| Description | The auditory sensitivity for detecting linear frequency sweeps of a continuous pure tone has been studied in ten young subjects with cochlear hearing loss. The mean thresholds were elevated by a factor of 2.8 as compared with a normal group over the whole range of ramp durations studied (10–500 msec). The results show that this elevation is most likely caused mainly by the cochlear lesion per se, other possible factors having only a minor effect. No clear correlations could be found between thresholds for frequency change and results of other pure tone audiometric tests. Such tests thus cannot predict a subject's frequency discrimination. |
