Abstract

Introduction: This study investigated the effect of different auditory stimuli and cognitive tasks on balance in healthy young adults.

Methods: Thirty-three participants, aged 23.33 ± 2.43 years, were included in the study. The hearing levels of the participants were determined. Static and dynamic postural stability and limits of stability (LOS) tests were performed in the absence of auditory stimuli, in the presence of spondee word lists at 70 dB(A) and in the presence of spondee+white noise (-6 dB signal-to-noise ratio [SNR]), while auditory stimuli were presented bilaterally with supra-aural headphones. Participants were asked to repeat the words they listened to while performing balance-related tasks.

Results: No significant differences between the three conditions were observed in the postural stability and LOS results. Increase in total repetition error was observed as the listening task became more difficult.

Conclusion: The presence of auditory stimuli and the cognitive tasks did not cause any changes in the participants' balance.

不同听觉刺激和认知任务对健康年轻人平衡能力的影响

内容简介本研究调查了不同听觉刺激和认知任务对健康年轻人平衡能力的影响：研究对象为 33 名参与者，年龄为 23.33 ± 2.43 岁。测定了参与者的听力水平。在没有听觉刺激、有 70 dB(A)的 spondee 单词表和有 spondee+ 白噪声（-6 dB 信噪比 [SNR]）的情况下，进行静态和动态姿势稳定性和稳定性极限（LOS）测试，同时用耳上耳机向双侧提供听觉刺激。要求受试者在执行平衡相关任务时重复所听的单词：在姿势稳定性和 LOS 结果方面，三种条件之间没有发现明显差异。随着听力任务难度的增加，总重复错误率也在增加：结论：听觉刺激和认知任务的存在并未导致参与者的平衡能力发生任何变化。

期刊介绍： ''Audiology and Neurotology'' provides a forum for the publication of the most-advanced and rigorous scientific research related to the basic science and clinical aspects of the auditory and vestibular system and diseases of the ear. This journal seeks submission of cutting edge research opening up new and innovative fields of study that may improve our understanding and treatment of patients with disorders of the auditory and vestibular systems, their central connections and their perception in the central nervous system. In addition to original papers the journal also offers invited review articles on current topics written by leading experts in the field. The journal is of primary importance for all scientists and practitioners interested in audiology, otology and neurotology, auditory neurosciences and related disciplines.
