These findings contribute to a better understanding of basic sensory processing differences, which may be critical for understanding more complex social and cognitive deficits in ASD, and ultimately may contribute to more effective diagnostic and interventional strategies. (frontiersin.org)
Reports of abnormal sensory function that span the visual, auditory, gustatory, and tactile domains reinforce the "multisensory" nature of sensory processing alterations in ASD (for review, see Rogers and Ozonoff, 2005 ), and emerging evidence suggests that abnormalities also extend to the selective integration of information across the different sensory modalities (i.e., multisensory integration - see Iarocci and McDonald, 2006 ). (frontiersin.org)

However, experimental evidence, especially from behaving animals, that could help explain what information the auditory midbrain and other subcortical sensory structures rely on their cortical input for is still very limited. (elifesciences.org)

The hearing deficits are the perceptual consequences of different impairments in the auditory system. (computationalaudiology.com)
The sensorineural hearing loss is complex, and it is difficult to connect the perceptual deficits with specific impairments such as cochlear amplifier dysfunction or disruptions in the neural encoding of the incoming acoustic signals. (computationalaudiology.com)
Moreover, a detailed characterization of the auditory perceptual deficits might be more valuable than a detailed characterization of the impaired mechanisms, at least, for personalized audiology. (computationalaudiology.com)

(uncg.edu)

Finally, the auditory information received by the ear is sent to the auditory cortex in the temporal lobes. (cognifit.com)
The auditory cortex is considered crucial for the integration of acoustic and contextual information and is thought to share the resulting representations with subcortical auditory structures via its vast descending projections. (elifesciences.org)
This illustrates that subcortical auditory structures have access to a wealth of non-acoustic information and can, independently of the auditory cortex, carry much richer neural representations than previously thought. (elifesciences.org)
This work suggests that behavior outcome information in the inferior colliculus persists in absence of top-down feedback from the auditory cortex. (elifesciences.org)
