Abstract

Age-dependent hearing loss has been well documented in gerbils exceeding 2 years of age using physiological methods (e.g. [Mills et al. (1990) Hear. Res. 46, 201-210]). We determined behavioral thresholds for broad-band noise and pure-tone pulses in gerbils as a function of age. Contrary to expectations based on previously published physiological data, we found no significant (broad-band noise ...
