔽现象的测量

Self-reports of subjective hearing difficulties by people with hearing loss may be a useful complement to audiometry in hearing aid rehabilitation. To be useful, such self-reports need to be reliable. This study investigated the reliability...
Open Versus Closed Hearing-Aid Fittings: A Literature Review of Both Fitting Approaches [0.03%]
开式和闭式助听器适配方法:兼论两种适配方式的文献综述
Alexandra Winkler,Matthias Latzel,Inga Holube
Alexandra Winkler
One of the main issues in hearing-aid fittings is the abnormal perception of the user's own voice as too loud, "boomy," or "hollow." This phenomenon known as the occlusion effect be reduced by large vents in the earmolds or by open-fit hear...
Dynamic Range Across Music Genres and the Perception of Dynamic Compression in Hearing-Impaired Listeners [0.03%]
不同音乐类型中的动态范围及听障者对动态压缩的感知能力

Harmonic Frequency Lowering: Effects on the Perception of Music Detail and Sound Quality [0.03%]
谐波频率降低对音乐细节感知和声音质量的影响
Martin Kirchberger,Frank A Russo
Martin Kirchberger
A novel algorithm for frequency lowering in music was developed and experimentally tested in hearing-impaired listeners. Harmonic frequency lowering (HFL) combines frequency transposition and frequency compression to preserve the harmonic c...
