Amplitude and phase of the sound pressure measured in the closed ear canal during stimulation with pure tones have been monitored as a function of frequency for subjects with and without measurable spontaneous emissions. The frequency spacing between neighboring maxima of the evoked emissions is closely related to that found between neighboring spontaneous emissions. Similar data are found with delayed evoked emissions. All three catagories , spontaneous, delayed, and synchronous evoked emissions are closely related to each other and to the fine structure of threshold in quiet.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
