... Air molecules are moving, they are “caught” by the external ear. This causes the membrane connecting the outer ear (tympanic membrane) to the middle ear move. This then makes the 3 little bones in the middle ear move (malleus - means hammer – incus – means anvil – and stapes – means stirrup). Look…a ...

... Sound is transmitted as sound waves that are collected by the outer ear and sent down the ear canal to the eardrum. The sound waves cause the eardrum to vibrate which sets the three tiny bones (the ‘ossicles’) in the middle ear in motion. The motion of these bones causes fluid in the inner ear (the ...

The words begin at 80% of normal duration and get more and more compressed until the listener can no longer identify the target word. This skill requires the listener to use decreasing amounts of ...

Addressing ANSD (Auditory Neuropathy Spectrum Disorder)

Hearing may also decrease or remain the same over time. Even when there is no change in hearing, testing should be ongoing. If there appears to ...

Auditory system
The auditory system is the sensory system for the sense of hearing. It includes both the sensory organs (the ears) and the auditory parts of the sensory system.
