This paper discusses the results of a study to determine a relationship between the EEG pattern and autonomic conditioning.

Frequency responses of hearing aids and their effects on the speech perception of eight hard-of-hearing subjects

This dissertation examines the relationship between frequency response and word-discrimination performance of hearing-impaired persons. Three questions are addressed: does the restoration of the normal field-to-eardrum transfer function improve word discrimination; is the restoration of the normal shape of the audibility curve (uniform hearing level at all frequencies) beneficial to hearing-impaired listeners; and can speech discrimination be improved by an extension of the present narrow-band response in hearing aids.
