Using Gap-Induced Inhibition of the Post-Auricular Muscle Response as an Objective Measure of Tinnitus in Humans (2020)
Journal Article
Wilson, C. A., Berger, J. I., De Boer, J., Sereda, M., Hall, D. A., & Wallace, M. N. (2020). Using Gap-Induced Inhibition of the Post-Auricular Muscle Response as an Objective Measure of Tinnitus in Humans. Acta Scientific Otolaryngology, 2(12), 40-52

A widely used method for detecting tinnitus in rodents is the gap pre-pulse inhibition of the acoustic startle (GPIAS). One variant uses the Preyer reflex to assess the startle response and a component of this can be measured as a small muscle pote...
