When does the cochlea reach an adult functioning level?
|
20 weeks gestation
|
|
At what point can researchers record a fetal sound response?
What exactly are they recording? |
After 20 weeks gestation.
They are measuring the increase in the fetal heart rate as it responds to high frequency tones |
|
What sort of reaction to sound can we expect to see at 24 to 25 weeks gestation?
|

|
T/F
After 20 weeks, how the fetus hears in the womb is generally the same as how s/he will hear once born. |
False.
Attenuation of high frequency sounds makes the sound input different. |
|
T/F

|
T/F
A newborn infant is able to distinguish its mothers voice from that of other female speakers. |
True

auditory localization response:
birth to 4 months |
newborn- arousal from sleep

|
a startle response
|
|
auditory localization response:
birth --> 4 months |
newborn: arousal from sleep
awake infant in quiet: eye blink, eye-widening, STARTLE 3-4 months: slow, rudimentary head turn towards sound (not consistent) |
|
auditory localization response:
4-->7 months |
head turn towards sound more consistently
7 mo.: neck strong enough to directly turn to sound source (LATERALLY ONLY--won't look at sound directly above or below eye level) |
|
auditory localization response:
7-->9 months |
locates LATERALLY AND BELOW (response is brisk and firm, precise)
likely won't look above eye level |
|
auditory localization response:
9-->24 months |
13 mo.:quick localization to side and below and indirectly above
16 mo.: localize directly on any plane 21 mo.: full maturation of auditory localization response |
|
T/F

|
Who is the most important source of info about an infant/child's use of hearing?
|
The child's parent. They have made continuous observation about their child's response to sound
|
|
Besides observations of sound responses, what other areas of information do we want to glean from the parent in an interview?
|
Developmental concerns
speech/language concerns educational concerns social issues |
|
Why would you need to conduct an interview similar in scope to a speech/language evaluation interview?
|
Because if the child does not have a hearing loss, we need to make appropriate referrals if we suspect:
dev. delay oral motor problems specific language problems autism spectrum |
|
Interview topics in audiologic eval:
|
statement of the problem
family history prenatal/postnatal history birth history infant/newborn factors infant/childhood history medical history communication history social history educational history |
|
If conducting a parent interview, give examples of questions you would ask about the child's auditory responses.
|
auditory: "What type of sounds does s/he react to at home?", "How does he react?", "How loud does it have to be?", "How does s/he react when you call her name?"
|
|
If conducting a parent interview, give examples of questions you would ask about the child's speech/language productions?
|
speech/language:
"What types of sounds does the infant make?", "Can the child imitate sounds, words, etc.?", "What words does s/he understand?" |
|
Why is the case history/parent interview an important part of the assessment process?
|
It allows for:
clarification or further detail of info gathered observation of parent/child interaction observation of child's auditory & speech behaviors determination of developmental age vs. chronological age info leading to selection of an appropriate test establishment of rapport |
|
What are some questions you could ask to ascertain the parent/child interaction at home?
