Potential hearing compensation cost by race and sex
Abstract:
A large general industrial population (n = 10,000) is analyzed using different low fences (15 bB HTL to 35 dB HTL) with the high fence held constant at 93 dB HTL. Three different audiometric test frequency combinations are considered: HTL.5,1,2 kHz, HTL.5,1,2,3 kHz and HTL1,2,3 kHz. The data base is analyzed first as a total population and then divided into different subpopulations including male, female, black and whites; and further subdivided into black males, black females, white males and white females. The findings indicate that significant differences exist between the groupings with respect to the potential hearing compensation cost and percent of a population exceeding the different low fence frequency combinations.

Sound Intensity Level
The human ear can perceive an extensive range of sound intensity, necessitating the use of the logarithmic scale to define a physical quantity—the intensity level. It is a ratio of two intensities and hence a...
Perceiving Loudness, Pitch, and Location
Place theory, or place coding, suggests that different pitches are heard because various sound waves activate specific locations along the cochlea's basilar membrane. The brain determines the pitch of a sound by identifying...
