Infants' localization of sounds in the median sagittal plane: effects of signal frequency.

The purpose of this research was to determine if infants, like adults, show differential localization performance in the median sagittal plane (MSP) as a function of the spectrum of the signal. Infants 6-18 months of age were seated in a dark room facing an array of nine loudspeakers, with one loudspeaker positioned at ear level, 0 degrees, and four each positioned above and below ear level at 4 degrees, 8 degrees, 12 degrees, and 16 degrees. A two-alternative, forced-choice procedure was used in which a sequence of noise bursts was presented at 0 degrees and then shifted vertically, above or below 0 degrees, and continued to be presented until the infant made a directional head and/or eye movement; correct responses were visually reinforced. For each of three bandpass noise conditions (less than 4 kHz, 4-8 kHz, 8-12 kHz), minimum audible angle (MAA) for each listener, i.e., the smallest of the four angular shifts in vertical sound location that the listener could reliably detect, was estimated. Results indicated that MAA systematically decreased with increasing age, revealing an increasingly finer partitioning of auditory space. Moreover, performance at each age revealed the importance of high frequencies for localization in the MSP. Infants did not reliably localize the low-pass signal (less than 4 kHz) and showed the best performance to the signal comprising the highest frequencies (8-12 kHz). These findings reveal systematic age-related improvements in sound localization abilities during infancy, and suggest that spectral cues similar to those for adults operate for infants in vertical localization.

Blind subjects process auditory spectral cues more efficiently than sighted individuals.

The goal of the present study was to investigate how monaural sound localization on the horizontal plane in blind humans is affected by manipulating spectral cues. As reported in a previous study (Lessard et al. 1998), blind subjects are able to calibrate their auditory space despite their congenital lack of vision. Moreover, the performance level of half of the blind subjects was superior to that of sighted subjects under monaural listening conditions. Here, we first tested ten blind subjects and five controls in free-field (1) binaural and (2) monaural sound localization tasks. Results showed that, contrary to controls and half the blind subjects, five of the blind listeners were able to localize the sounds with one ear blocked. The blind subjects who showed good monaural localization performances were then re-tested in three additional monaural tasks, but we manipulated their ability to use spectral cues to carry out their discrimination. These subjects thus localized these same sounds: (3) with acoustical paste on the pinna, (4) with high-pass sounds and unobstructed pinna and (5) with low-pass sounds and unobstructed pinna. A significant increase in localization errors was observed when their ability to use spectral cues was altered. We conclude that one of the reasons why some blind subjects show supra-normal performances might be that they more effectively utilize auditory spectral cues.

Stretched and upside-down maps of auditory space in the optic tectum of blind-reared owls; acoustic basis and behavioral correlates.

Vision during early life plays an important role in calibrating sound localization behavior. This study investigates the effects of visual deprivation on sound localization and on the neural representation of auditory space. Nine barn owls were raised with eyelids sutured closed; one owl was congenitally anophthalmic. Data from these birds were compared with data from owls raised with normal visual experience. Sound localization behavior was significantly less precise in blind-reared owls than in normal owls. The scatter of localization errors was particularly large in elevation, though it was abnormally large in both dimensions. However, there was no systematic bias to the localization errors measured over a range of source locations. This indicates that the representation of auditory space is degraded in some way for blind-reared owls, but on average is properly calibrated. The spatial tuning of auditory neurons in the optic tectum was studied in seven of the blind-reared owls to assess the effects of early visual deprivation on the neural representation of auditory space. In normal owls, units in the optic tectum are sharply tuned for sound source location and are organized systematically according to the locations of their receptive fields to form a map of auditory space. In blind-reared owls, the following auditory properties were abnormal: (1) auditory tuning for source elevation was abnormally broad, (2) the progression of the azimuths and elevations of auditory receptive fields across the tectum was erratic, and (3) in five of the seven owls, the auditory representation of elevation was systematically stretched, and in the two others large portions of the representation of elevation were flipped upside down. The following unit properties were apparently unaffected by blind rearing: (1) the sharpness of tuning for sound source azimuth, (2) the orientation of the auditory representation of azimuth, and (3) the mutual alignment of the auditory and visual receptive fields in the region of the tectum representing the area of space directly in front of the animal. The data demonstrate that the brain is capable of generating an auditory map of space without vision, but that the normal precision and topography of the map depend on visual experience. The space map results from the tuning of tectal units for interaural intensity differences (IIDs) and interaural time differences (ITDs; Olsen et al., 1989).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Available response choices affect localization of sound.

