The psychophysics of absolute threshold and signal duration: A probabilistic approach [PDF]
The absolute threshold for a tone depends on its duration; longer tones have lower thresholds. This effect has traditionally been explained in terms of ?temporal integration? involving the summation of energy or perceptual information over time.

Assessment of effects of hearing aid fitting on the perceptual characteristics of tinnitus
Background Evidence of systematic relationships between the perceptual characteristics of tinnitus, like its pitch or loudness, and those of the absolute hearing threshold curves, like the presence and degree of hearing loss at certain frequencies, would

Brainstem auditory evoked responses: Objective hearing threshold assessment in Holstein cows
Background: Animal audiology utilizes brainstem auditory evoked responses (BAER) as a non-invasive tool to assess hearing in animals, including Holstein dairy cows. Understanding cows’ auditory capabilities is critical for their welfare, especially given

Treatment of sudden sensorineural hearing loss with hyperbaric oxygenation - our experience [PDF]
Background/Aim. Sudden sensorineural hearing loss is manifested by the loss of hearing for more than 30 dB at three consecutive frequencies in the timeframe of 72 h.

Magnitude of the contralateral efferent olivocochlear effect as a function of the frequency
Background: The activation of the medial olivocochlear reflex reduces the cochlear gain, which is manifested perceptually as decreased auditory sensitivity.

Does Herpes Virus Reactivation Affect Prognosis in Idiopathic Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss? [PDF]
Objectives Several etiologies have been proposed to underlie idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSNHL), including viral infection, vascular disturbance, and immune-mediated mechanisms. However, none of these mechanisms are conclusive.

Expert validation of prediction models for a clinical decision-support system in audiology
For supporting clinical decision-making in audiology, Common Audiological Functional Parameters (CAFPAs) were suggested as an interpretable intermediate representation of audiological information taken from various diagnostic sources within a clinical ...
