ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to find out effects of stimulus type on auditory steady-state responses (ASSRs). So we evaluated ASSR amplitudes, thresholds and differences between ASSR and pure tone thresholds according to the stimulus type for the normal hearing group. Thirty adults (15 males;15 females) participated in this study. ASSRs were obtained using MASTER system (version 2.01) at carrier frequencies of 500, 1000, 2000, 4000 Hz with modulation frequencies 82-99 Hz and stimuli were AM (amplitude modulation), AM2, AM/FM (mixed modulation, MM), AM2/FM tones with 30 and 50 dBHL. Results were as follows. Firstly ASSR amplitudes increased orderly AM, AM2, AM/FM, AM2/FM tones at 30 and 50 dBHL except for 500 Hz. And ASSR amplitudes with 50 dBHL were significantly larger than those with 30 dBHL. Secondly, ASSR thresholds and differences between ASSR and pure tone thresholds were decreased orderly AM, AM2, AM/FM, AM2/FM tones. These data suggested that ASSR with AM/ FM or AM2/FM tone can be used more efficiently than ASSR with AM or AM2 tone.
Key Words: Amplitude modulation (AM)·Auditory steady state responses (ASSRs)·Mixed modulation (MM).