Successful replication of an experiment by Butler and Humanski (1992) showed that listeners are able to proficiently localize sources on a lateral vertical plane on the basis of interaural differences alone. When a lateral horizontal array was included in the test setup, that finding was replicated only for a broadband signal interacting with the pinna, not for ones (lowpass and pure tone) providing only interaural differences. Cross-plane errors conforming to "cones of confusion" were observed for those latter sounds. In a second experiment, response options were made more unconstrained, which clarified the nature of the cross-plane confusions. Lowpass signals from lateral vertical plane sources tend to be heard at or close to the horizon. Measurement of cue values needs to take account of the response options available to listeners, as well as signal properties.

Localization of sound in rooms, II: The effects of a single reflecting surface.

Auditory localization was studied in a room bounded by a single acoustically reflective surface. The position of that surface was varied so as to stimulate a floor, a ceiling, and left and right side walls. The surface was eliminated in one condition so that we could examine localization in free field for purposes of comparison. Using a source identification method we assessed the influences of these various room configurations on the localization of both slow-onset and impulsive sine tones of low frequency (500 Hz). We also measured the steady-state interaural-time-difference (ITD) and interaural-intensity-difference (IID) cues available to subjects in the different room configurations and compared these data with the perceptual judgments. Our results indicate the following: (1) A sound must include transients if the precedence effect is to operate as an aid to its localization in rooms. (2) Even if transients are present the precedence effect does not eliminate all influences of room reflections. (3) Due to the interference of reflections large interaural intensity differences may occur in a room and these have a considerable influence on localization; this is true even at low frequencies for which IID cues do not exist in a free field. (4) Listeners appear to have certain expectations about the reliability and plausibility of various directional cues and perceptually weight the cues accordingly; we suggest that this may explain, in part, the large variation in time-intensity trading ratios reported in the literature and also the differing reports regarding the importance of onsets for localization. (5) In this study we find that onset cues are of some importance to localization even in free field.

Bilateral cochlear implants in children: localization acuity measured with minimum audible angle.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate sound localization acuity in a group of children who received bilateral (BI) cochlear implants in sequential procedures and to determine the extent to which BI auditory experience affects sound localization acuity. In addition, to investigate the extent to which a hearing aid in the nonimplanted ear can also provide benefits on this task. DESIGN: Two groups of children participated, 13 with BI cochlear implants (cochlear implant + cochlear implant), ranging in age from 3 to 16 yrs, and six with a hearing aid in the nonimplanted ear (cochlear implant + hearing aid), ages 4 to 14 yrs. Testing was conducted in large sound-treated booths with loudspeakers positioned on a horizontal arc with a radius of 1.5 m. Stimuli were spondaic words recorded with a male voice. Stimulus levels typically averaged 60 dB SPL and were randomly roved between 56 and 64 dB SPL (+/-4 dB rove); in a few instances, levels were held fixed (60 dB SPL). Testing was conducted by using a "listening game" platform via computerized interactive software, and the ability of each child to discriminate sounds presented to the right or left was measured for loudspeakers subtending various angular separations. Minimum audible angle thresholds were measured in the BI (cochlear implant + cochlear implant or cochlear implant + hearing aid) listening mode and under monaural conditions. RESULTS: Approximately 70% (9/13) of children in the cochlear implant + cochlear implant group discriminated left/right for source separations of <or=20 degrees , and, of those, 77% (7/9) performed better when listening bilaterally than with either cochlear implant alone. Several children were also able to perform the task when using a single cochlear implant, under some conditions. Minimum audible angle thresholds were better in the first cochlear implant than the second cochlear implant listening mode for nearly all (8/9) subjects. Repeated testing of a few individual subjects over a 2-yr period suggests that robust improvements in performance occurred with increased auditory experience. Children who wore hearing aids in the nonimplanted ear were at times also able to perform the task. Average group performance was worse than that of the children with BI cochlear implants when both ears were activated (cochlear implant + hearing aid versus cochlear implant + cochlear implant) but not significantly different when listening with a single cochlear implant. CONCLUSIONS: Children with sequential BI cochlear implants represent a unique population of individuals who have undergone variable amounts of auditory deprivation in each ear. Our findings suggest that many but not all of these children perform better on measures of localization acuity with two cochlear implants compared with one and are better at the task than children using the cochlear implant + hearing aid. These results must be interpreted with caution, because benefits on other tasks as well as the long-term benefits of BI cochlear implants are yet to be fully understood. The factors that might contribute to such benefits must be carefully evaluated in large populations of children using a variety of measures.

