  2. Auditory system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auditory_system

    In children, early diagnosis and treatment of impaired auditory system function is an important factor in ensuring that key social, academic and speech/language developmental milestones are met. [43] Impairment of the auditory system can include any of the following: Auditory brainstem response and ABR audiometry test for newborn hearing

  3. Auditory feedback - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auditory_feedback

    Auditory feedback (AF) is an aid used by humans to control speech production and singing by helping the individual verify whether the current production of speech or singing is in accordance with his acoustic-auditory intention. This process is possible through what is known as the auditory feedback loop, a three-part cycle that allows ...

  4. Neural encoding of sound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neural_encoding_of_sound

    Their primary function is mechanotransduction, or conversion between mechanical and neural signals. The relatively small number of the auditory hair cells is surprising when compared to other sensory cells such as the rods and cones of the visual system. Thus the loss of a lower number (in the order of thousands) of auditory hair cells can be ...

  5. Speech acquisition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speech_acquisition

    Hazan and Barrett (2000) [6] suggest that this development can cotton into late childhood; 6- to 12-year-old children showed increasing mastery of discriminating synthesized differences in place, manner, and voicing of speech sounds without yet achieving adult-like accuracy in their own production.

  6. Hearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hearing

    Hearing, or auditory perception, is the ability to perceive sounds through an organ, such as an ear, by detecting vibrations as periodic changes in the pressure of a surrounding medium. [1] The academic field concerned with hearing is auditory science .

  7. Sensory integration therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_integration_therapy

    Her book Sensory Integration and the Child, first published in the 1970s, was a means of helping families, therapists, and educators of children with sensory-processing difficulties and sensory processing disorders to better organize and improve self-regulation of body and environmental sensory inputs. [1] [2]

  8. Auditory phonetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auditory_phonetics

    Auditory phonetics is the branch of phonetics concerned with the hearing of speech sounds and with speech perception.It thus entails the study of the relationships between speech stimuli and a listener's responses to such stimuli as mediated by mechanisms of the peripheral and central auditory systems, including certain areas of the brain.

  9. Auditosensory cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auditosensory_cortex

    There is a strong association between the cerebral cortex and auditory function. Animal studies have shown that extirpation of the auditosensory cortex leads to the loss of responsiveness to previously learnt tones. [16] The locations of auditory cortical neurones and conformations of the primary auditory cortex are unique to every individual.
