The central auditory system
... Auditory nerve fibers (these are in the auditory periphery, not the CNS) show very little specialization; i.e., they’re nearly interchangeable with one another, with one exception: Some have low thresholds (and high spontaneous rates), some have high thresholds (and low spontaneous rates). That’s ab ...

Some sounds become loud, intrusive and unpleasant because of their meaning or association. This is almost universally true for the sound created by scratching chalk on ...

Auditory system
The auditory system is the sensory system for the sense of hearing. It includes both the sensory organs (the ears) and the auditory parts of the sensory system.
