Auditory perception is our main gateway to communication with others via speech and
music, and it also plays an important role in alerting and orienting us to new events. This …

Cochlear function changes throughout the human lifespan. Distortion product otoacoustic
emissions (DPOAEs) were recorded in 156 ears to examine these changes and speculate …

Although stimulus-frequency otoacoustic emissions (SFOAEs) offer compelling advantages
as noninvasive probes of cochlear function, they remain underutilized compared to other …

Reflection-source otoacoustic emission phase-gradient delays are widely used to obtain
noninvasive estimates of cochlear function and properties, such as the sharpness of …

Several types of otoacoustic emissions have been characterized in newborns to study the
maturational status of the cochlea at birth and to develop effective tests of hearing. The …

A quantitative model is presented that describes the formation of auditory brainstem
responses (ABRs) to tone pulses, clicks, and rising chirps as a function of stimulation level …

As shown by the work of Kemp and Chum in 1980, stimulus-frequency otoacoustic emission
suppression tuning curves (SFOAE STCs) have potential to objectively estimate behaviorally …

The present study objectively quantified the efferent-induced changes in the sharpness of
cochlear tuning estimates and compared these alterations in cochlear tuning between adults …

It has been proposed that OAEs be classified not on the basis of the stimuli used to evoke
them, but on the mechanisms that produce them (Shera and Guinan, 1999). One branch of …

Otoacoustic emissions (OAEs) are soft sounds generated by the cochlea and the
measurements of OAEs are useful in detecting cochlear damages. Stimulus frequency …
