Brain-stem auditory evoked response: normative values in children.
Normative values of brain-stem auditory evoked response (BAER) derived from a large (N = 174) normal school age sample are presented. In our 4-14 years of age sample we found a significant influence of sex on some BAER components, and a significant influence of age on others. The norms have been computed according to these influences. Particular aspects of the influence of age and sex are also discussed.
