Noise and the brain: experience dependent developmental and adult plasticity

By: Contributor(s): Publication details: Academic Press, 2014 Amsterdam: Description: xvii; 374p. hb; 24 cmISBN:
  • 9780124159945
Subject(s): DDC classification:
  • 612.85 EGG
Summary: In our industrialized world, we are surrounded by occupational, recreational, and environmental noise. Very loud noise damages the inner-ear receptors and results in hearing loss, subsequent problems with communication in the presence of background noise, and, potentially, social isolation. There is much less public knowledge about the noise exposure that produces only temporary hearing loss but that in the long term results in hearing problems due to the damage of high-threshold auditory nerve fibers. Early exposures of this kind, such as in neonatal intensive care units, manifest themselves.
