Deaf By Music: Noise Induced Hearing Loss
| Division: | Life Sciences / None | | Category: | Intermediate | | Region: | Vancouver Island | | City: | Victoria, BC | | School: | St Margaret's | | Abstract: | This project explores the relationship between noise-induced hearing loss and music played on a portable media player. Two experiments were conducted: first, to determine which of seven sites had the highest noise levels and, second, which of two earbud types blocked out background noise to a greater degree. Results determined that noise-reduction earbuds blocked out noise to a greater degree than stock iPod© earbuds. |
