Behavioral Measures of Cochlear Gain Reduction Depend on Precursor Frequency, Bandwidth, and Level

Sensory systems adjust to the environment to maintain sensitivity to change. In the auditory system, the medial olivocochlear reflex (MOCR) is a known physiological mechanism capable of such adjustment. The MOCR provides efferent feedback between the brainstem and cochlea, reducing cochlear gain in...
