听配能(listening effort)调控研究与临床听觉康复

The Association between Listening Effort Research and Auditory Rehabilitation

听配能(listeningeffort)是认知听力学的重要概念,是认知心理学中配能(effort)这一概念的分支,它描述的是聆听者从自身有限的认知资源中分配给听觉任务的精力和能量。目前针对听配能调控理论基础和测量方法的研究正日趋完善,而听配能调控与听觉康复的关系尚未得到深入思考。听配能调控的基础研究对临床听觉康复具有重要的应用价值。本文通过讲述关于听配能研究的4个基本问题,梳理听配能研究的内容、方法及在听觉康复中的意义。

Listening effort is an important concept in cognitive hearing science.Listening effort is defined as any form of energy or resource(e.g.,cognitive,physical,emotional)or process that is intentionally allocated(or distributed)to listening for the purpose of speech comprehension and/or pleasure.Currently,development of the theoretical foundation and measurement approaches are the main focus of listening effort investigation.The clinical implications of listening effort research are rarely considered.Yet,listening effort regulation has significance for clinical auditory rehabilitation,including assessment,intervention and outcome evaluation.The purpose of this paper is to examine the purpose,methods and results of listening effort research and the association with auditory rehabilitation.
