dcterms.abstractDans le cas de perte auditive, la localisation spatiale est amoindrie et vient entraver la compréhension de la parole et ce, malgré le port de prothèses auditives. La présente étude modifie la forme de l’oreille externe d’individus à l’aide de silicone afin d’induire des changements aux indices spectraux (HRTFs), similaires à ceux causés par des prothèses auditives, et d’explorer les mécanismes perceptifs (visuel, spectral, ou tactile) permettant d’alterner d’un nouvel ensemble à l’ensemble originel de HRTFs une fois les prothèses enlevées. Les résultats démontrent que les participants s’adaptent aux nouveaux HRTFs à l’intérieur de quatre séances d’entraînement. Dès le retrait des prothèses, les participants reviennent à leur performance originale. Il n’est pas possible de conclure avec les données présentes si le changement d’un ensemble de HRTFs à un autre est influencé par un des mécanismes de rétroaction perceptuelle étudié. L’adaptation aux prothèses perdure jusqu’à quatre semaines après leur retrait.fr
dcterms.abstractSpatial hearing contributes greatly to speech understanding in noisy environments. Hearing aids disturb all of the acoustic cues necessary for accurate sound localization and thus negate some of their benefits. This study addressed behavioral adaptation to changes in auditory spatial cues caused by changes similar to those induced by hearing aids. Spectral cues (HRTFs) were distorted by changing the shape of the outer ear with silicon molds. The present experiment was aimed at determining the perceptual modalities (visual, spectral or tactile) that might enable the switch from the modified to the original HRTFs once the molds were removed. Results indicate that participants were able to adapt within four training sessions. Participants immediately showed accurate sound localization when ear molds were removed. It was not possible to conclude whether the perceptual feedbacks had a major impact on the choice of the correct set of HRTFs to use. Adaptation to the modified HRTFs lasted weeks after their removal.fr
