Inhaltsangabe

A companion to the textbook Audiology: Science to Practice, Fourth Edition, this workbook provides exercises and questions in hearing and vestibular science and audiology clinical principles and procedures. It covers the properties of sound and speech acoustics, the anatomy and functions of the auditory and vestibular systems, pure-tone audiometry, speech audiometry, disorders of the auditory and vestibular systems, their screening and treatment, and other topics. This edition has expanded exercises on scientific foundations and new questions on wavelength, resonance, decibels, signal-to-noise ratio, complex vibrations, stages of transduction through the auditory system, psychoacoustics, anatomy and physiology, audiogram interpretation and description, and masking; new and revised anatomy figures; new exercises related to clinical topics, including preparation for patient testing, case history, wideband acoustic immitance, and evoked physiologic responses; a new chapter with exercises on hearing aids, assistive listening technology systems, aural rehabilitation, and implantable devices; an expanded chapter of case studies; and multiple-choice questions at the end of each chapter. Answers are provided at the end of the book. Annotation ©2022 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
