Electrophysiological Gap Detection Thresholds: Effects of Age and Comparison with a Behavioral Measure
Material type: TextOnline resources: In: Journal of the American Academy of Audiology Volume 25, Number 10, 2014Subject: Background: Temporal processing ability has been linked to speech understanding ability and older adults often complain of difficulty understanding speech in difficult listening situations. Temporal processing can be evaluated using gap detection procedures. There is some research showing that gap detection can be evaluated using an electrophysiological procedure. However, there is currently no research establishing gap detection threshold using the N1-P2 response.
