\u003ci\u003eAudiology Workbook, Fourth Edition\u003c/i\u003e is a companion study aid to the textbook, \u003ci\u003eAudiology: Science to Practice, Fourth Edition\u003c/i\u003e. It can also serve as an appropriate supplement to other introductory audiology textbooks or class lectures. The \u003ci\u003eAudiology Workbook\u003c/i\u003e focuses on exercises and questions in hearing and vestibular science and audiology clinical principles and procedures that are beneficial for students in an undergraduate communication science and disorders program and those in a graduate-level AuD program. It is also a great study resource for the Audiology Praxis Exam.\u003cp\u003eThe fourth edition is composed of an abundance of questions and activities designed to reinforce students\u0026rsquo; knowledge of concepts and procedures that are, traditionally, difficult to master. There are questions and activities on 1) properties of sound, such as drawing waveforms; calculating frequencies/periods, amplitudes, and phases, 2) anatomy and physiology of the auditory and vestibular systems, including diagrams to label, 3) procedures for obtaining pure-tone thresholds and interpreting/describing audiograms, 4) masking for pure-tone and speech tests, 5) performing and interpreting speech test, tympanograms, wideband acoustic immittance, and acoustic reflexes, 6) understanding and interpreting evoked physiologic responses, including OAEs, ABRs, and VEMP, 7) clinical case studies for common hearing and balance disorders, and 8) treatment, including hearing aids, implantable devices, cerumen management, tinnitus, and aural (re)habilitation.\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe exercises are comprehensive and designed so they may be solved with relatively short answers and useful for group discussion. The popular exercises from previous editions have been retained, updated, and expanded, including those on audiogram interpretation, masking, immittance, and case studies. Comprehensive answers are also included for each chapter.\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNew to the Fourth Edition\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eExpanded exercises on the scientific foundations from the previous edition as well as new questions added on wavelength, resonance, decibels, signal-to-noise ratio, complex vibrations, stages of transduction through the auditory system, and psychoacoustics.\u003c/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eMany new and revised figures of auditory and vestibular anatomy.\u003c/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eNew exercises related to clinical topics, including preparation for patient testing, case history, wideband acoustic immittance and evoked physiologic responses.\u003c/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eNew chapter with exercises on hearing aids, assistive listening technologies (HATS), and implantable devices.\u003c/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eEach chapter now ends with a set of multiple-choice questions.\u0026nbsp;\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003c/ul\u003e