Tracking of a "moving" fused auditory image under conditions that elicit the precedence effect.

Pursuit auditory tracking of a fused auditory image (FAI), based on stimulus conditions known to elicit the precedence effect phenomenon in sound localization, was investigated in 36 normal subjects and in a small group of subjects with known neuropathology. Movement of the FAI was simulated by incrementally varying the delay between two clicks presented, one each, from two loudspeakers placed on opposite sides of the listener. The group of normal listeners tracked the movement of the FAI without difficulty and with great accuracy; the perceived location of the FAI varied linearly with the interspeaker delay. The sensitivity of the task in detecting neural timing or integration deficits was investigated in 5 subjects with neuropathology, including subjects with unilateral temporal lobe lesions, multiple sclerosis, or dyslexia. These disorders, previously shown to disrupt neural timing, yielded characteristic patterns of tracking inaccuracy for this task. These subjects had no difficulty localizing either a moving unitary click source or sounds in daily life. These data support the suggestion that sound localization using stimulus conditions known to elicit the precedence effect places greater demands on neural timing and integration than conventional tests of localization, and may provide a more sensitive index of neural function.

Bilateral cochlear implants in adults and children.

OBJECTIVE: To measure the benefit (ie, sound localization and speech intelligibility in noise) of bilateral cochlear implants (CIs) in adults and in children. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PATIENTS: Seventeen adults and 3 children underwent testing 3 months after activation of bilateral hearing. Adults received their devices in a simultaneous procedure and children in sequential procedures (3-8 years apart). Adults underwent testing of sound localization and speech intelligibility, with a single CI and bilaterally. Children underwent testing of sound localization, right/left discrimination, and speech intelligibility, with the first CI alone and bilaterally. We used computer games to attract the children's attention and engage them in the psychophysical tasks for long periods of time. RESULTS: Preliminary findings suggest that, for adults, bilateral hearing leads to better performance on the localization task, and on the speech task when the noise is near the poorer of the 2 ears. In children, localization and discrimination are slightly better under bilateral conditions, but not remarkably so. On the speech tasks, 1 child did not benefit from bilateral hearing. Two children showed consistent improvement with bilateral hearing when the noise was near the side that underwent implantation first. CONCLUSIONS: Bilateral CIs may offer advantages to some listeners. The tasks described in this study might offer a powerful tool for measuring such advantages, especially in young children. The extent of the advantage, however, is difficult to ascertain after 3 months of bilateral listening experience, and might require a more prolonged period of adjustment and learning. Future work should be aimed at examining these issues.

The contribution of the near and far ear toward localization of sound in the sagittal plane.

Eight listeners were required to locate a train of 4.5-kHz high-pass noise bursts emanating from loudspeakers positioned +/- 30, +/- 20, +/- 10, and 0 deg re: interaural axis. The vertical array of loudspeakers was placed at 45, 90, and 135 deg left of midline. The various experimental conditions incorporated binaural and monaural listening with the latter utilizing the ear nearest or ear farthest from the sound source. While performance excelled when listening with only the near ear, the contribution of the far ear was statistically significant when compared to localization performance when both ears were occluded. Based on head related transfer functions for stimuli whose bandwidth was 1.0 kHz, four spectral cues were selected as candidates for influencing location judgments. Two of them associated relative changes in energy across center frequencies (CFs) with vertical source positions. The other two associated an absolute minimum (maximum) energy for specific CFs with a vertical source position. All but one cue when measured for the near ear could account for localization proficiency. On the other hand, when listening with the far ear, maximum energy at a specific CF outperformed the remaining cues in accounting for localization proficiency.

