This paper describes a new "class" of auditory tests designed to evaluated the ability of young children to detect commonly encountered sounds; localize sound sources; and understand speech in noise. The tests appear to be sensitive to the effects of auditory pathology and to the normal development of auditory processing skills. (DB)

In a test of auditory discrimination, 15 normal adults and 15 subjects with sensorineural hearing loss repeated monosyllabic words under conventional and subject-controlled methods of presentation. (Author/LS)

A simple computer system developed to carry out audiometric procedures that complement the human limitations of the audiologist was evaluated with 36 patients at a veterans hospital. (LS)

The text, designed for students and others interested in clinical audiology, is intended to provide comprehensive coverage of not only important concepts in audiology but particularly of the methods and procedures used in audiological assessment. The functions of tests, the administration of specific tests, and the analysis of test results are…

Twenty-five noisemakers were analyzed with regard to amplitude versus frequency to determine their potential effectiveness for use in pediatric audiological evaluations. (Author)
