“…Suppression based on DPOAE measurements has been described in several studies involving both humans and lower animals (e.g., Abdala, 1998Abdala, , 2001Abdala, , 2004Abdala, , 2005Brown and Kemp, 1984;Gorga et al, 2002Gorga et al, , 2008Martin et al, 1987Martin et al, , 1998aMartin et al, , 1998bMills, 1998;Pienkowski and Kunov, 2001). In these and other DPOAE suppression experiments, DPOAEs are elicited by a pair of primary tones (f 2 , f 1 ; f 2 =f 1 % 1.2), whose levels are held constant while a third, suppressor tone (f 3 ) is presented.…”
