// Differential Effects of Aging and Hearing Loss on Two Speech-Based Binaural Processes: Spectro-Temporal Integration and Interaural Cue-Based Unmasking
本研究探討年齡與聽力損失對雙耳語音感知中光譜時序整合與雙耳遮蔽消除兩大過程的影響｜結果顯示年齡主要削弱光譜時序整合能力，聽力損失則降低基於雙耳相位差(IPD)的遮蔽消除效果｜兩者彼此獨立且對反覆刺激反應不同，顯示有不同神經機制支持，強調新型稀疏語音刺激對評估中樞聽覺老化的重要性。
// This study investigated how aging and hearing loss affect two binaural speech perception processes: spectro-temporal integration and interaural cue-based unmasking, using novel dichotic speech and antiphasic noise tests. Results showed that aging primarily impairs binaural spectro-temporal integration, while hearing loss mainly reduces interaural phase difference (IPD)-based binaural unmasking. These two binaural abilities were uncorrelated and showed different responses to repeated exposure. The findings suggest distinct neural mechanisms underlie these processes and highlight the value of sparse atomic speech stimuli for assessing central auditory aging.
