Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Millions of Americans experience some degree of hearing loss. The Social Security Administration (SSA) operates programs that provide cash disability benefits to people with permanent impairments like hearing loss, if they can show that their impairments meet stringent SSA criteria and their earnings are below an SSA threshold. The National Research Council convened an expert committee at the request of the SSA to study the issues related to disability determination for people with hearing loss. This volume is the product of that study. Hearing Loss: Determining Eligibility for Social Security Benefits reviews current knowledge about hearing loss and its measurement and treatment, and provides an evaluation of the strengths and weaknesses of the current processes and criteria. It recommends changes to strengthen the disability determination process and ensure its reliability and fairness. The book addresses criteria for selection of pure tone and speech tests, guidelines for test administration, testing of hearing in noise, special issues related to testing children, and the difficulty of predicting work capacity from clinical hearing test results. It should be useful to audiologists, otolaryngologists, disability advocates, and others who are concerned with people who have hearing loss.

Download or read book Psychoacoustics written by Jennifer J. Lentz and published by Plural Publishing. This book was released on 2023-11-27 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psychoacoustics: Auditory Perception of Listeners with Normal Hearing and Hearing Loss, Second Edition provides an overview of the field of psychoacoustics, with a primary focus on auditory perception. The book retains its focus on applications of psychoacoustics to clinical audiology, and its modular organization, with each chapter including relevant information around a specific topic. Within each chapter, acoustics, physiology, and perception by adult listeners with normal hearing and those with hearing loss, as they relate to that topic, are presented. The influence of hearing loss on these general auditory abilities is discussed in every chapter. Components of the book also include the role of psychoacoustics in audiological assessment and treatment. The text is ideal for audiology students who intend on having a clinical career and need an understanding of both normal and impaired auditory perception. It is intended to give students sufficient information to understand how the ear achieves auditory perception, what the capabilities of the ear are, and how hearing loss influences that perception. It also provides students with a foundation for further study in the area and to apply psychoacoustic principles to diagnostic audiology and audiological rehabilitation. New to the Second Edition: * 70 new figures to clarify some points and facilitate students’ understanding of the material * New chapter that focuses exclusively on the perception by individuals wearing hearing aids and cochlear implants * New section on the perceptual consequences of sensorineural hearing loss on everyday listening added to each chapter * Revamped chapter on Psychoacoustics and Advanced Clinical Auditory Assessment now solely addresses elements within diagnostic audiology that are based on psychoacoustics, with added content on tinnitus assessment, automated (Békésy) audiometry, retrocochlear and pseudohypacusis evaluation, and the identification of dead regions * Enhanced focus on inclusivity, such as alternative versions of some demonstrations designed to be more accessible to individuals with hearing loss, and a new section on the contributions of women and BIPOC scientists to the field of psychoacoustics Key Features: * Learning objectives and summaries begin and end each chapter to convey the goals of the text and review student comprehension * Each chapter contains exercises designed to develop critical thinking about psychoacoustics * Chapters include the following: introduction, relevant acoustics, important physiological studies, perception by normal-hearing listeners, and perception by listeners who have sensorineural hearing loss * Emphasis on applied learning for more effective and efficient learning of the material Disclaimer: Please note that ancillary content such as lab exercises are not included as published in the original print version of this book.

Download or read book Towards a Deeper Understanding of Consciousness written by Max Velmans and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-10-14 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the World Library of Psychologists series, international experts themselves present career-long collections of what they judge to be their finest pieces - extracts from books, key articles, salient research findings, and their major practical theoretical contributions. In this volume Max Velmans reflects on his long-spanning and varied career, considers the highs and lows in a brand new introduction and offers reactions to those who have responded to his published work over the years. This book offers a unique and compelling collection of the best publications in consciousness studies from one of the few psychologists to treat the topic systematically and seriously. Velmans’ approach is multi-faceted and represents a convergence of numerous fields of study – culminating in fascinating insights that are of interest to philosopher, psychologist and neuroscientist alike. With continuing contemporary relevance, and significant historical impact, this collection of works is an essential resource for all those engaged or interested in the field of consciousness studies and the philosophy of the mind.
