“…For example, STMD paradigms have been used to explore perceptual learning mechanisms in the auditory system (Sabin et al, 2012). SMD/STMD tests have also used spectral/spectrotemporal resolution successfully as an outcome measure in different fields of audiological research: prediction of speech understanding in noise of hearing-aid users (Bernstein et al, 2016), assessment of cochlear implant candidacy, parameter fitting, and new sound processing strategies (Langner et al, 2017;Choi et al, 2016;Croghan and Smith, 2018;Zheng et al, 2017), evaluation of bimodal hearing benefit (Zhang et al, 2013), and music perception (Choi et al, 2018).…”
