Perceptual plasticity in adverse listening conditions : factors affecting adaptation to accented and noise-vocoded speech
Year: 2016
Type: dissertation
Abstract: Adverse listening conditions can be a hindrance to communication, but humans are remarkably adept at overcoming them.Research has begun to uncover the cognitive and behavioural mechanisms behind this perceptual plasticity, but we still do not fully understand the reasons for variability in individual responses.The research reported in this thesis addressed several factors which would further this understanding.
