Methods and devices for delivering exogenously generated speech signals to enhance fluency in persons who stutter
(2004-06-22)Methods and devices generate an exogenous natural second speech signal as an auditory stimulus to a user to enhance the fluency of persons who stutter. The natural speech signal is independent of the contemporaneous speech ... -
Comparison Of The Mismatch Negativity and A Differential Waveform Response
(East Carolina University, 2005)A mismatch negativity response (MMN) and a new differential waveform were derived in an effort to evaluate a neural refractory or recovery effect in adult listeners. The MMN was elicited using oddball test runs in which ... -
Characterization of Vestibular Dysfunction in the Mouse Model for Usher Syndrome 1F
(East Carolina University, 2005-06)The deaf-circling Ames waltzer (av) mouse harbors a mutation in the protocadherin 15 (Pcdh15) gene and is a model for inner ear defects associated with Usher syndrome type 1F. Earlier studies showed altered cochlear hair ... -
Systems, methods and products for diagnostic hearing assessments distributed via the use of a computer network
(2005-07-12)The systems, methods and associated devices performing diagnostic hearing tests which use a computer network to allow interaction between a test administration site and one or a plurality of remote patient sites. The test ... -
Blogging in an Online Health Information Technology Class
(East Carolina University, 2005-09)In this article we introduce blogs, including their brief history, their current status, and motivations for blogging. We describe how we created a course blog in one online Health information management (HIM) baccalaureate ... -
A Quantitative Survey of Gravity Receptor Function in Mutant Mouse Strains
(East Carolina University, 2005-12)The purpose of this research was to identify vestibular deficits in mice using linear vestibular evoked potentials (VsEPs). VsEP thresholds, peak latencies, and peak amplitudes from 24 strains with known genetic mutations ... -
Investigations Of The Impact Of Altered Auditory Feedback In-The-Ear Devices On The Speech Of People Who Stutter: One-Year Follow-Up
(East Carolina University, 2006)Purpose: This study examined objective and subjective measures of the effect of a self-contained ear-level device delivering altered auditory feedback (AAF) for those who stutter 12 months following initial fitting with ... -
Insights Into Elevated Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emissions In Sickle Cell Disease: Comparisons of Hydroxyurea-treated and Non-treated Young Children
(East Carolina University, 2006)Distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) were examined in 15 normal- hearing African-American children between the ages of 6 and 14 years with homozygous sickle cell disease (SCD), who were on a regimen of hydroxyurea ... -
Auditory Temporal Resolution In Normal Hearing Preschool Children Revealed by Word Recognition In Continuous And Interrupted Noise
(East Carolina University, 2006)The purpose of this study was to examine temporal resolution in normal hearing pre-school children. Word recognition was evaluated in quiet and in spectrally identical continuous and interrupted noise at signal-to-noise ... -

A comparison of vestibular and auditory phenotypes in inbred mouse strains
(East Carolina University, 2006-05-26)The purposes of this research were to quantify gravity receptor function in inbred mouse strains and compare vestibular and auditory function for strain- and age-matched animals. Vestibular evoked potentials (VsEPs) were ... -
Can Factors Related to Self-regulated Learning and Epistemological Beliefs Predict Learning Achievement in Undergraduate Asynchronous Web-based Courses?
(East Carolina University, 2006-08-30)This study examined the effects of self-regulated learning (SRL) and epistemological beliefs (EB) on individual learner levels of academic achievement in Web-based learning environments while holding constant the effect ... -

Modeling survival in colon cancer: a methodological review
(East Carolina University, 2007-02-12)The Cox proportional hazards model is the most widely used model for survival analysis because of its simplicity. The fundamental assumption in this model is the proportionality of the hazard function. When this condition ... -
Orphan Glutamate Receptor delta-1 Subunit Required for High-Frequency Hearing
(East Carolina University, 2007-06)The function of the orphan glutamate receptor delta subunits (GluR 1 and GluR 2) remains unclear. GluR 2 is expressed exclusively in the Purkinje cells of the cerebellum, and GluR 1 is prominently expressed in inner ear ... -
Spontaneous Discharge Patterns in Cochlear Spiral Ganglion Cells Prior to the Onset of Hearing in Cats
(East Carolina University, 2007-10)Spontaneous neural activity has been recorded in the auditory nerve of cats as early as 2 days postnatal (P2 ), yet individual auditory neurons do not respond to ambient sound levels below 90–100 dB SPL until about P10. ...
