Effects of external stimuli on spontaneous otoacoustic emissions.
The behavior of spontaneous otoacoustic emissions (SOAEs) is affected by external stimuli. A series of experiments was conducted with 25 normal-hearing subjects to explore multiple and bilateral SOAEs, frequency and amplitude drift of SOAEs, suppression functions and existence regions for distortion products generated by the interaction of SOAEs and external tones.
