Caloric test is designed to stimulate which of the following structures? - ✔✔The
lateral semicircular canal
An individual who continues to react to new stimuli with responses that are
carried over from previous tasks exhibits... - ✔✔Perseveration
What is a complete and accurate list of the signals required by federal regulations
for monitoring audiometry in industry? - ✔✔500, 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, and
6000 Hz
An audiologist wishes to assess the progress of an adult client who is participating
in speechreading training. What can best be used to measure the client's ability to
use visual cues for sentence perception, given a minimum of auditory input? -
✔✔The Central Institute for the Deaf Everyday Speech Sentences
,The "redundancy" of language refers to the fact that... - ✔✔language is structured
so as to provide several cues to each piece of information
For live-voice presentations of the Word Intelligibility by Picture Identification
(WIPI), a 4-year-old child with severe bilateral hearing loss obtains a score of 32
percent on the right ear and 40 percent on the left ear. On the basis of these
findings, the audiologist should logically conclude that... - ✔✔scores may reflect,
in part, a delay in the child's language development
Which of the following would be more likely to ensure that the proper ratio of
clients to clinicians in an audiology clinic - ✔✔Accumulating data regarding
numbers of clients, complexity of clients' service needs, and contact hours over an
extended period of time
,The observation of a prolonged interval between waves I and V would be
consistent with which of the following? - ✔✔Retrocochlear pathology, such as an
acoustic neuroma
Individuals with normal hearing sensitivity in one ear and a severe hearing loss in
the other ear generally have difficulty with each of the following except... -
✔✔understanding speech in quiet listening situations
A common strategy for selecting hearing-aid gain involves the "half-gain" rule. This
rule specifies hat gain should be equal to one half of the... - ✔✔hearing loss in dB
HL
What is the conductive component if the AC is 50 dB and the BC is 30 dB? - ✔✔20
dB
, If the AC thresholds are: 25, 35, 50, 65, 65, and 70 dB, what is the estimated SRT?
- ✔✔50 dB
What is an accurate statement concerning measures of speech reading ability? -
✔✔The most realistic measures of speechreading are administered in a combined
visual-auditory mode
Hearing conservation programs for children often include screening with pure
tones and acoustic immittance measures, whereas programs for adults will likely
use only pure tones for screening. What justifies this difference? - ✔✔There is a
significantly higher incidence of middle-ear pathology among children than among
adults
What is true of the occlusion effect? - ✔✔It can affect the measurement of the
bone-conduction threshold at low frequencies
