An analysis of the relationship between immittance results and AC/BC

This paper analyzes subjects with air bone (A/B) gaps (a comparison of air-conducted thresholds and bone-conducted thresholds) and whether tympanometry (the type of tympanogram, static admittance, or peak pressure) can predict the size of the A/B gap.

Recognizing emotion in illustrations and photographs: Comparing responses of children who are deaf or hard of hearing with those of children with normal hearing

Recognizing emotions are something children do everyday, whether it is identifying that mom is sad because she lost her job or that a character in a story is mad because no one will listen to him. The purpose of this study is to find out if recognizing emotions is easier to do with realistic photographs or illustrations.

The development of language and communicative behaviors in deaf/hearing twins

This paper examines language development in twins--one that is hearing and the other that is hearing impaired.

The relationship among perceived hearing handicap, pure-tone average, and articulation index for an elderly population

This paper reviews a study to determine the relationship between a self-perceived hearing handicap index, pure-tone average and Articulation Index scores in an elderly population.

Central Institute for the Deaf's assistive listening device catalogue: includes descriptions, photographs and prices

This paper presents a catalogue of assistive listening devices (including descriptions, photographs and descriptions) available at the assistive listening device center at Central Institute for the Deaf.

Learning disabled and hearing-impaired

This paper discusses learning disabilities in children who are hearing impaired.

Investigation and literature review of unilateral hearing loss

Literature and research were gathered and analyzed to determine the impact UHL has on a child’s education, speech and language development. The effects of early intervention and amplification were also analyzed.

An analysis of the Woodcock Reading Mastery Tests and the Diagnostic Reading Scales for use with hearing-impaired children

This paper examines two individually administered diagnostic reading tests, the Woodcock Reading Mastery Tests and the Diagnostic Reading Scales, to determine their value for use with hearing-impaired children.

Comparing auditory steady state response and auditory brainstem response in normal hearing adults

This paper presents a study examining auditory steady state response (ASSR) assessments compared to auditory brainstem response (ABR) assessments. The study examines the relationship between behavioral thresholds, click- and toneburst-ABR thresholds, and ASSR thresholds for normal hearing subjects using the commercially available GSI Audera instrument.

Tactile perception of rhythmic patterns in normal, blind, deaf and aphasic children

This paper is a review of a study to determine if perception through rhythm is contingent upon auditory experience.

The effects of hearing aid gain on speech perception and the articulation index

This paper discusses a study to determine if changes in aided articulation indices predict changes in aided speech perception ability.

Immediate recall by aphasic, deaf and normally hearing children for visual forms presented simultaneously or sequentially in tim

This paper discusses a study to investigate immediate recall of visual stimuli presented simultaneously or sequentially in time.

The intelligibility of cleft palate speech with and without dental prosthesis

This paper discusses a study to investigate the possibility of quantifying and analyzing the speech of cleft palate subjects.

Sensitivity and specificity of tympanometric gradient and middle ear resonance in young children and infants

This paper discusses the use of tympanometric gradient, middle ear resonance and static admittance as diagnostic tools for testing the hearing of children and infants.

A comparison of communication breakdowns and repair strategies used by cochlear implant children from two differenct methodologies

This study investigates how children with cochlear implants from simultaneous communications backgrounds and from oral education backgrounds experience communication breakdowns. The study examines each group's response to communication breakdowns and the repair strategies of each group.
