The ability of listeners to attend to multiple dimensions either in audition or simultaneously in audition and in vision; increment detection and amplitude modulation; informational masking and the difficulty that hearing-impaired people have in real-world listening situations that involve multiple sound sources; cognitive topics such as dichotic listening, divided auditory attention, and short-term memory; the impact of hearing loss and aging on attention and memory for the location, pitch and intensity of target sounds in the presence of interfering sounds.
