Outline of Final Research Achievements

For exacerbation of the hearing of the words in the deaf person, frequency selectivity and temporal resolution are involved. We made measuring equipment of the frequency selectivity in previous study, and in this time we developed the instrument which measured temporal resolution. Actually, it was confirmed in a deaf person that the instrument which we developed was effective. We developed sound emphasis treatment with the temporal resolution enhancing treatment, but we still have a barrier for the hearing aid implementation by the real time.
