The Reliability of Repeated Auditory Threshold Determination [PDF]

Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 1963
This paper considers the precision which may be expected in short-term serial measurements of audiometric thresholds. Twelve otologically normal young men were tested on four separate occasions at 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 0·5, and 1 kc/s. The tests were carried out in a mobile test room installed in a specially constructed vehicle chassis.

Pulsation threshold in the auditory nerve [PDF]

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1978
Response patterns of single auditory-nerve fibers are compared under two conditions. The first condition is similar to the stimulus condition customarily used to determine pulsation threshold psychophysically. A 100-ms duration signal at a fiber's characteristic frequency (CF) is presented at 10 dB above threshold at a rate of 5/s.

MLP: a MATLAB toolbox for rapid and reliable auditory threshold estimation [PDF]

Behavior Research Methods, 2009
In this paper, we present MLP, a MATLAB toolbox enabling auditory thresholds estimation via the adaptive Maximum Likelihood procedure proposed by David Green (1990, 1993).

Cochlear Neuropathy and the Coding of Supra-threshold Sound [PDF]

Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2014
Many listeners with hearing thresholds within the clinically normal range nonetheless complain of difficulty hearing in everyday settings and understanding speech in noise.

Auditory brainstem responses and auditory thresholds in woodpeckers [PDF]

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2013
Auditory sensitivity in three species of woodpeckers was estimated using the auditory brainstem response (ABR), a measure of the summed electrical activity of auditory neurons. For all species, the ABR waveform showed at least two, and sometimes three prominent peaks occurring within 10 ms of stimulus onset.

The acute effects of alcohol on auditory thresholds [PDF]

BMC Ear, Nose and Throat Disorders, 2007
There is very little knowledge about alcohol-induced hearing loss. Alcohol consumption and tolerance to loud noise is a well observed phenomenon as seen in the Western world where parties get noisier by the hour as the evening matures. This leads to increase in the referrals to the "hearing aid clinic" and the diagnosis of "cocktail party deafness ...

Stochastic undersampling steepens auditory threshold/duration functions: Implications for understanding auditory deafferentation and aging

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2015
It has long been known that some listeners experience hearing difficulties out of proportion with their audiometric losses. Notably, some older adults as well as auditory neuropathy patients have temporal-processing and speech-in-noise intelligibility ...

Auditory Threshold as a Function of Forced-Choice Technique, Feedback, and Motivation [PDF]

, 1962
Shifts in the threshold of hearing were determined as a function of prolonged testing (12 sessions) with four experimental groups: forced‐choice‐feedback, no‐forced‐choice‐feedback, forced‐choice‐no‐feedback, and no‐forced‐choice‐no‐feedback.

Prestimulus Network Integration of Auditory Cortex Predisposes Near-Threshold Perception Independently of Local Excitability [PDF]

Cerebral Cortex, 2015
An ever-increasing number of studies are pointing to the importance of network properties of the brain for understanding behavior such as conscious perception. However, with regards to the influence of prestimulus brain states on perception, this network

Effects of Contralateral Noise on the Measurement of Auditory Threshold

Tohoku journal of experimental medicine, 2003
It is well known that sound presented in the contralateral ear can elicit the activity of the olivocochlear (OC) efferent. In the present study, the effects of the addition of contralateral noise on the psychophysical measurements of auditory thresholds ...
