Brain-stem auditory evoked potentials in different age groups.
Brain-stem auditory potential (BAEP) latencies were measured from individuals with normal or nearly normal hearing. Different age groups were studied separately. Males have 0.1-0.2 msec longer latencies of waves III and V and longer I-V IPLs than females in all age groups. The latencies of waves I, III and V increase 0.1-0.2 msec with increasing age, but the I-V IPL was the same in all age groups. The recognizability was very good for waves I, III and V and fairly good for waves II and IV. There was no interaural time difference.
