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.

Auditory Perception

670
The auditory system is essential for sound perception, utilizing various critical structures. When sound waves enter the outer ear, they travel through the ear canal and cause the eardrum to vibrate. These vibrations are then transmitted to the middle ear, where three tiny bones – the malleus, incus, and stapes – amplify the sound. This amplification is crucial, as it ensures that the sound vibrations are strong enough to be conveyed to the inner ear. These vibrations then reach the...

Area of Science:

  • Audiology
  • Medical Education Technology

Background:

  • Traditional audiology education relies on physical equipment.
  • Integrating technology can enhance learning experiences in healthcare fields.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a virtual tool for teaching Pure Tone Audiometry (PTA) and speech audiometry.
  • To integrate technology into audiology education for didactic purposes.

Main Methods:

  • A virtual tool was created using Visual Basic 6, modeling the Interacoustics AD229b audiometer.
  • Simulated patient responses, hearing threshold recording, and speech audiometry functions were implemented.

Main Results:

  • The virtual tool accurately reproduces frequencies (125 Hz-8000 Hz) and intensities (-10 to 110 dB).
  • Features include clinical masking (air/bone conduction) and a microphone button for speech audiometry practice.

Conclusions:

  • The virtual audiometer effectively mirrors its physical counterpart, facilitating technology integration in audiology teaching.
  • The tool provides a feasible method for exemplifying PTA and speech audiometry principles.
