Autistic adults display different verbal behavior only in mixed-neurotype interactions: Evidence from a referential communication task.
Autism

ACTE, LaDisco and ULB Neuroscience Institute, Université libre de Bruxelles, Belgium.
Article Synopsis
- Recent research indicates that conversations between autistic and non-autistic individuals are less fluid than those among peers sharing the same neurotype, raising questions about the reasons behind this difference.
- A study with 134 adults showed that pairs with mixed neurotypes were slower in completing tasks compared to pairs of the same neurotype, highlighting a potential communication gap.
- Interestingly, when mixed pairs interacted, only autistic participants tended to use more words than their non-autistic counterparts, suggesting that autistic individuals may have a distinctive communication style that is evident even when neurotype is not disclosed.
Acoustic- Versus Intelligibility-Based Assessment of Subjective Listening Difficulty Measured With the Repeat-Recall Test.
Ear Hear
October 2024
Office of Research in Clinical Amplification, WS Audiology, Lisle, Illinois, USA.
Objectives: To contrast interpretations of listening effort ratings when judged against acoustic- versus intelligibility-based normative references.
Design: Existing data collected from 66 normal-hearing adult listeners, comprising 2730 trials of the Repeat-Recall Test, were used to establish norms of subjective listening effort ratings for six ranges of intelligibility. Data from 21 aided hearing-impaired listeners were then used to contrast intelligibility-based norms against acoustic-based norms when interpreting listening effort ratings measured in omnidirectional and directional microphone conditions.
Ground-truth validation of the "earbuds method" for measuring acoustic nasalance.

Among the variety of methodological tools available for quantifying the degree of nasalization, nasometry has remained a popular choice for both academic and clinical research on speech due to its relatively low cost, portability, ease of use, and interpretability. In its simplest form, nasometry involves two microphones that independently capture the acoustic radiation from the mouth and nose. Recently, a method was proposed by Stewart and Kohlberger [(2017).

The auditory Stroop is a modification of the classic Stroop paradigm commonly used in dual-task research when the motor task requires the visual system. Despite its use, there are gaps in our understanding of this tool. For example, in visual/auditory Stroop paradigms, neutral cues irrelevant to the required response, which theoretically cause less interference/facilitation, are used to elucidate effects of visual/auditory demands on neural processes.

Article Synopsis
- Auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD) is a type of sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) characterized by specific auditory responses; cochlear implants, once deemed unsuitable for ANSD, are now increasingly considered effective for children not benefiting from traditional hearing aids.
- The study focuses on the preoperative and postoperative experiences of a child with ANSD who received a cochlear implant, highlighting significant improvements in hearing and communication skills through auditory verbal therapy and ongoing follow-ups.
- A comprehensive evaluation process involving multiple medical specialties was conducted for a 3-year-old girl diagnosed with ANSD, resulting in successful cochlear implantation and positive outcomes in her auditory function.
