The method relies on the assumptions that in the absence of compression, forward-masking recovery is independent of masker level and probe frequency. The present study aimed at testing the validity of these assumptions. Masking recovery was investigated for eight listeners with sensorineural hearing loss carefully selected to have absent or nearly absent distortion product otoacoustic emissions. It is assumed that for these listeners basilar membrane responses are linear, hence that masking recovery is independent of basilar membrane compression. TMCs for probe frequencies of 0.5, 1, 2, 4, and 6\u2009kHz were available for these listeners from a previous study. The dataset included TMCs for masker frequencies equal to the probe frequencies plus reference TMCs measured using a high-frequency probe and a low, off-frequency masker. All of the TMCs were fitted using linear regression, and the resulting slope and intercept values were taken as indicative of masking recovery and masker level, respectively. Results for on-frequency TMCs suggest that forward-masking recovery is generally independent of probe frequency and of masker level and hence that it would be reasonable to use a reference TMC for a high-frequency probe to infer cochlear compression at lower frequencies. Results further show, however, that reference TMCs were sometimes shallower than corresponding on-frequency TMCs for identical probe frequencies, hence that compression could be overestimated in these cases. We discuss possible reasons for this result and the conditions when it might occur.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/2331216514564253","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,12,22]],"date-time":"2014-12-22T21:52:22Z","timestamp":1419285142000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Forward-Masking Recovery and the Assumptions of the Temporal Masking Curve Method of Inferring Cochlear Compression"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"18","author":[{"given":"Patricia","family":"P\u00e9rez-Gonz\u00e1lez","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Neurociencias de Castilla y Le\u00f3n, Universidad de Salamanca, Salamanca, Spain"},{"name":"Grupo de Audiolog\u00eda, Instituto de Investigaci\u00f3n Biom\u00e9dica de Salamanca, Salamanca, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Peter T.","family":"Johannesen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Neurociencias de Castilla y Le\u00f3n, Universidad de Salamanca, Salamanca, Spain"},{"name":"Grupo de Audiolog\u00eda, Instituto de Investigaci\u00f3n Biom\u00e9dica de Salamanca, Salamanca, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Enrique A.","family":"Lopez-Poveda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Neurociencias de Castilla y Le\u00f3n, Universidad de Salamanca, Salamanca, Spain"},{"name":"Grupo de Audiolog\u00eda, Instituto de Investigaci\u00f3n Biom\u00e9dica de Salamanca, Salamanca, Spain"},{"name":"Departamento de Cirug\u00eda, Facultad de Medicina, Universidad de Salamanca, Salamanca, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2014,12,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-2331216514564253","volume-title":"S3.6 Specification for audiometers","author":"American National Standards Institute","year":"1996"},{"key":"bibr2-2331216514564253","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/0-387-21530-1_4"},{"key":"bibr3-2331216514564253","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Chen, F., Zha, D., Fridberger, A., Zheng, J., Choudhury, N., Jacques, S.
