Abstract
This study investigated the effects of click polarity on threshold detectability (threshold level in dB SL) of the auditory brain stem response (ABR). ABRs were obtained from 10 normally hearing adult subjects in response to rarefaction and condensation clicks presented from 0 to 10 dB SL in 2 dB steps. An objective response signal-to-noise estimator, known as Fsp, was the dependent variable. ABR detectability functions (Fsp by dB SL) were not significantly influenced by click polarity. Conclusions can only be drawn for normally hearing adults. For this population, click polarity does not affect threshold detection with the ABR.
