Three different central auditory skills were compared and evaluated in 56 blind and 40 sighted subjects. The study consisted of three experiments conducted in three subgroups. Experiment A was performed in order to evaluate the localization function; experiment B for the temporal auditory resolution ability of the blind adult, and experiment C to test the ability of the blind person to discriminate speech material in noise. In all three experiments the blind subjects obtained significantly better results than the sighted subjects. From these results it was concluded that there is supporting evidence of a certain superiority of the blind individual with regard to central auditory function.
对56名盲人和40名视力正常的受试者的三种不同的中枢听觉技能进行了比较和评估。该研究由在三个亚组中进行的三个实验组成。进行实验A是为了评估定位功能;实验B是针对成年盲人的颞听觉分辨能力,实验C是测试盲人在噪声中辨别语音材料的能力。在所有这三个实验中,盲人受试者获得的结果明显优于视力正常的受试者。从这些结果得出的结论是,有支持性证据表明盲人个体在中枢听觉功能方面具有一定优势。
