Music perception by cochlear implant and normal hearing listeners as measured by the Montreal Battery for Evaluation of Amusia.

30 Jul 2008 OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to explore the utility/possibility of using the Montreal Battery for Evaluation of Amusia (MBEA) test (Peretz, et al., Ann N Y Acad Sci, 999, 58-75) to assess the music perception abilities of cochlear ... Read more...

Cognitive impairment correlates to low auditory event-related potential amplitudes in type 1 diabetes.

20 Jul 2008 Type 1 diabetes may be associated with a mild decline in cognitive function and mostly in mental speed. In order to study the pathophysiology of this, we have investigated auditory event-related potentials (AERP) and their relation to cognitive ... Read more...

An auditory processing abnormality specific to liability for schizophrenia.

18 Jun 2008 Abnormal brain activity during the processing of simple sounds is evident in individuals with increased genetic liability for schizophrenia; however, the diagnostic specificity of these abnormalities has yet to be fully examined. Because recent ... Read more...

Technical information about 'Auditory Perceptual Disorders'

Definition: Acquired or developmental cognitive disorders of AUDITORY PERCEPTION characterized by a reduced ability to perceive information contained in auditory stimuli despite intact auditory pathways. Affected individuals have difficulty with speech perception, sound localization, and comprehending the meaning of inflections of speech.