Binaural application of the bone-anchored hearing aid.

Most, but not all, hearing-impaired patients with air conduction hearing aids prefer binaural amplification instead of monaural amplification. The binaural application of the bone conduction hearing aid is more disputable, because the attenuation (in decibels) of sound waves across the skull is so small ( 10 dB) that even one bone conduction hearing aid will stimulate both cochleas approximately to the same extent. Binaural fitting of the bone-anchored hearing aid was studied in three experienced bone-anchored hearing aid users. The experiments showed that sound localization, and speech recognition in quiet and also under certain noisy conditions improved significantly with binaural listening compared to the monaural listening condition. On the average, the percentage of correct identifications (within 45 degrees ) in the sound localization experiment improved by 53% with binaural listening; the speech reception threshold in quiet improved by 4.4 dB. The binaural advantage in the speech-in-noise test was comparable to that of a control group of subjects with normal hearing listening monaurally versus binaurally. The improvements in the scores were ascribed to diotic summation (improved speech recognition in quiet) and the ability to separate sounds in the binaural listening condition (improved sound localization and improved speech recognition in noise whenever the speech and noise signals came from different directions). All three patients preferred the binaural bone-anchored hearing aids and used them all day.

Auditory response properties in the superior paraolivary nucleus of the gerbil.

The ascending auditory pathway is characterized by parallel processing. At the brain stem level, several structures are involved that are known to serve different well-defined functions. However, the function of one prominent brain stem nucleus, the rodent superior paraolivary nucleus (SPN) and its putative homologue in other mammals, the dorsomedial periolivary nucleus, is unknown. Based on extracellular recordings from anesthetized gerbils, we tested the role of the SPN in sound localization and temporal processing. First, the existence of binaural inputs indicates that the SPN might be involved in sound localization. Although almost half of the neurons exhibited binaural interactions (most of them excited from both sides), effects of interaural time and intensity differences (ITD; IID) were weak and ambiguous. Thus a straightforward function of SPN in sound localization appears to be implausible. Second, inputs from octopus and multipolar/stellate cells of the cochlear nucleus and from principal cells of the medial nucleus of the trapezoid body could relate to precise temporal processing in the SPN. Based on discharge types, two subpopulations of SPN cells were observed: about 60% of the neurons responded to pure tones with sustained discharges, with irregular spike patterns and no phase-locking. Only four neurons showed a regular spike pattern ("chopping"). About 40% of the neurons responded with phasic ON or OFF discharges. Average first spike latency observed in neurons with sustained discharges was significantly shorter than that of ON responders, but had a considerably higher trial-to-trial variation ("jitter"). A subpopulation of ON responders showed a jitter of less than +/-0.1 ms. Most neurons (66%) responded to sinusoidally amplitude-modulated sounds (SAM) with an ongoing response, phase-locked to the stimulus envelope. Again, ON responders showed a significantly higher temporal precision in the phase-locked discharge compared with the sustained responders. High variability was observed among spike-rate-based modulation transfer functions. Histologically, a massive concentration of cytochemical markers for glycinergic input to SPN cells was demonstrated. Application of glycine or its blockade revealed profound effects of glycinergic inhibition on the auditory responses of SPN neurons. The existence of at least two subpopulations of neurons is in line with different subsets of SPN cells that can be distinguished morphologically. One temporally less precise population might modulate the processing of its target structures by providing a rather diffuse inhibition. In contrast, precise ON responders might provide a short, initial inhibitory pulse to its targets.

Forebrain pathway for auditory space processing in the barn owl.

