A systematic investigation of measurement parameters of acoustic-reflex adaptation. 1979

G D Givens, and M F Seidemann

Acoustic-reflex adaptation was assessed in 49 normal ears. Acoustic reflexes were elicited by the use of contralateral stimulation at four frequencies and five sensation levels. The results displayed the effects of stimulus frequency and sensation level on the amount of acoustic-reflex adaptation. Suggestions are presented for clinical procedures for obtaining contralateral acoustic reflex adaptation measures.
