The sensitivity of the auditory system is regulated via two major efferent pathways: the
medial olivocochlear system that connects to the outer hair cells, and by the middle ear …

The medial olivocochlear reflex (MOCR) has been implicated in several auditory processes.
The putative role of the MOCR in improving speech perception in noise is particularly …

The peripheral auditory system is influenced by the medial olivocochlear (MOC) and middle
ear muscle (MEM) reflexes. When elicited by contralateral acoustic stimulation (CAS), these …

Objectives: The medial olivocochlear (MOC) efferent system can modify cochlear function to
improve sound detection in noise, but its role in speech perception in noise is unclear. The …

Children who have listening difficulties (LiD) despite having normal audiometry are often
diagnosed as having an auditory processing disorder. A lack of evidence regarding …

The auditory efferent system, especially the medial olivocochlear reflex (MOCR), is
implicated in both typical auditory processing and in auditory disorders in animal models …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to examine contralateral inhibition of transient
evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAEs) in young adults with normal hearing as a function …

This study describes a time series-based method of middle ear muscle reflex (MEMR)
detection using bilateral clicks. Although many methods can detect changes in the …

Objective: Assessments of the medial olivocochlear reflex (MOCR) may have clinical utility.
The MOCR is measured using contralateral inhibition of otoacoustic emissions but …

Objectives: The objective of the study was to quantify inter-subject variability in the
dependence of the medial-olivocochlear reflex (MOCR) on noise bandwidth. Of specific …
