Scope of Phonetics and Audiology journal

An audiometer is a machine used for evaluating hearing acuity. They usually consist of an embedded hardware unit connected to a pair of headphones and a test subject feedback button, sometimes controlled by a standard PC. Such systems can also be used with bone vibrators, to test conductive hearing mechanisms.

Audiometers are standard equipment at ENT (ear, nose, throat) clinics and in audiology centers. An alternative to hardware audiometers are software audiometers, which are available in many different configurations. Screening PC-based audiometers use a standard computer. Clinical PC-based audiometers are generally more expensive than software audiometers, but are much more accurate and efficient. They are most commonly used in hospitals, audiology centers and research communities. These audiometers are also used to conduct industrial audiometric testing. Some audiometers even provide a software developer's kit that provides researchers with the capability to create their own diagnostic tests.

Phonetics & Audiology deals with hearing dysfunction, balance dysfunction, impairment in hearing, causes of delayed language development and its management in children and adults. It also deals with genetic and environmental factors responsible for hearing dysfunction and language development in individuals.

 

Journal of Phonetics & Audiology focuses on research of hearing dysfunction and perception, dysfunction of balance, evaluation of delayed language development and its management. Articles on otoacoustic emission measurement, videonystamography, audiometric tests, Tympanometry, Speech audiometry, Auditory reflex testing, Cortical evoked response audiometry, Caloric test, ENG chair test, posturography, dichotic listening, hearing implants, cochlear implants are welcome.
