Student Musicians' Perception Of Loudness And How It Correlates To The Measured Level, Amanda Moore Jan 2010

Student Musicians' Perception Of Loudness And How It Correlates To The Measured Level, Amanda Moore

Independent Studies and Capstones

The purpose of this project was to evaluate student musicians’ perception of loudness and see how it relates to the measured sound level when playing an instrument alone and when playing in an orchestra. Perhaps by examining this relationship, strategies can be developed to educate musicians on the risk of excessive noise exposure and hearing protection options.

Comparing Speech Assessments: The Usefulness Of The Deap As Compared To The Gfta-2, Ashley Brianne Pitts

Independent Studies and Capstones

This study seeks to evaluate whether the DEAP, a new speech assessment that assesses vowels in addition to consonants, is as effective with children who are deaf and hard of hearing as an older, more established speech assessment, the GFTA-2.


Genetic And Temporal Aspects Of Protection By Kanamycin Against Cochlear Noise Injury, Allyson D. Rosen Jan 2010

Genetic And Temporal Aspects Of Protection By Kanamycin Against Cochlear Noise Injury, Allyson D. Rosen

Independent Studies and Capstones

Experiments explored the minimal kanamycin dosing regimen that renders protection against noise induced hearing loss in young CBA/J mice. We also tested the age-dependence of protection in CBA/J as well as the dependence of protection on a particular genetic background in experiments using young C57BL/6J and CBA/CaJ mice.

The primary objective of this research study is to determine if various body positions for ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potential (oVEMP) testing demonstrate differentiation of the saccule and utricle through threshold responses.


Representation Of Cued Speech In Teacher Of The Deaf And Hard Of Hearing Preparation Programs, Aaron Rose Jan 2010

Representation Of Cued Speech In Teacher Of The Deaf And Hard Of Hearing Preparation Programs, Aaron Rose

Independent Studies and Capstones

This descriptive study investigates the representation of Cued Speech in teacher of the deaf preparation programs as well as attitudes towards inclusion of Cued Speech in those programs in the context of the 2004 reauthorization of IDEA. The issue of Cued Speech is discussed as a communication modality and implications for deaf education are presented.


Outcomes Of Conventional Amplification For Pediatric Unilateral Hearing Loss, Lauren A. Wendorf Jan 2010

Outcomes Of Conventional Amplification For Pediatric Unilateral Hearing Loss, Lauren A. Wendorf

Independent Studies and Capstones

Although some children with unilateral hearing loss (UHL) are at-risk for educational difficulties and behavioral problems, research in treatment outcomes for pediatric UHL is limited. The objective of this study was to examine the benefits of a conventional hearing aid in children with mild to moderately severe UHL, using speech perception measures and subjective assessments from the child, parent, and teacher.

Anatomic Correlates Of Strial Presbycusis In Recombinant Inbred Mouse Strains, Christina M. Walkonis Jan 2010

Anatomic Correlates Of Strial Presbycusis In Recombinant Inbred Mouse Strains, Christina M. Walkonis

Independent Studies and Capstones

This project attempts to identify anatomic features that predict the range of the ‘normal’ endocochlear potential in young inbred mice. Cochlear lateral wall histologic metrics were compared in recombinant inbred (RI) mouse strains formed from BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice.


Histological And Functional Aspects Of Alpha-Synuclein In Neurodegeneration, Lauren Noelle Lawler Jan 2010

Histological And Functional Aspects Of Alpha-Synuclein In Neurodegeneration, Lauren Noelle Lawler

Independent Studies and Capstones

Alpha-synuclein has been implicated in the cellular mechanisms that control auditory sensitivity. In other systems it can also confer protection against cellular injury. Auditory brainstem response thresholds and immunohistochemistry were used to assess the ability of alpha-synuclein to protect against oxidative damage to the cochlea.
