Publications
Speech perception without hearingL E Bernstein
Department of Communication Neuroscience, House Ear Institute, Los Angeles, California 90057, USA
Percept Psychophys 62:233-52. 2000..The results suggest that the necessity to perceive speech without hearing can be associated with enhanced visual phonetic perception in some individuals...
Enhanced speechreading in deaf adults: can short-term training/practice close the gap for hearing adults?L E Bernstein
Center for Auditory and Speech Sciences, Gallaudet University, Washington, DC, USA
J Speech Lang Hear Res 44:5-18. 2001....
Quantified acoustic-optical speech signal incongruity identifies cortical sites of audiovisual speech processingLynne E Bernstein
Communication Neuroscience Department, House Ear Institute, Los Angeles, CA 90057, USA
Brain Res 1242:172-84. 2008..The methods here show that quantitative manipulation of stimulus incongruity is a new and powerful tool for disclosing the system that processes audiovisual speech stimuli...
Spatiotemporal dynamics of audiovisual speech processingLynne E Bernstein
Communication Neuroscience Department, House Ear Institute, 2100 W Third St, Los Angeles, CA 90057, USA
Neuroimage 39:423-35. 2008..As discussed here, the relatively late activity of the SMG/AG solely under audiovisual conditions is a possible candidate audiovisual speech integration response...
Is subjective word familiarity a meter of ambient language? A natural experiment on effects of perceptual experienceE T Auer
Spoken Language Processes Laboratory, House Ear Institute, Los Angeles, CA 90057, USA
Mem Cognit 28:789-97. 2000..The results are discussed in relation to a simple sampling model of word experience and the language experience of the participant groups...
Temporal and spatio-temporal vibrotactile displays for voice fundamental frequency: an initial evaluation of a new vibrotactile speech perception aid with normal-hearing and hearing-impaired individualsE T Auer
Spoken Language Processes Laboratory, House Ear Institute, Los Angeles, California 90057, USA
J Acoust Soc Am 104:2477-89. 1998..Differences between subject groups were obtained for intonation identification, with more accurate VT performance by those with normal hearing. Possible effects of long-term hearing status are discussed...
Similarity structure in visual speech perception and optical phonetic signalsJintao Jiang
Department of Communication Neuroscience, House Ear Institute, Los Angeles, California 90057, USA
Percept Psychophys 69:1070-83. 2007....
Visual speech perception without primary auditory cortex activationLynne E Bernstein
Department of Communication Neuroscience, 2100 West Third Street, Los Angeles, CA 90057, USA
Neuroreport 13:311-5. 2002..These results suggest that visual speech perception is not critically dependent on the region of primary auditory cortex...
Stimulus-based lexical distinctiveness as a general word-recognition mechanismSven L Mattys
House Ear Institute, Los Angeles, California 90057, USA
Percept Psychophys 64:667-79. 2002..In particular, the results suggest that stimulus-based lexical distinctiveness is a valid construct to describe the underlying machinery of both visual and auditory spoken word recognition...
Comparison of landmark-based and automatic methods for cortical surface registrationDimitrios Pantazis
Signal and Image Processing Institute, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA 90089, USA
Neuroimage 49:2479-93. 2010..When automatic methods are used, the users should ensure that sulci in regions of interest in their studies are adequately aligned before proceeding with subsequent analysis...
Vibrotactile activation of the auditory cortices in deaf versus hearing adultsEdward T Auer
Department of Speech Language Hearing, University of Kansas, Dole Human Development Center, 10000 Sunnyside Ave, Room 3001, Lawrence, KS 66045 7555, USA
Neuroreport 18:645-8. 2007..Life-long somatosensory stimulation due to hearing aid use could explain the greater activity observed with deaf participants...
Improved speech perception in adult congenitally deafened cochlear implant recipientsStephanie Moody-Antonio
Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Eastern Virginia Medical School, Norfolk, Virginia 23507, USA
Otol Neurotol 26:649-54. 2005..This study shows that some congenitally deafened adults are able to integrate auditory information provided by the cochlear implant (despite the lack of auditory speech experience before implantation) with visual speech information...
Research Grants
- AUDIOVISUAL SPEECH PROCESSINGLYNNE BERNSTEIN; Fiscal Year: 2004..Accurate knowledge about the speech perceiving brain is needed for all clinical applications involving speech communication. ..
- Multidisciplinary Approaches to Patient-Oriented Studies of Auditory NeuropathyLYNNE BERNSTEIN; Fiscal Year: 2007..Important opportunities are lost when the clinical and research enterprises become too distinct from each other, and we will undertake to develop mechanisms that promote full partnership between the lab and the clinic. ..
- Visual Speech Perception and Neural ProcessingLYNNE BERNSTEIN; Fiscal Year: 2007..Knowledge about learning and plasticity in adults is important, as hearing loss is a frequent occurrence associated with aging. ..
- Visual Speech Perception and Neural ProcessingLYNNE BERNSTEIN; Fiscal Year: 2007..Our visual speech synthesizer will be useful for training deaf children in vocabulary development and lipreading. ..
