Abstract
An experiment was conducted to examine the effects of noise burst rise time and level on the human BAER. Noise burst levels included 15, 30, 45 and 60 dB nHL, with linear rise times of 0, 0.5, 1.25 and 2.5 ms. With increasing noise burst level, there is a decrease in wave V latency and an increase in peak amplitude. With increasing noise burst rise time, there is an increase in wave V latency and a decrease in wave V amplitude. The slope of the latency/intensity function increases with increasing rise time. The slope of the latency/rise time function increases with decreasing noise burst level. The change in wave V latency associated with changing rise time is less than the change in rise time for all experimental conditions.
