Journal ArticleDOI
Object-based auditory and visual attention
TL;DR: The same principles that govern visual perception can explain many seemingly disparate auditory phenomena, and similarity suggests that the same neural mechanisms control attention and influence perception across different sensory modalities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Attentional Selection in a Cocktail Party Environment Can Be Decoded from Single-Trial EEG
James O’Sullivan,Alan J. Power,Nima Mesgarani,Siddharth Rajaram,John J. Foxe,Barbara G. Shinn-Cunningham,Malcolm Slaney,Shihab A. Shamma,Edmund C. Lalor +8 more
TL;DR: It is shown that single-trial unaveraged EEG data can be decoded to determine attentional selection in a naturalistic multispeaker environment and a significant correlation between the EEG-based measure of attention and performance on a high-level attention task is shown.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selective attention in normal and impaired hearing.
TL;DR: Peripheral hearing deficits are likely to cause a number of interrelated problems that challenge the ability of HL listeners to communicate in social settings requiring selective attention.
Journal ArticleDOI
Task-modulated what and where pathways in human auditory cortex
Jyrki Ahveninen,Iiro P. Jääskeläinen,Iiro P. Jääskeläinen,Tommi Raij,Giorgio Bonmassar,Sasha Devore,Matti Hämäläinen,Sari Levänen,Fa-Hsuan Lin,Mikko Sams,Barbara G. Shinn-Cunningham,Thomas Witzel,John W. Belliveau +12 more
TL;DR: A double dissociation in response adaptation to sound pairs with phonetic vs. spatial sound changes is found, demonstrating that the human nonprimary auditory cortex indeed processes speech-sound identity and location in parallel anterior “what” and posterior “where” pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI
Note on informational masking (L)
Nathaniel I. Durlach,Christine R. Mason,Gerald Kidd,Tanya L. Arbogast,H. Steven Colburn,Barbara G. Shinn-Cunningham +5 more
TL;DR: In this letter, consideration is given to the problems of defining IM and specifying research that is needed to better understand and model IM.
