Hearing

57.2K
When we hear a sound, our nervous system is detecting sound waves—pressure waves of mechanical energy traveling through a medium. The frequency of the wave is perceived as pitch, while the amplitude is perceived as loudness.

Self-Evaluation: Self-Enhancement and Self-Verification

5.8K
Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Genetic Screens02:46

Genetic Screens

5.7K
Genetic screens are tools used to identify genes and mutations responsible for phenotypes of interest. Genetic screens help identify individuals or a group of people at risk of developing  genetic diseases and help them with early intervention, targeted therapy, and reproductive options.
Forward genetic screens
Forward or “classical” genetic screens involve creating random mutations in an organism’s DNA using radiation, mutagens, or insertion of additional bases, which...

Distribution Reliability and Automation

515
Distribution reliability in electrical power systems is critical for ensuring an uninterrupted power supply to consumers at minimal cost. According to IEEE Standard Terms, reliability is the probability that a device will function without failure over a specified time period or amount of usage. For electric power distribution, this translates to maintaining continuous power supply and addressing customer concerns over power outages. Several indices, as defined by IEEE Standard 1366-2012, are...

Nursing Evaluation01:15

Nursing Evaluation

4.4K
The evaluation stage signals the end of the nursing process. The nurse gathers evaluative data to assess whether or not the patient has attained the expected results. Whereas the nurse collects data in the nursing assessment to identify the patient's health concerns, the evaluation stage data determines if the indicated health issues are resolved. Evaluative data collection includes two sections: the data acquired to evaluate patient outcomes and the time criteria for data collection.

Self-Evaluation Maintenance Model01:29

Self-Evaluation Maintenance Model

311
The Self-Evaluation Maintenance (SEM) model offers a psychological framework to understand how individuals’ self-esteem is influenced by the achievements of others, particularly those with whom they share close personal bonds. The SEM model operates when personal rather than social identity guides individuals. Central to this model is the notion that individuals have an inherent desire to preserve a favorable self-image, which is continuously shaped by interpersonal comparisons and...

Area of Science:

  • Audiology
  • Mobile Health Technology

Background:

  • Increasing demand for accessible hearing screenings.
  • Need for automated and portable hearing assessment solutions.
  • Evaluation of mobile applications for audiological testing.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the hardware requirements for mobile app-based automated hearing screenings.
  • To evaluate the efficacy of specific headphone models for app-based hearing tests.
  • To compare mobile app hearing test results with traditional audiometric tests.

Main Methods:

  • A Bekesy-based mobile application (hEAR) was developed and tested.
  • Commercial headphones (Pioneer HDJ-2000, Sennheiser HD280 Pro) were used with the app.
  • Comparison with pure-tone audiometric tests administered by an audiologist across 7 frequencies.
  • Thirty participants were recruited, with data analyzed using a generalized estimating equation model.

Main Results:

  • The Pioneer HDJ-2000 and Sennheiser HD280 Pro headphones showed no statistically significant difference compared to audiologist data.
  • Both tested headphone models demonstrated a non-significant decrease in detection probability at 4kHz and 8kHz.
  • The mobile application, with selected headphones, reproduced audiologist-quality data.

Conclusions:

  • Mobile applications are viable tools for conducting hearing screenings.
  • Appropriate headphone selection is crucial for the accuracy of app-based hearing tests.
  • Automated hearing screenings using mobile technology can achieve audiologist-level data quality.
