SFOAE fine structure shows individual maxima-minima dips up to 30 dB
Evidence
Stimulus frequency OAEs (SFOAEs), which are evoked using a single frequency sound, are one of the most diagnostic OAEs regarding cochlear function. They show a highly replicable individualistic pattern of amplitude maxima and minima when measured with high enough frequency resolution, a pattern called SFOAE fine structure. The level difference between maxima and minima can be as large as 30 dB. Usually SOAEs occur near the maxima of SFOAEs fine structure (Bergevin et al. 2012 ; Dewey and Dhar 2014 ). — Dijk, Pim van, Physiology, Psychoacoustics and…, 5757
