概括
增加说话者的变性对耳植入物 (CI) 用户的语音识别产生负面影响,特别是在杂的环境中. 工作记忆容量对于CI用户理解不同说话者的语音能力至关重要.
科学领域:
- 听力学 听力学是指听力学.
- 神经科学是一个神经科学.
- 语音和听力科学 语言和听力科学
背景情况:
- 成年耳植入物 (CI) 用户的语音识别评估通常使用低说话者可变性材料.
- 对于高说话者变异性对CI用户语音识别和个体差异的影响的理解有限.
- 对于CI使用者来说,高说话变异性句子材料的临床实用性仍未得到充分研究.
研究的目的:
- 评估说话者变异性对成年CI用户句子识别的影响.
- 研究工作记忆容量与在高可变性条件下的语音识别之间的关系.
- 为了评估成年CI用户使用感知强度英语句子测试开放集 (PRESTO) 以不同的说话者可变性.
主要方法:
- 成年CI用户和正常听力 (NH) 成年人在CI模拟下完成了语音识别测试.
- 测试包括听力与噪音测试 (HINT;低可变性),AzBio (中度可变性) 和PRESTO (高可变性) 句子.
- 测试发生在安静和多人喋喋不休 (MTB) 中;在CI用户中评估工作记忆能力.
主要成果:
- 在CI和NH组中,语音识别性能随着说话者的变化增加而下降.
- 与HINT和AzBio.相比,PRESTO句子在多人喋喋不休 (MTB) 中表现明显较低.
- 工作记忆能力与CI使用者的句子识别准确度相关,在所有条件下.
结论:
- 特别是在PRESTO材料中,说话者的高变性会对CI用户和模拟NH听众的语音识别产生不利影响,特别是在背景噪音的情况下.
- 工作记忆能力是成年CI用户语音识别能力的一个重要因素.
- 像PRESTO这样的高可变性,多语者句子测试提供了一个强大的临床和研究工具,用于评估CI用户的语音识别和个人差异,而没有天花板效应.

Auditory Perception
357
The auditory system is essential for sound perception, utilizing various critical structures. When sound waves enter the outer ear, they travel through the ear canal and cause the eardrum to vibrate. These vibrations are then transmitted to the middle ear, where three tiny bones – the malleus, incus, and stapes – amplify the sound. This amplification is crucial, as it ensures that the sound vibrations are strong enough to be conveyed to the inner ear. These vibrations then reach the...

Perceiving Loudness, Pitch, and Location
233
The human brain perceives pitch through two primary mechanisms reflected in place theory and frequency theory. Each mechanism describes how sound waves are interpreted as specific pitches by the brain, offering insights into the intricate processes of auditory perception.
Place theory, or place coding, suggests that different pitches are heard because various sound waves activate specific locations along the cochlea's basilar membrane. The brain determines the pitch of a sound by...

Pulse Oximetry
352
Pulse oximetry, or SpO2, is a non-invasive method for continuously monitoring arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2). This procedure involves attaching a probe or sensor to the patient's fingertip, forehead, earlobe, or nose bridge. The sensor works by detecting changes in oxygen saturation levels through light signals generated by the oximeter and reflected by the pulsing blood under the probe.
Purpose
Average SpO2 values are greater than 95%. If the readings fall below 90%, it indicates that...