The forebrain plays an important role in many aspects of sound localization behavior. Yet, the forebrain pathway that processes auditory spatial information is not known for any species. Using standard anatomic labeling techniques, we used a "top-down" approach to trace the flow of auditory spatial information from an output area of the forebrain sound localization pathway (the auditory archistriatum, AAr), back through the forebrain, and into the auditory midbrain. Previous work has demonstrated that AAr units are specialized for auditory space processing. The results presented here show that the AAr receives afferent input from Field L both directly and indirectly via the caudolateral neostriatum. Afferent input to Field L originates mainly in the auditory thalamus, nucleus ovoidalis, which, in turn, receives input from the central nucleus of the inferior colliculus. In addition, we confirmed previously reported projections of the AAr to the basal ganglia, the external nucleus of the inferior colliculus (ICX), the deep layers of the optic tectum, and various brain stem nuclei. A series of inactivation experiments demonstrated that the sharp tuning of AAr sites for binaural spatial cues depends on Field L input but not on input from the auditory space map in the midbrain ICX: pharmacological inactivation of Field L eliminated completely auditory responses in the AAr, whereas bilateral ablation of the midbrain ICX had no appreciable effect on AAr responses. We conclude, therefore, that the forebrain sound localization pathway can process auditory spatial information independently of the midbrain localization pathway.

[Hearing function in patients with disseminated sclerosis].

The hearing function in 32 patients with various forms of disseminated sclerosis was measured. Their hearing sensitivity, loudness and discrimination as well as spatial hearing and ability to localize sound sources were determined. In the absence of changes in hearing sensitivity, loudness and discrimination all the patients displayed marked disorders or complete loss of their capability to localize sound sources in the vertical plane but retained their capability to localize sound sources in the horizontal plane. Therefore, in contrast to the widely recognized concept that the hearing function in patients with disseminated sclerosis remains intact, spatial hearing impairment should be viewed as a pathognomonic symptom which is very important for diagnosing it at all stages of its development, including the earliest stages.

Auditory inattention in right-hemisphere-damaged patients with and without visual neglect.

Fifteen right-hemisphere-damaged patients, eight with- and seven without visual neglect (N+ and N-, respectively), were assessed for the presence of auditory neglect using free-field bilateral simultaneous stimulation (BSS) and pseudorandom unilateral stimulation. Eight healthy subjects served as controls. Both N+ and N- groups extinguished left-sided sound stimuli in the BSS condition. N+ (but not N-) patients showed a right-side advantage in sound localization and were inferior, compared to normal individuals, in their ability to localize unilaterally administered sounds on the left side. Blindfolding significantly improved the localization performance. In a task demanding stimulus identification, both N+ and N- groups performed abnormally when auditory stimuli came from the left. Free-field stimulation is thus an adequate technique for the detection of auditory neglect. The results are consistent with the notion that left-sided neglect reflects a pathologically exaggerated attentional bias towards the right in normal individuals.

Visual localization of sounds.

Circumscribed hemispheric lesions in the right hemisphere have been shown to impair auditory spatial functions. Due to a strong crossmodal links that exist between vision and audition, in the present study, we have hypothesized that multisensory integration can play a specific role in recovery from spatial representational deficits. To this aim, a patient with severe auditory localization defect was asked to indicate verbally the spatial position where the sound was presented. The auditory targets were presented at different spatial locations, at 8 degrees, 24 degrees, 40 degrees, 56 degrees to either sides of the central fixation point. The task was performed either in a unimodal condition (i.e., only sounds were presented) or in crossmodal conditions (i.e., a visual stimulus was presented simultaneously to the auditory target). In the crossmodal conditions, the visual cue was presented either at the same spatial position as the sound or at 16 degrees or 32 degrees, nasal or temporal, of spatial disparity from the auditory target. The results showed that a visual stimulus strongly improves the patient's ability to localize the sounds, but only when it was presented in the same spatial position of the auditory target.

Localization of sound in rooms, III: Onset and duration effects.

