Should the audiometric database analysis method (draft ANSI S12.13-1991) for evaluating the effectiveness of hearing conservation programs be accepted as a US national standard?.

abstract：:As humans, we hear the way we do because of at least three major forces. The first is phylogeny, the evolutionary changes in the auditory system since its beginnings. The second is embryology, the formation of the system in each individual. Finally, there is the interaction between the biologically determined mechanis...
