  • Title: Pure-tone sensitivity and ear canal pressure at threshold in children and adults.
    Author: Yoneshige Y, Elliott LL.
    Journal: J Acoust Soc Am; 1981 Nov; 70(5):1272-6. PubMed ID: 7334168.
    Abstract:
    Previous investigation have found that young children have poorer pure-tone auditory sensitivity than older children or adults. This study addressed the question of whether these age-related sensitivity differences are attributable to children having middle ear disorders that produce a conductive hearing loss or to differences in ear canal sound pressure at threshold. Results ruled out both of these possible explanations for the age effect.
