Lesson 12

Question 1

Although pure tones sound artificial to us, they have the advantage of

Answer 1

measuring a specific frequency without involvement of other frequencies

Question 2

Speech Reception Threshold

Answer 2

is a level above SDT by about 8-10 dB

Question 3

Dynamic Range is the usable range of hearing between

Answer 3

SRT and UCL

Question 4

The Most Comfortable Level is

Answer 4

about 65 dB SPL for normal ears and about 45 dB HL for normal ears

Question 5

The range between threshold and MCL

Answer 5

differs at each frequency

Question 6

A patient with a conductive loss

Answer 6

has the same dynamic range as normal ears

Question 7

When patients have a sensorineural loss, MCL

Answer 7

retains a relationship with the lower boundary

Question 8

Recruitment is

Answer 8

common in patient with cochlear losses

Question 9

When a patient has normal pure tone thresholds of 0 dB HL across frequencies, it is difficult to accurately measure

Answer 9

SAT

Question 10

When a patient has a large conductive component, it is difficult to accurately measure

Answer 10

UCL
