Parents' preferences for services for children with hearing loss: a conjoint analysis study.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:Cochlear reflectance (CR) is the cochlear contribution to ear-canal reflectance. CR is a type of otoacoustic emission (OAE) that is calculated as a transfer function between forward pressure and reflected pressure. The purpose of this study was to compare wideband CR to distortion-product (DP) OAEs in two wa...
