2. Assistive listening device - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assistive_Listening_Device

   Hearing aids are able to amplify and process these sounds, and improve the speech to noise ratio. However, if the sound is too distorted by the time it reaches the listener, even the best hearing aids will struggle to unscramble the signal. Assistive listening devices offer a more adaptive alternative to hearing aids, but can be more complex ...

3. Audio induction loop - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_induction_loop

   A hearing loop consists of one or more physical loops of cable which are placed around a designated area, usually a room or a building. The cable generates an electromagnetic field throughout the looped space which can be picked up by a telecoil-equipped hearing aid, a cochlear implant (CI) processor, or a specialized hand-held hearing loop receiver for individuals without telecoil-compatible ...

4. Assistive Technology for Deaf and Hard of Hearing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assistive_Technology_for...

   With Frequency Modulation (FM) systems, the sound is transmitted on a specific frequency or channel similar to a radio. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has designated specific frequencies for these types of systems. There are now small receivers than can be connected directly to a person's hearing aids through Direct Audio Input ...

5. Minimum audibility curve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum_audibility_curve

   Minimum audibility curve is a standardized graph of the threshold of hearing frequency for an average human, and is used as the reference level when measuring hearing loss with an audiometer as shown on an audiogram.

6. Electronic fluency device - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_fluency_device

   There is little experimental evaluation of the therapeutic effect of AAF on children who stutter: one study noted that effects of FAF were less in children than adults. [39] Given the lack of evidence of its effectiveness, as well as concerns about the impact of altered feedback on developing speech and language systems, some authors have ...

7. Equivalent rectangular bandwidth - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_rectangular...

   The equivalent rectangular bandwidth or ERB is a measure used in psychoacoustics, which gives an approximation to the bandwidths of the filters in human hearing, using the unrealistic but convenient simplification of modeling the filters as rectangular band-pass filters, or band-stop filters, like in tailor-made notched music training (TMNMT).

8. Adult attention deficit hyperactivity disorder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adult_attention_deficit...

   Adult Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is the persistence of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) into adulthood. It is a neurodevelopmental disorder, meaning impairing symptoms must have been present in childhood, except for when ADHD occurs after traumatic brain injury.

9. Auditory feedback - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auditory_feedback

   Auditory feedback allows one to monitor their speech and rectify production errors quickly when they identify one, making it an important component of fluent speech productions. [1] The role of auditory feedback on speech motor control is often investigated by exposing participants to frequency-altered feedback. Inducing brief and unpredictable ...
