The phase relations of normal ears compared with the phase relations of otosclerotic ears before and after the fenestration operation

This paper discusses the fenestration operation and its effect on hearing.

Acoustical barriers to communication and hearing

This study examined the acoustical conditions, including the surface-dimension measurements, background noise levels, and reverberation times in classrooms in a metropolitan area. The data collected in this study will help school administrators realize that appropriate classroom acoustics are necessary for both hearing impaired and normal hearing students.

Newborn hearing screening: A retrospective analysis of hit and false positive rates in the NICU and how they are influenced by risk factors for hearing loss in a suburban birthing hospital

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a hearing screening program, particularly focusing on hit and false positive rates in the NICU and WBN at a top-rated birthing hospital in Saint Louis, MO. Additionally, the study examined how these rates may be influenced by risk factors for hearing loss.

Comparison of methods for enhancement of regeneration of the VII th nerve

This paper discusses a study to investigate the effectiveness of collagen splints for the enhancement of regeneration of the peripheral portion of the eighth nerve.

Parents as advocates for their hearing impaired children transitioning from a private setting to a mainstream setting

This project studied the experiences of parents whose hearing impaired children moved from private education settings into mainstream education.

Dimensions of the acoustic reflex as measured in a background of noise

This study examines whether background noise, presented at 10 dB below its reflex threshold, affects the acoustic reflex (AR) response for pure tones presented subsequent to the onset of the noise.

Who am I?

This paper examines the self-image and satisfaction of cochlear implant users.

A longitudinal demographic study of a parent-infant program for hearing-impaired children

This paper is a longitudinal study of the CID Parent-Infant Program, 1966-1976.

The structural component of linguistic meaning and the reading of normally hearing and deaf children

This paper discusses an experiment in psycholinguistic method and its application to the field of education.

The calibration and use of probe-test microphones

This paper examines the characteristics of the probe-tube microphone and its use in measuring sound pressure in the ear canal. Specifically the paper studies the free field and the coupler calibrations of several probe-tube microphones with tubes of different sizes and determines which characteristics of a probe tube are necessary for accurate measurements in both a free field and in a closed coupler.

Parental observations of children's responses to three sensory aids: cochlear implant, tactile aid, hearing aid

This study discusses a project undertaken to determine the benefits of sensory aids for hearing impaired children based on parental observations over a twelve month period.

The effect of pre-implant puretone thresholds on post-implant speech perception ability in children

This paper studies the effect of residual hearing on post-implant speech perception in children with cochlear implants. The effect of pre-implant auditory experience and the effect of neuronal survival in the implanted ear were investigated.

An educational curriculum outline for teaching sound and hearing in elementary schools

This paper provides curriculum on noise, ears, hearing and deafness for elementary school children.

Teaching language (at the primary level) through theme-base units

This paper is a collection of four theme-based units to be used to teach beginning science and social studies concepts.

Central Institute for the Deaf's Word of Mouth class: developing its future

This paper reviews the Word of Mouth program at CID.
