Abstract
Deficits in temporal processing can affect the ability to understand speech, especially in noisy surroundings. This article, a follow-up to Part 1 in the May edition of HR, provides a review of the literature related to the potential effects of sensorineural hearing loss (referred to here as simply ‘hearing loss’) on temporal processing and a summary of how deficits in temporal processing may be related to speech recognition. Hearing care professionals need to consider these deficits during the provision of services to individuals with hearing loss.
