Abstract
The technical committee on Psychological and Physiological acoustics (P&P) is concerned with a wide and multidisciplinary range of topics. P&P members address questions of how the auditory system transforms and processes incoming sound and how sound is used to facilitate behaviors like communication and navigation. Physiological acoustics concerns topics, such as the mechanical and acoustical mechanisms of the middle and inner ear and neurophysiology of peripheral and central auditory systems. Psychological acoustics concerns, for example, behavioral studies of auditory perception and cognition. Within these topics, research covers the basic science of normal function and hearing disorders, as well as clinical, translational, and applied questions related to hearing aids, cochlear implants, and audio technology. Membership and activities of P&P overlap heavily with several other technical committees in ASA, especially Architectural Acoustics, Animal Bioacoustics, Noise, and Speech Communication. This presentation will feature a brief overview and several examples of P&P research.
