The results were as follows: 1. Changes in peak latencies and interpeak latencies (IPL) as a function of intensity were observed at normal hearing threshold (nHL) intensity standards. 2. With increases in intensity above sensation threshold (SL), wave I decreased in latency faster than wave V. This difference resulted in changes in the I-V interpeak latency (IPL) as a function of intensity. 3. A "transition zone" of wave I was not observed. These results suggest that the exclusive use of normal hearing threshold (nHL) intensity standards might result in false-negative auditory brainstem response (ABR) diagnosis in persons with severe and profound mental retardation whose acoustical hearing threshold had not been determined. In such cases, the use of an intensity level based on the auditory brainstem response (ABR) threshold, rather than on normal hearing threshold intensity standards, would be more adequate., 金沢大学人間社会研究域学校教育系}, pages = {1--8}, title = {聴性脳幹反応(ABR)波間潜時に及ぼす刺激強度の効果 : 重度障害児のABR評価法との関連を中心に}, volume = {26}, year = {1988} }
