  1. Effects of Smoking/nicotine on the Auditory Middle Latency Response in Older and Younger Adults

    Ramkissoon, IsharaUniversity of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign2015

    This is a first study describing long-term smoking effects on the AMLR in older individuals. Current findings are discussed in terms of nicotine's effect on the central auditory pathways. The possible interaction of advanced age, hearing loss, and gender are also considered. Several follow-up …

  2. Objective Measures of Tinnitus in Humans

    Melamed, Sarah BethUniversity of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign2015

    Currently, the only means of assessing tinnitus and evaluating tinnitus treatments is by subjective measures (e.g. behavioral tests, questionnaires). Subjective methods, while important for clinical assessment, do not offer a reliable way to distinguish peripherally vs. centrally driven dysfunction …

  3. Consonant Loss Profile and Perceptual Confusions for Hearing-Impaired Listeners in Noise

    Yoon, Yang-SooUniversity of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign2015

    The results of experiment III showed that consonant recognition performance of three HI benefited from NAL-R gain, whereas performance of three other HI were affected negatively. The effect of gain was not consistent for a given CV across HI, but was listener-dependent. The CLP comparing gain and …

  4. Electrically Evoked Auditory Potentials Recorded at Three Levels of the Auditory Pathway From Multichannel Cochlear Implant Subjects: Characterization and Comparison to Behavioral Measures

    Firszt, Jill BlairUniversity of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign2015

    Results of varied stimulus levels and implanted electrode sites were used to characterize the electrophysiologic responses of the EABR, EAMLR, and ELAR with regard to latency, amplitude and evoked potential thresholds (EPT). Comparisons between the EPTs and behavioral measures suggest that …

  7. Discriminability of Interaural Time Disparities by Normal Listeners and Listeners With High-Frequency Sensorineural Hearing Loss

    Smoski, Walter JohnUniversity of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign2014

    Four listeners with high-frequency, sensorineural hearing loss and two normal listeners served as subjects in experiments concerning the detection of interaural time-delays using a 500 Hz pure tone, a sinusoidally-amplitude-modulated 4 kHz tone and narrow band noises centered on either 500 Hz or 4 …

  8. Frequency-Discrimination Performance of Normal-Hearing and Hearing-Impaired Listeners

    Matthies, Melanie LynneUniversity of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign2014

    Frequency-discrimination data were obtained for 12 normal-hearing and six hearing-impaired subjects with a 3-interval, 2-cued, yes/no task for a variety of signals. These signals included pure tones, fixed-bandwidth (400 Hz) narrow-band noise and ratio-bandwidth (20%) narrow-band noise. Analyses …

  14. Speech Reception Threshold in Noise

    Lewis, Harold DonellUniversity of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign2014

    The audiological literature is replete with studies attesting to the disproportionate difficulty experienced by individuals with certain high-frequency hearing impairments when listening in noise. It has been suggested that these listeners exhibit a signal-to-noise ratio deficit when compared to …
