individuals with 4. Decreased temporal resolution
hearing loss?
,What does the Decreased sensitivity to sounds ,
term decreased poor thresholds ( elevated),
audibility reduced audibility for speech
mean? sounds
Decreased number of dB levels

dynamic range
level of discomfort) decreased
mean?
range of intensity levels that you
can hear
What does the The clarity between frequencies is
term decreased decreased, decreased ability to tell

What does the sounds and syllables within words,
term decreased between words in sentence, and
temporal voice onset time. Poor temporal
resolution mean resolution leads to poor speech
? understanding because the person
has trouble distinguishing between
parts of the sentences and words.
, OHC damage causes a decreased
sensitivity for soft sounds, - can
hear less of the speech sounds in
higher intensities ( dB level)
—-because the OHCs sharpen the
peak of the traveling wave for
sounds <40 dB ( this means it won't
Damage to the vibrate the basilar membrane
outer hair cells around that specific frequency (
causes what ? sound) as much so that the sound
can be discerned better by IHC) ,
and this boosts these sounds (
increases the gain for these
sounds) to allow the IHC to sense
these softer sounds ( increases the
displacement on the basilar
membrane)
