Objective Estimation of Frequency-Specific Pure-Tone Hearing Thresholds following Bone-Conduction Hearing Aid Stimulation
Patients suffering from conductive or mixed hearing loss may benefit from bone-conduction hearing systems (BAHS). The amount of amplification provided by the hearing system is selected based on the individual's sensorineural frequency-specific threshold. With patients who are not able to provide thresholds behaviorally, such as young children, objective methods are required to estimate the unai...
متن کاملInfant Auditory Sensitivity to Pure Tones and Frequency-Modulated Tones
It has been suggested that infants respond preferentially to infant-directed speech because their auditory sensitivity to sounds with extensive frequency modulation (FM) is better than their sensitivity to less modulated sounds. In this experiment, auditory thresholds for FM tones and for unmodulated, or pure, tones in a background of noise were measured for 4-month-old infants using a conditio...
متن کاملPure tone pitch perception and low-frequency hearing loss.
Pitch perception for pure tones was investigated in a group of listeners with low-frequency sensorineural hearing loss. Pitch judgments from each listener were compared with results from psycho-acoustic tasks which provide information on the "place" of cochlear response. The pitch measures employed were: (1) binaural pure-tone pitch matching in a listener with unilateral hearing loss, (2) octav...
متن کاملComparison of air-conduction and bone-conduction hearing thresholds for pure tones and octave-band filtered sound effects.
The purpose of this study was to measure air-conduction (AC) and bone-conduction (BC) hearing thresholds with pure-tone and filtered sound effect stimuli using standard audiometric equipment. A group of 20 young, normal-hearing listeners participated in the study. Pure-tone stimuli were 250, 500, 1000, 2000, and 4000 Hz. Sound effect stimuli were 12 natural sounds that were spectrally limited t...
متن کاملA study on the relationship between subjective unpleasantness and body surface vibrations induced by high-level low-frequency pure tones.
Human body surface vibrations induced by high-level low-frequency pure tones were measured at the chest and the abdomen. At the same time, the subject rated the unpleasantness that he had just perceived during the exposure to low-frequency noise stimulus. Examining the relationship between the measured vibration and the rating score of the unpleasantness revealed that the unpleasantness was in ...
