Cochlear versus retrocochlear presbyacusis: clinical correlates.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:Lexical tone information provides redundant cues for the recognition of Mandarin sentences in listeners with normal hearing in quiet conditions. The contribution of lexical tones to Mandarin sentence recognition in listeners with hearing aids (HAs) is unclear. This study aimed to remove lexical tone informat...
