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.

Loudness judgments in normal and hearing impaired listeners

This paper studies the use of a rank order scale to achieve a goal of normal loudness perception for a hearing-impaired person. The study compares loudness judgments in normal and hearing-impaired listeners.

Variability in distortion product otoacoustic emissions among normal ears

This paper studies the relationship between hearing sensitivity and the presence of otoacoustic emissions by examining the variability of same ear emissions in a group of normal-hearing subjects.

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.

A study of threshold and loudness summation in normal-hearing listeners

This paper presents some normative data on the relation between the perceived loudness of third-octave bands of noise and that of broad-band noise. The study used normally-hearing listeners and was used as a control study for a parallel study done with hearing impaired listeners.

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

This paper compares the auditory steady state response (ASSR) thresholds with the click-evoked and tone burst auditory brainstem response (ABR) thresholds in their ability to predict known behavioral thresholds in normal-hearing adults.

Velocity discrimination of angular motion at different frequencies in individuals with normal vestibular function

The purpose of this study was to evaluate discrimination of angular velocity in individuals with normal vestibular function using a newly developed adaptive psychophysical measure. Vestibular psychophysical testing may complement existing clinical measures in diagnosing and treating patients with imbalance.
