Analog and zero phase-shift digital filtering of the auditory brain stem response waveform.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:The purpose of the current study was to examine how age-related hearing impairment affects lipreading and auditory-visual integration. The working hypothesis for the investigation was that presbycusic hearing loss would increase reliance on visual speech information, resulting in better lipreading and auditor...
