Auditory processing and perception refers to our ability to process and interpret sound information received from the environment. It is relied upon by a large majority for effective communication and ...

Researchers identify a brain pathway in humans that enables rapid, unconscious fear responses to scary sounds, similar to visual fear shortcuts.

Studies on misophonia have compared the newly termed disorder to Obsessive Compulsive and Related Disorders, synesthesia, anger management problems, disorders related to impulse control, and ...

Summary: It’s a common reflex: to hear a faint sound better, we squeeze our eyes shut. However, new research suggests this strategy actually backfires in noisy environments. By monitoring brain ...

In a recent article published in Nature, researchers investigated the early maturation of sound duration processing, a crucial auditory temporal feature. Study: Early maturation of sound duration ...

Computational models that mimic the structure and function of the human auditory system could help researchers design better hearing aids, cochlear implants, and brain-machine interfaces. A new study ...

Increasing the expression of a protein responsible for maintaining neuron health led to better-than-normal processing of auditory information, according to a new study. The findings open the door to ...

Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD) is a condition that affects how the brain processes auditory information, even in the presence of normal hearing.
