Enhanced Place Specificity of the Parallel Auditory Brainstem Response: An Electrophysiological Study
Thomas J Stoll,
Ross K Maddox
Abstract:PurposeThis study investigates the effect of parallel stimulus presentation on the place specificity of the auditory brainstem response (ABR) in human listeners. Frequency-specific stimuli do not guarantee a response place on the cochlea corresponding only to that characteristic frequency – especially for brief and high-level stimuli. Masking techniques can ensure place specific responses, and prior modeling has suggested parallel presentation of frequency-specific stimuli improves place specificity. We tested… Show more
