Auditory pathway - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

International Hearing Society Study Guide 2024 What problem is introduced when a hearing instrument is inserted into the concha and/or EAM in regards to resonance? How is it fixed> - ANS-Eliminates naturally occuring resonances of samefrequency signals, which must be fixed through the instrument for more natural-sounding amplification Frequency range to which the outer is is more sensitive - ANS-2700 Hz to 5000 Hz Professionalism - ANS-The practice of an occupation with the highest stan...

How are CI's different from hearing aids? correct answers Hearing Aids can be updated and uses the normal auditory pathway for all HL but Cochlear Implants are only for SNHL and only use the technology available at that time •Hearing aids correct answers most will do 99% good w/them send sound through normal pathway of sound acoustically amplify sound focus on speech understanding •Cochlear Implants: correct answers --people that dint do well w/HA because they dint meet persons nee...

Sound waves are ___; compression is __ of a wave, rarefaction is ___ ~~> longitudinal - move like a slinky; top; bottom Period ~~> the time taken for one up-down cycle (wavelength) Wavelength ~~> the distance b/w two peaks/an up-down cycle Universal wave equation ~~> speed = distance/time = wavelength/period Higher pitch = ~~> higher frequency - but perception depends on the environment Sound frequency ~~> - longer wavelengths = lower frequency - basilar membr...

Optic Nerve Fibers (anterior) 2. Optic Chiasm 3. Thalamus 4. Cerebral Cortex Match the auditory terms to the definitions. - Opening of the auditory canal to the outside body. - thin layer of tissue between the inner and outer ear; eardrum - One of three smal...

- auditory perception: sound transformation up to the auditory pathway 1. sound waves (air) 2. ossicular vibrations (bone) 3. basilar membrane waves (fluid) 4. hair cell/ stereocilia movement 5. neural firing correct answers how is sound transformed along the auditory pathway? - OUTER: pinna and air canal resonance - pinna creates the range of sensitivity on equal loudness curve correct answers how is the auditory representation affected by the transformations? - individuals are m...
