Recent evidence suggests that DPOAE frequency influences the direction (suppression\/enhancement) of the reflex. In this study, DPOAEs were recorded at fine frequency intervals from 500 to 2500 Hz, with and without contralateral acoustic stimulation (CAS) in a group of 15 adults. The MOC reflex was calculated only at DPOAE frequencies corresponding to peaks in the fine structure. Additionally, inverse fast-Fourier transform was conducted to evaluate MOC effects on individual DPOAE components. Results show the following: (1) When considering peaks only, the mean MOC reflex was \u22122.05dB and 97% of observations reflected suppression, (2) CAS reduced distortion characteristic frequency component levels more than overlap component levels, and (3) CAS produced an upward shift in fine structure peak frequency. Results indicate that when the MOC reflex is recorded at DPOAE frequencies corresponding to fine structure maxima (i.e., when DPOAE components are constructive and in phase), suppression is reliably observed and level enhancement, which probably reflects component mixing in the ear canal rather than strength of the MOC reflex, is eliminated.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1121\/1.3068442","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,3,5]],"date-time":"2009-03-05T00:51:10Z","timestamp":1236214270000},"page":"1584-1594","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1063\/aip-crossmark-policy-page","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":70,"title":["Considering distortion product otoacoustic emission fine structure in measurements of the medial olivocochlear reflex"],"prefix":"10.1121","volume":"125","author":[{"given":"Carolina","family":"Abdala","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"House Ear Institute , 2100 West Third Street, Los Angeles, California 90057"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Srikanta K.","family":"Mishra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Southampton Institute of Sound and Vibration Research, , University Road, Southampton, S017 1BJ, United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tracy L.","family":"Williams","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"House Ear Institute , 2100 West Third Street, Los Angeles, California 90057"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"231","reference":[{"key":"2023080103472829100_c1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"2392","DOI":"10.1121\/1.426844","article-title":"Maturation of medial efferent system function in humans","volume":"105","year":"1999","journal-title":"J.
