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 ...
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 ...
Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emissions in Normal-Hearing Children with Homozygous Sickle Cell Disease
(East Carolina University, 2003)
The purpose of this study was to investigate distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) in young normal-hearing children with sickle cell disease (SCD). It was hypothesized that the prevalence of DPOAEs and response ...
Effects of Frequency Altered Feedback on Reading Comprehension Abilities of Normal and Reading Disordered Children
(East Carolina University, 2007)
Effects of Age, Gender, Bolus Volume, and Trial on Swallowing Apnea Duration and Swallow/Respiratory Phase Relationships of Normal Adults
(East Carolina University, 2001)
The effects of age, gender, bolus volume, and trial on swallowing apnea duration (SAD) and swallow/respiratory phase relationships were examined. Sixty adults, comprised of ten males and ten females in each of three age ...
Effect of Single and Combined Altered Auditory Feedback on Stuttering Frequency at Two Speech Rates
(East Carolina University, 1995)
The purpose of the study was to determine if combining delayed auditory feedback (DAF) and frequency altered feedback (FAF) would be more fluency enhancing than either DAF or FAF alone. Ten stutterers read at normal and ...
Predicting Compliance in Voice Therapy using the Voice Handicap Index
(East Carolina University, 2010)
Research indicates that it is not uncommon for patients to cancel or postpone scheduled appointments for speech therapy designed to improve the voice, i.e., voice therapy. The purpose of this study is to determine if ...
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 ...
Unilateral Auditory Temporal Resolution Deficit: A Case Study
(East Carolina University, 1999)
An adult with a unilateral precipitous severe high-frequency hearing loss displayed a selective auditory temporal resolution deficit in the poorer ear despite excellent word recognition ability in quiet bilaterally. Word ...
Self-contained In-The-Ear device to deliver altered auditory feedback: applications for stuttering
(East Carolina University, 2003)
The design and operating characteristics of the first self-contained in-the-ear device to deliver altered auditory feedback is described for applications with those who stutter. The device incorporates a microdigital signal ...
