• The acoustic reflex threshold in aging ears

  The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America · 1983-01-01 · 12 citations

  articleSenior author

  This study investigates the controversy regarding the influence of age on the acoustic reflex threshold for broadband noise, 500-, 1000-, 2000-, and 4000-Hz activators between Jerger et al. [Mono. Contemp. Audiol. 1 (1978)] and Jerger [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 66 (1979)] on the one hand and Silman [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 66 (1979)] and others on the other. The acoustic reflex thresholds for broadband noise, 500-, 1000-, 2000-, and 4000-Hz activators were evaluated under two measurement conditions. Seven…

• Genetics and Deafness: Implications for Education and Life Care of Deaf Students

  American annals of the deaf · 2008-09-01 · 9 citations

  articleSenior author

  The severity of deafness can obscure the presence of other disabilities that may accompany genetic anomalies, such as occur in Alport and Usher syndromes. Recent advances in genetics have heightened attention to various disabilities and dysfunctions that may coexist with deafness. Failure to recognize these additional disabilities when they occur can misguide educational planning; may open the afflicted deaf person to failure to identify, diagnose, and manage potentially serious health condition…

• Selected complex auditory disorders

  The Journal of Rehabilitation Research and Development · 2005-01-01 · 5 citations

  review1st authorCorresponding

  This article provides an overview of four auditory disorders relevant generally to adults and especially to veterans. The disorders are noise-induced hearing loss, idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss, otosclerosis, and Méniàre's disease. Sensorineural hearing loss characterizes each, but additional aspects vary with each of the four conditions. This article describes the conditions, discusses their diagnoses and treatments, and outlines current and suggested rehabilitation. The emphasis…

• Noise Exposure, Hearing Loss, Speech Discrimination and Tinnitus

  The Journal of Laryngology & Otology · 1984-06-01 · 5 citations

  article1st authorCorresponding

  Noise exposure in the workplace and the recreational environment probably accounts for more new cases of tinnitus and hearing loss than all other causes combined. To an increasing degree, preemployment audiograms of late teenagers and those in their early twenties show noise-induced, sensorineural ‘notches’ greatest at 4000 or 6000 Hz with partial or complete recovery at 8000 Hz. Word discrimination tests, as typically evaluated in a clinical situation, show essentially normal findings although…
