Memory for articulated sequences and lipreading performance of deaf observers

This paper is a review of a study to determine the relation between lipreading performance and memory for sequences of spoken syllables.

A comparison of physical measurements of pure-tones, third-octave bands of noise and third-octave bands of speech to subjective judgments of audibility threshold, MCL and UCL for three normally hearing listeners

This study investigates the relation between physical measurements of pure-tones, third-octave bands of noise and third-octave bands of speech and subjective judgments of auditory threshold, most-comfortable listening level (MCL) and uncomfortable-listening level (UCL) for three normally hearing listeners.

Evaluaton of a genetic marker within the organ of Corti of transgenic mice

This paper reviews a study to evaluate a genetic marker within the organ of Corti in transgenic mice for potential use in cell lineage studies.

Structural analysis of narratives produced by normal-hearing and deaf children

This dissertation presents two experiments investigating the structural analysis of narratives produced by normal-hearing and hearing-impaired children. The results suggest that the evaluation of deaf children’s language at a discourse level is both possible and more relevant to academic achievement than traditional assessment procedures that focus on assessing language at a word, phrase or sentence level.
