Does the Number of Stimuli Influence the Formation of the Endogenous Components of the Event-Related Auditory Evoked Potentials?

 The number of stimuli is important to determine the quality of auditory evoked potential records. However, there is no consensus on that number in studies, especially in the sample studied.  To investigate the influence of the number of rare stimuli on forming N2 and P3 components, with different types of acoustic stimuli.

Behavioral and Electrophysiological Assessment of Adults Who Underwent Cochlear Implantation After Hearing Aid Experience.

 Cochlear implantation has been considered a viable option to restore hearing perception in adults with severe to profound postlingual hearing loss.  To analyze behavioral hearing responses and P300 latency and amplitude measurements in adults with bilateral sensorineural hearing loss at two phases, first when they were using hearing aids (HAs) and, then, after 12 months of cochlear implant (CI) use. The association between behavioral and electrophysiological evaluations was explored, as it is believed that the study of auditory processing with different hearing devices can contribute to future CI adjustments and fittings, especially for patients who cannot give subjective feedback (such as small children and individuals with multiple disabilities).
