Pronounced acoustic reflex decay is associated with what? - Answer ✔ Pathologies
located between the cochlea and cochlear nucleus

,A cookie bite configuration is associated with - Answer ✔ Metabolic cochlear pathology

Auditory Steady State Response determines thresholds by utilizing - Answer ✔
Amplitudes and phases in the spectral (or frequency) domain

ABR determines thresholds by utilizing - Answer ✔ Amplitude and latency

If an ABR wave I is normal, but latencies between waves I-III and I-IV are abnormally
prolonged indicate - Answer ✔ Retrocochlear pathology

CI programming strategy that adjacent electrodes may be stimulated simultaneously to
shift the perceived pitch in any direction - Answer ✔ Current steering

What uses low compression threshold and low compression ratio? - Answer ✔ WDRC

CI Programming where a channel is generated by one implanted electrode, and the
original spectrum is reproduced by 8-10 fixed channels - Answer ✔ Advanced
combination encoder ACE

CI programming strategy where the original spectrum is reproduced by 15 virtual
channels, and all electrode pairs are turned on in a predefined sequence within 15
consecutive clock cycles - Answer ✔ HiRes 120

A prolonged interval between wave I-V indicate - Answer ✔ Retrocochlear pathology

Utilizing wide dynamic range compression most likely will - Answer ✔ Increase speech
perception at low input levels

Wide dynamic range compression makes soft sounds audible and loud sounds
comfortable by: - Answer ✔ Widening the range of input intensity levels while allowing
output to be between the auditory threshold and loudness discomfort level of the user

What is the acceptable error that an audiometer may differ from the RETSPL or
RETFL? - Answer ✔ +/- 2.5dB

In an ABR, why is wave V dominated by energy in the 2-4kHz range? - Answer ✔
Because the click stimulus only has energy at 2-4kHz

What reflects the compression parameters used with WDRC - Answer ✔ Low
compression threshold and low compression ratio- provides additional gain for low input
levels with low compression threshold and gradual increase in gain as input levels
increase using low compression ratios

aural rehab? - Answer ✔ periodically administering probes of treatment targets in
naturalistic contexts

What is the AI-DI - Answer ✔ Ratio of microphone output for signals in front vs.
directional- the larger the number, the better the AI-DI
