Diagnosis and management of auditory neuropathy/dys-sychrony

This paper discusses auditory neuropathy (AN) and auditory dys-sychrony (AD), and means of testing and diagnosis.

Role of synuclein proteins in auditory function

The recent discovery of synuclein proteins in peripheral auditory tissues has prompted a closer examination of the role of these proteins in hearing. In the present study, auditory brainstem response thresholds of synuclein knockout mice are compared to wild type mice.

Reading instruction for hearing-impaired students in an auditory-oral setting

This paper discusses the instruction of reading for hearing impaired children.

Average annual reading growth rate progress of children who are deaf, use a cochlear implant and attend an auditory-oral school

Reading growth rate averages were established for children who are deaf, have a unilateral cochlear implant and attend an auditory-oral school.

Habituation of the immobility response of guinea pigs to auditory stimuli

This paper discusses the development of a method to measure the habituation of the immobility response of guinea pigs.

Relationship among otoacoustic emission suppression and auditory processing measures in adults

The purpose of this Capstone Project is to help determine whether performing otoacoustic emissions with contralateral noise may be used in the diagnosis of Auditory Processing Disorder.

Auditory and audio-visual reception of words in noise by observers with normal and impaired hearing

This dissertation examines auditory perception and audio-visual reception in noise for both hearing-impaired and normal hearing persons, with a goal of determining some of the noise conditions under which amplified acoustic cues for speech can be beneficial to hearing-impaired persons.

The discrimination of auditory and visual number

This study compares the discrimination of successive visual number and successive auditory number using the same stimulus durations and presentation rates for both stimuli. The accuracy of the discrimination of successive number decreased as the presentation rate increased and the number in a series increased.

Relation of audiometric patterns to the etiology of auditory disorders in children

This paper reviews a study to investigate the relationship between audiogram patterns and auditory disorder etiology of children at CID.

Auditory brainstem response with alternative transducers: implications for newborn hearing screening

This paper studies the efficacy of a bone-conducted transducer compared to a traditional air conduction transducer for auditory brainstem response screening of newborns.

The effects of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) on auditory brainstem responses (ABR) in neonates

This paper presents a study of the effects of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) on the auditory brainstem response (ABR) of twenty-three neonates, and whether there was asymmetric ABRs in the neonates who had ECMO.

Cross-modality temporal resolution for auditory, vibrotactile, and visual stimuli

This paper reviews a study of cross-modalities and within-modalities and their effects on speech perception.

The slow cortical evoked potential: cross modality interaction of auditory, vibro-tactile and shock stimuli

This paper discusses a study that collected cortical evoked responses when stimuli of different modalities were presented.

Auditory difference limen for duration in deaf and hearing listeners

This paper reviews a study to determine if deaf children can discriminate fine durational changes in acoustic signals or whether the impairment of the peripheral auditory system interferes with the temporal precision necessary for such tasks.

Most comfortable listening levels of hearing impaired people: effects of everyday auditory and visual environments

This paper discusses a study to evaluate the changes that may occur in most comfortable listening levels when hearing aid users encounter a realistic auditory and visual environment.
