This study examines if plosive consonants are perceived as louder than non-plosive consonants by hearing-impaired listeners, finding no overall difference but some individual consonant effects.

This study shows that autonomic responses during listening effort are decoupled, challenging the idea of a unified sympathetic response and highlighting the limitations of single-channel biomarkers.

The paper shows how a multi-timescale sensory model with fractional adaptation tracks natural environmental fluctuations to maintain stable encoding and maximize coding efficiency.
