Correlation between schroeder-phase effect and electrocochleography findings

Introduction: In Schroeder-phase masking test, different auditory perception ability towards different phases of Schroeder masker is known as ‘phase effect’. Previously, the phase effect mechanism was proposed to be dominantly contributed by peripheral auditory function,mainly by outer hair cells. T...

Methods: Four normal hearing and four sensorineural hearing loss subjects were recruited. Schroeder-phase masking test was conducted at 500 Hz, 1 kHz, and 2 kHz (75 dB A), and phase effect was recorded. Electrocochleography (ECochG) test via tip-trode recording using 90 dBnHL tone burst at 500 Hz, 1 kHz, and 2 kHz was also conducted on the same subjects.

Pearson and Spearman analysis were performed to find correlation between phase effect and individual ECochG components’ amplitude.

A significant strong correlation (p: 0.02;r: 0.81) between phase effect and action potential’s amplitude at 2 kHz was observed.
