Book Multiple Tone Pair Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emissions

Download or read book Multiple Tone Pair Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emissions written by Peter Evan Picton and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The multiple tone pair method for the elicitation of distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) represents a significant improvement over the standard single tone pair method in terms of test speed. This work was aimed at determining the limitations and further utility of this method which was first introduced by Dr. D. O. Kim in 1997. Experimentation into stimulus selection demonstrated how interference caused by equipment induced distortions could be avoided by adjusting the arrangement of the stimulus tones. Also, the effect of stimulus level was observed to have negligible effect on the multiple tone pair method. Further investigation into tone pair proximity led to the conclusion that tone pairs could be placed at 4/5 of an octave separation without significant reduction of the DPOAE levels due to suppression. Finally, the four tone pair stimulus was shown to produce considerable complications due to distortion, making it infeasible for use with current instrumentation.

Book Hearing Loss

    Book Details:
  • Author : National Research Council
  • Publisher : National Academies Press
  • Release : 2004-12-17
  • ISBN : 0309092965
  • Pages : 321 pages

Download or read book Hearing Loss written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-12-17 with total page 321 pages. 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.

Book The Hearing Sciences  Third Edition

Download or read book The Hearing Sciences Third Edition written by Teri A. Hamill and published by Plural Publishing. This book was released on 2017-12-30 with total page 669 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Hearing Sciences, Third Edition addresses all topics critical to understanding the hearing sciences: acoustics, basic instrumentation, anatomy and physiology of the auditory and vestibular systems, and psychoacoustics. The text is intended for undergraduate courses in hearing science and to augment the graduate AuD curriculum. Basic and intermediate chapters are targeted to undergraduate students. Intermediate and advanced chapters are appropriate for AuD instruction. Advanced chapters summarize key points from introductory chapters, so assignment of those earlier chapters is not required if the student has previously had a survey course in hearing science. Direct relevance to clinical audiology is featured. For example, the text contains comprehensive explanation of the active mechanisms of the cochlea and relates this to otoacoustic emissions and hearing loss. The writing is straightforward and clear. Each chapter includes an introduction, summary, and review questions. "Clinical Correlate" boxes engage the student by demonstrating the relationships between the hearing sciences and clinical audiology. New to the Third Edition: An updated art program with more illustrations and imagesA new chapter on advanced vestibular anatomy and physiology, and thorough updates to the prior vestibular contentContinued attention to conveying information in a straightforward manner while reflecting the current state of researchKey concepts bolded throughout for greater comprehension and accessibilityReview questions added to each chapter to ensure students grasp and retain the information

Book Active Processes and Otoacoustic Emissions in Hearing

Download or read book Active Processes and Otoacoustic Emissions in Hearing written by Geoffrey A. Manley and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-12-20 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cochlea does not just pick up sound, it also produces sounds of low intensity called Otoacoustic Emissions (OAEs). Sounds produced by healthy ears – either spontaneously or in response to stimuli - allow researchers and clinicians to study hearing and cochlear function noninvasively in both animals and humans. This book presents the first serious review of the biological basis of these otoacoustic emissions.
