BASIC AUDIOLOGY TEST 1 | 100% Correct
Answers | Verified | Latest 2024 Version
The designation of the clinical doctorate in audiology is the - ✔✔AuD
Most audiologists work in - ✔✔a medical setting
To practice audiology one needs - ✔✔a license or registration within the state you wish to practice
During the Weber test, the stem of the tuning for is held against - ✔✔the forehead
Bone conduction testing bypasses - ✔✔bypasses the conductive mechanism
When a tuning fork is held to the right mastoid of an individual with conductive hearing loss in their left
ear and sensorinerual hearing loss in their right ear, the tone - ✔✔will be heard in the left ear only
If a person hears a bone conducted tone and then plugs their ears, the tone will become louder in they
have - ✔✔NORMAL HEARING
Conductive hearing loss may be produced by all the following except
a) middle ear infection
b)damaged outer hair cells
c)hole in eardrum
d) broken ossicles - ✔✔b-damaged outer hair cells
the term air/bone gap suggests that - ✔✔bone conduction is better than air conduction
as of 2012, applicants for ASHA certification in audiology must have - ✔✔1820 hours of supervision
, The purpose of a hearing screening is to - ✔✔identify the possible presence of hearing loss
the pressure refrence for just audible hearing is - ✔✔2 x 10^1 micropascals
Important aspects of a decibel - ✔✔-it involves a ratio
-it utilizes a logarithm
-it is, therefore, non-linear
-must be specified in terms of a reference level
-it is a relative unit of measure
The bing test - ✔✔Determines the presence of the occlusion effect
In a mixed hearing loss - ✔✔there is impairment in both the conductive and sensorineural mechanisms
The conductive mechanism includes - ✔✔the pinna,ear canal, ossicles eustachian
it is essential that the examiner have normal hearing when performing the - ✔✔Schwabach test
A sensorineural heaing loss could be caused by disorder of the - ✔✔audiotry nerve and inner ear
The air conduction pathway includes - ✔✔outer ear, middle ear, inner ear, audiotry nerve
The air conduction and bone conduction sound pathways intersect at the - ✔✔cochlea
Which of the followingstatement is false
air conduction may be the same as BC
air conduction may be poorer than BC
air conduction may be better than BC - ✔✔air conduction may be better than bone conduction
