Identify different types of hearing devices
... ALDs can be fitted instead of hearing aids (devices), and they can also be fitted to work in conjunction with hearing aids (devices). ALDs usually perform more specialised functions than hearing aids (devices), and are thus chosen according to specific need/s. In this section it may seem as if we’re ...

ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: THE EFFECT OF THE MENSTRUAL CYCLE ON EVOKED
... OAEs are soft sounds produced by the cochlea that can be measured in the ear canal using a sensitive microphone. The presence of these sounds indicates normal function of the cochlea and, in particular, of the outer hair cells (e.g., Brownell, 1990; Kemp, Ryan, & Bray, 1990). There are two main type ...
