Outcome measures
Primary outcome
De primary study parameters of this study are the detection thresholds of the
ASSR-test and the relation between the modulation depth of the stimulus and the
amplitude of the response. Beside, the outcome will be compared with a
psychophysic amplitude modulation test.
De belangrijkste uitkomsten van deze studie zijn de detectiedrempels van de
ASSR-test en de relatie tussen de modulatiediepte van de stimulus en de
amplitude van de respons. Daarnaast zullen de uitkomsten worden vergeleken met
een psychofysische amplitude-modulatietest.

Background summary
Good hearing and understanding is very important in normal daily life. A good
auditory processing is important to make optimal use of it. Auditory processing
disorders can with current diagnostic tests only be tested psychophysically. In
these tests the co-operation of the patients is needed. For some purposes a
test is needed where the co-operation of patients isn't required. This study
investigates a measuring method in which active co-operation of the patient
isn't required to describe the temporal processing of sounds. This will be
done with use of electrophysiological measured responses, the auditory steady
state response (ASSR).
Study objective
The development of an electrophysiological measuring method to describe the
temporal processing of the hearing system, using the auditory steady state
response.
Study design
The research design is a pilot-study.
Study burden and risks
There ar no corporal risks associated with participation. Performing all tests
take maximal two hours per person.
