  1. 1. I Can’t Hear What I’m Reading: An Eye Tracking Study on Reading in Different Noise Environments

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för psykologi

    Author : Nina Pallasch; [2023]
    Keywords : Reading Process; Auditory Noise; Pseudohomophone Advantage; Eye Tracking; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : This study investigates how different acoustic environments and spelling manipulations affect the reading process by applying eye tracking methodology. Participants are asked to read sentences while either listening to babble noise or not being exposed to any acoustic stimuli. READ MORE

  2. 2. The influence of working memory on the quality of linguistic predictions during speech understanding in adverse listening conditions : Comparing cortical responses using MEG

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Karin Allander; [2022]
    Keywords : Speech understanding; Linguistic predictions; Working memory; ELU-model;

    Abstract : Speech understanding is a fundamental human ability that enable flexible communication among individuals. Understanding natural speech in normal conditions is a fast and automatic process. It is facilitated through integration between prior knowledge about a speech signal and multimodal speech inputs.

  3. 3. Is music listening associated with our cognitive abilities? : A study about how auditory working memory, speech-in-noise perception and listening habits are connected

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap; Linköpings universitet/Filosofiska fakulteten

    Author : Alma Savander; [2020]
    Keywords : auditory working memory; speech-in-noise perception; listening habits;

    Abstract : This study explores whether hours listening to music of young adults with self-reported normal hearing is associated with auditory working memory and if hours listening to music and auditory working memory can predict speech-in-noise perception. Thirty native Swedish speaking university students with self-reported normal hearing in the ages ranging from 21 to 29 years old (M= 23. READ MORE

  4. 4. Does working memory capacity correlate with processing of auditory distractors under low versus high visual load?

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Psykologiska institutionen

    Author : Rasmus Skarp; [2018]
    Keywords : working memory capacity; perceptual load; processing; ASSR; auditory steady state responses; EEG;

    Abstract : Individuals with high working memory capacity (WMC) appear to be particularly good at focusing their attention (McCabe, Roediger, McDaniel, Balota, & Hambrick, 2010). Therefore, we studied the correlation between WMC and the ability to suppress neurological activity from a task-irrelevant stimulus. READ MORE

  5. 5. Data representation for fluorescence guided stereotactic brain tumor biopsies : Development and evaluation of a visual and auditory user interface

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk teknik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Michaela Maintz; [2018]
    Keywords : Fluorescence spectroscopy; stereotactic brain tumor biopsies; intraoperative monitoring; user interface; auditory and visual data representation;

    Abstract : Background and Objective In stereotactic brain tumor biopsies, the combination of real-time fluorescence spectroscopy with the detection of microvascular perfusion using laser Doppler flowmetry provides an improved localization of the brain tumor while decreasing the risk of intra-cranial hemorrhage. The surgeon using the measurement probe is required to view signal values on a screen or usually, when her or his visual focus is directed at the patient, the verbal feedback of a biomedical engineer who is monitoring the measurement signals is needed.
