چکیده

Development of techniques for measurement of aural acoustic immittance (AAI) is reviewed . Measurement characteristics of selected AAI instruments are compared. Real-ear data obtained with a digital instrument are presented. Review of data support the suggestion that digital AAI instruments promote development of quantitative measurement protocols with greater efficiency and power.

Passive Admittance Matrix Modeling for Guitar Synthesis

In physics-based sound synthesis, it is generally possible to incorporate a mechanical or acoustical immittance (admittance or impedance) in the form of a digital filter. Examples include modeling of the termination of a string or a tube. However, when digital filters are fitted to measured immittance data, care has to be taken that the resulting filter corresponds to a passive mechanical or ac...

The development of a graphical emotion measurement instrument using caricatured expressions: the LEMtool

This paper outlines the early stages of development of a visual measurement instrument specifically designed to measure emotions in digital media, with the focal point being websites. For this reason, eight emotion terms most relevant to digital media were selected and visualized by an expressive cartoon figure using theories of facial caricaturing. Preliminary results of the validation study w...

Parotid Gland Carcinoma Masquerading as an Aural Polyp

Introduction Parotid gland squamous cell carcinoma is an uncommon aggressive neoplasm with poor prognosis. Aural polyps are usually the presenting features of chronic suppurative otitis media, tuberculous otitis media, and adenoma or carcinoma. The malignant aural polyp is very rare. Parotid gland carcinoma masquerading as an aural polyp has rarely been described in the literature. ...

Development and Validation of the Preliminary Version of Brief Inpatient Satisfaction Scale (BISS)

Background and Objectives: Questionnaire-based survey is the most common way of assessing patient satisfaction. However, most relevant survey instruments have been developed in western countries, and valid and reliable context-specific survey tools in this area are lacking. To help filling this gap, in this study we have developed and validated the preliminary version of the novel Brief Inpatie...
