Look at the research source card:

Source A

URL:http://www.jstor.org/sounddecibelresearch/article

Direct quote: “Studies show that the increasing decibel levels of headphones is having a negative affect of the development of adolescent ears. Adolescent ears are still developing and thus, excessive decibels, damaging noise receptors, is stunting the ability of the inner ear to fully form.”

Notes: This research supports my thesis that headphones are a hazard to student-age children. It could easily connect to my research from source B about dangerous decibel levels.