The steady-state sound field of a sine tone does not provide useful localization information in a room. Nevertheless, listeners can localize a sine tone in a room if it has an onset transient which allows the precedence effect to operate. In the present study, we made a quantitative assessment of onsets and the precedence effect by systematically varying onset duration from 0 s (impulsive), where the precedence effect is maximal, to 5 s, where there is no precedence effect at all. We also assessed listeners' sensitivity to the steady-state sound field under impulsive conditions by varying the total duration of tone pulses. Our experiments were conducted in a room with a single acoustical reflection having various directions and delays, and in an anechoic room. The results for tones of various frequencies (500 and 2000 Hz) and sound-pressure levels (65 and 40 dBA) indicate the following: Localization in rooms is facilitated by onsets even if the onsets are as long as 100 ms. The facilitation depends upon the peak intensity of the tone, as well as the onset duration, suggesting that onset rate is critical for the precedence effect; our results are most consistent with rate expressed as an increase in sound pressure per unit time. The facilitation also depends upon the reflection delay time for a room; gradual onsets take on much more importance for the precedence effect in rooms with long delays. As onsets begin to lose their effectiveness listeners become increasingly "misdirected" by invalid cues in the steady-state sound field. The pattern of misdirection suggests a perceptual averaging of cues over an interval more than an order of magnitude longer than previous estimates of the summation window for the precedence effect. The pattern of misdirection varies with the frequency of a tone, due to frequency-dependent interference effects in a room, but it is independent of signal level. Localization of an impulsive sine tone in rooms is very insensitive to the pulse duration; this suggests that binaural inhibition models of the precedence effect must be supplemented by an evaluative component that we term the "plausibility hypothesis."

Bilateral cochlear implantation: current concepts.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Recent experience has shown an advantage of bilateral cochlear implantation over unilateral implantation. These documented benefits include improved speech perception in noisy environments and improved sound localization. Recently, investigators have studied the long-term benefit, evaluation of neural integration, programming, vestibular effects, and complications of bilateral cochlear implantation. This article summarizes the current research endeavors to improve our understanding and utilization of bilateral cochlear implantation. RECENT FINDINGS: Numerous positive benefits of bilateral cochlear implantation have been confirmed. Patients receive significant head shadow benefit from bilateral implantation, and obtain nominal benefits from summation and squelch effects. Sound localization benefits have been confirmed. Speech perception in noise with bilateral implantation is significantly better than unilateral implantation and continues to improve 24 months after implantation. Areas for further improvement have also been identified. Despite technological improvements in speech processing strategies, measured intraaural time differences in bilateral cochlear implant recipients remain considerably greater than those with normal hearing. Programming challenges persist to optimize sound processing with bilateral implants. Vestibular effects of bilateral cochlear implantation appear safe but need further study. Important considerations including the duration of implant function, long-term complication rate, and improvements in implant technology will continue to strongly influence the role of bilateral cochlear implantation. SUMMARY: Bilateral cochlear implantation provides advantages over unilateral implantation including improved speech perception in noise and improved sound localization. Further research is needed to define the optimal indications and to maximize the benefit of bilateral implantation.

Eye-position effects in directional hearing.

The influence of gaze direction on azimuthal sound localization was investigated by presenting free-field acoustical stimuli in combination with a visual fixation task. In Experiment 1, a two-alternative forced-choice method was employed. While fixating visual targets, subjects judged whether noise bursts, presented from various directions, were perceived as being on the left or right of either a visual reference indicating straight ahead or the subjective straight-ahead direction. The psychometric functions measured with the first task shifted consistently opposite to the direction of eccentric gaze, i.e., the location of the auditory stimulus was perceived as shifted toward the direction of gaze. The mean magnitude of the shift was 4.7 degrees over a range of fixation angles up to 45 degrees on either side. Without an external reference indicating straight ahead, shifts of sound localization were inconsistent, either opposite or toward the direction of fixation in individual subjects. In Experiment 2, subjects orientated their head toward sound stimuli while fixating visual targets in various directions. As in Experiment 1, head position as a measure of sound localization shifted significantly toward the direction of eccentric gaze when a visual reference of the head median plane was present, and the results were inconsistent across subjects when it was absent. The results indicate a significant effect of gaze direction on the spatial agreement of auditory and visual perception which may be based on the superposition of distinct auditory and visual eye-position effects. The effect is in agreement with previous neurophysiological results that have suggested an incomplete neural transformation of auditory spatial coordinates from a craniocentric into an oculocentric frame of reference.
