Neural generators underlying concurrent sound segregation.

TL;DR: A beamformer spatial filter is applied to magnetoencephalography data recorded during an auditory paradigm that used inharmonicity to promote the formation of multiple auditory objects to suggest that these neural populations are distinct from the long latency evoked responses reflecting the detection of sound onset.
Journal ArticleDOI

Different neural activities support auditory working memory in musicians and bilinguals

TL;DR: Overall, spatial and nonspatial WM were associated with greater activity in dorsal and ventral brain regions, respectively and indicate that the auditory WM advantage in musicians and bilinguals is mediated by different neural networks specific to each life experience.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sleep-dependent neuroplastic changes during auditory perceptual learning

TL;DR: In this paper, the amplitude and latencies of the resulting source waveforms were examined as a function of sleep and passage of time, showing that auditory learning involves a consolidation phase that occurs during the wake state, which is followed by a sleep-dependent consolidation stage indexed by the P2m amplitude.
Posted ContentDOI

Afferent-efferent connectivity between auditory brainstem and cortex accounts for poorer speech-in-noise comprehension in older adults

TL;DR: The strength of afferent BS→PAC neural signaling varied with mild declines in hearing acuity and this “bottom-up” functional connectivity robustly predicted older adults’ SIN perception.
Journal ArticleDOI

Auditory feature conjunction in patients with schizophrenia

TL;DR: The neural mechanisms supporting performance during single feature and feature conjunction tasks were investigated in patients with schizophrenia and age-matched controls using event-related brain potentials and suggest controlled processes compensate for processes normally carried out by early perceptual mechanisms.
