The phrase "auditory predictors" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to sound, hearing, or auditory processing, particularly in fields like psychology, linguistics, or neuroscience.
Example: "Researchers are studying auditory predictors to understand how individuals anticipate sounds in their environment."
Alternatives: "sound cues" or "auditory cues".
GLM was performed using separate auditory predictors for the conditions joint action condition to capture brain activity caused by hearing the words "angle" or "straight" and separate action predictor for the joint action, observation and execution conditions to capture brain activity triggered by executing and/or observing the finger movements.
Beta values estimated for the visual and auditory predictors in the GLM of the passive pre post sessions were analyzed using two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) (Modality [Auditory, Visual] × Learning [Pre, Post]).
In this case, the auditory predictor is assigned a negative response, as it attenuates the activation in the voxel, without the BOLD signal dropping below the average response.
Auditory and visual predictors for each experimental condition were created in this manner (e.g., "Auditory-Pre," "Auditory-Post," and "Auditory-Plus," in the auditory case).
It should be noted that negative beta values do not necessarily mean negative BOLD signal because auditory and visual predictors were semioverlapped.
Our semioverlapped design means that auditory and visual predictors overlapped in some intervals, but remained orthogonal because the auditory and visual stimulus presentation rates were different (in the passive experiments 14 repetitions and 21 repetitions, respectively), and thus did not violate the nonsingularity of the design matrix (Friston, Holmes, et al. 1994).
Instead of analyzing the parameter estimates separately for the auditory and action predictor, we combined them by summing the surface under the fitted auditory and action predictors.
Results also demonstrate that measures obtained from the auditory spectrum were better predictors of perceptual ratings of breathiness than were commonly used acoustic spectral measures.
This, however, yielded no new significant predictors of auditory hallucination proneness (all interaction effects p > .70, β < .01).01
A regression analysis was performed, using LTO and lesion size as predictors for auditory sentence comprehension, word repetition, object naming, rhyme and homophone judgement.
Both LTO (p < 0.001, R = 0.599) and lesion size (p < 0.001, R = 0.625) were found to be good predictors of auditory sentence comprehension.
