Hearing sensitivity and the prevalence of spontaneous otoacoustic emissions show parallel
ear and sex differences in humans. Here it is proposed that these lateral asymmetries and …

Spontaneous otoacoustic emissions (SOAEs), which occur in about 40% of normal-hearing
humans, do not have a firm explanation in auditory theory nor are their distributional …

This fully updated and revised sixth edition of Hearing: An Introduction to Psychological and
Physiological Acoustics provides a comprehensive introduction for graduate students and …

The time-course of the human medial olivocochlear reflex (MOCR) was measured via its
suppression of stimulus-frequency otoacoustic emissions (SFOAEs) in nine ears. MOCR …

Mammalian spontaneous otoacoustic emissions (SOAEs) have been suggested to arise by
three different mechanisms. The local-oscillator model, dating back to the work of Thomas …

Evoked and spontaneous otoacoustic emissions were recorded bilaterally in a group of
normal subjects (n= 14) using clicks and tonebursts at four frequencies (0.5, 1, 1.5, and 3 …

Spontaneous otoacoustic emissions were evaluated in 36 female and 40 male subjects. In
agreement with the results of previous surveys, emissions were found to be more prevalent …

The realization that otoacoustic emissions are sensitive to cochlear disorders has resulted in
the speculation that they may have considerable clinical potential as objective measures of …

Previous work on acoustic distortion products (DPs) recorded from the ear canal has not
established unequivocally whether emitted DPs principally reflect basilar-membrane …

Comparative studies of vertebrate hearing organs have enabled an integrated approach to
difficult questions related to function. Recent evidence for the independent evolution of …
