The ability to recognize masked speech, commonly measured with a speech reception
threshold (SRT) test, is associated with cognitive processing abilities. Two cognitive factors …

Background and Methods. Cisplatin (cis-diamminedichloroplatinum) has been reported to
enhance the cell-killing effect of radiation, an effect whose intensity varies with the schedule of …

It is generally recognized that poor results of speech-in-noise tests by hearing-impaired
persons cannot be fully explained by the elevated pure-tone hearing threshold. Plomp has …

A method is described to select sentence materials for efficient measurement of the speech
reception threshold (SRT). The first part of the paper addresses the creation of the sentence …

Objectives: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the influence of age, hearing loss,
and cognitive ability on the cognitive processing load during listening to speech presented in …

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of sentence intelligibility on
the pupil dilation response during listening. Task-induced pupil-dilation reflects explicit …

Speech comprehension includes both bottom–up and top–down processes, and imaging
studies have isolated a frontal–temporal network of brain areas active during speech …
