Improving Ear Protection
| Challenge: | Discovery | | Category: | Intermediate | | Region: | Halifax | | City: | Halifax, NS | | School: | Fountain Academy of the Sacred Heart | | Abstract: | A computer run test was used to prove that there is not a direct relationship between the amount of ear protection used, and sound localization capabilities (it matters where the protection is positioned). Response times for front/back sound localization were shown to be greater than response times for left/right sound localization. Subjects were shown to have low front/back sound localization capabilities with standard ear protection. |
