The paper shows that EEG spectral exponents reflect changes in E:I balance and selective attention, and track stimulus spectral exponents in sensory cortices, predicting behavioral performance.

The paper investigates neural attentional-filter mechanisms in middle-aged and older individuals using EEG and a dual-talker task, finding that neural speech tracking, but not alpha lateralization, correlates with listening success.

The paper shows that dynamic connectivity of intrinsic cortical oscillations supports adaptive listening in challenging conditions by modulating beta and alpha frequency networks.

This study shows that unilateral acoustic degradation delays neural attentional separation of competing speech, affecting speech processing in listeners with cochlear implants.

This study shows that lateralized alpha power reflects spatio-temporal attentional filtering, with stronger modulation following temporal cues.

The paper investigates how neural networks adapt to speech predictability and intelligibility, showing increased activation in semantic regions and changes in effective connectivity during challenging listening conditions.

This study shows that aging in the human auditory cortex leads to broader tuning to temporal modulation rates, particularly in primary auditory cortex and planum temporale.

This study shows that working memory vulnerability to distraction follows a rhythmic pattern, with 2.5-Hz cycles affecting both neural and behavioral measures of distraction.

The paper investigates how hallucination-prone individuals perceive speech-like acoustic features, finding they down-weight speech-typical low frequencies and prioritize high frequencies, with confidence influenced by hallucination proneness and schizotypy.

The paper shows that local cortical desynchronization and pupil-linked arousal differentially affect perceptual processing in humans during an auditory task.

This study shows that alpha oscillations in the human brain suppress distractors independently of target selection, using EEG data from an auditory attention task.

The paper shows that implicit temporal contingencies improve pitch discrimination and influence delta oscillation phases in auditory cortex, without rhythmic input.

The paper uses multivariate temporal response functions (mTRFs) to analyze continuous EEG responses in infants, showing robust individual and group-level neural tracking of auditory and visual stimuli.

This study shows that familiar distracting talkers impair working memory for spoken digits more than unfamiliar ones, but only in students, not in family members and friends.

This study investigates whether closing the eyes enhances auditory attention and perception, finding increased alpha-power modulation but no improvement in listening performance.

The paper shows that individual listening success in a dichotic task is best predicted by the combined effect of neural speech tracking and alpha power lateralization, not their individual contributions.

The paper shows that successful listeners exhibit stronger reconfiguration of brain networks during challenging listening tasks, with increased modularity predicting listening success.

The paper shows that lower prestimulus alpha power predicts higher confidence in auditory discrimination tasks, independent of stimulus evidence or task performance.

The paper shows that late cortical tracking of ignored speech enhances neural selectivity in noisy conditions by involving fronto-parietal regions.

The paper investigates how voice features like glottal-pulse rate and vocal-tract length contribute to the voice-continuity benefit in the cocktail party problem.

This study shows that alpha and gamma stimulation have opposite effects on spatial attention, with alpha reducing and gamma enhancing recall of attended speech.

The paper uses forward encoding models to track temporal hazard in EEG data during a pitch-discrimination task, showing that hazard function variations are reflected in neural signals, particularly in the supplementary motor area.

This study examines how alpha power lateralization relates to auditory attention in middle-aged and older adults, finding it is not age-dependent but linked to attentional capacity.

This study investigates how dopamine affects cortical dynamics during cognitive tasks, showing that it increases BOLD signal variability and alters functional connectivity, which correlates with individual differences in cognitive performance improvements.

This study shows that transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) applied in sync with speech envelopes improves speech comprehension in noise.

This study uses weighted permutation entropy to quantify neural irregularity in EEG data, showing it correlates with age-related changes and influences perceptual decisions.

This study shows that single-channel in-Ear-EEG can predict auditory attention focus in concurrent listening tasks.

The paper investigates how beta-band oscillation network dynamics influence perceptual decision speed in auditory tasks, finding that faster decisions correlate with higher segregation and lower integration of beta-band oscillations.
