What are the 1. Decreased audibiility
issues faced by 2. Decreased dynamic range
those individuals 3. Decreased frequncy resolution
with hearing 4. Decreased temporal resolution
loss?
,What does the Decreased sensitivity to sounds ,
term decreased poor thresholds ( elevated), reduced
audibility mean? audibility for speech sounds
Decreased number of dB levels
What does the between the softest sound you can
term decreased hear ( threshold of audibility ) and
dynamic range when sounds become painful ( level
mean? of discomfort) decreased range of
intensity levels that you can hear
What does the The clarity between frequencies is
term decreased decreased, decreased ability to tell
frequency one frequency apart from another
resolution
mean?
Refers to timing, trouble detecting ,
sensing the pauses between sounds
What does the and syllables within words, between
term decreased words in sentence, and voice onset
temporal time. Poor temporal resolution leads
resolution mean 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)
, 3 rows OHC and if they are

resolution in the frequencies
How many rows associated with the area around the
or OHC and IHC Level/part of the BM that those hair
and what cells served, would have trouble
happens if the discriminating speech sounds and
OHC damaged ? frequencies in he prescience of
others, and reduced /decreased
audibility ( especially of soft
sounds)-
Poor frequency Poor temporal resolution
resolution can
lead to what
Without the Moderate cochlear hearing loss - a
outer hair cells 40 to 60 dB loss ( because the outer
what kind of hair cells boost frequencies that are
hearing loss softer)
results
OHC increase gain for softer sounds
and brain sends signals to the
Electromotillity
cochlea to do this, the OHC act as a
of the outer hair
cochlear amplifier and they increase
