There are many factors that can attribute to causing sensory loss. The main one is ageing as age brings about hearing and sight deterioration because as we get older our senses start to diminish and gradually increases as time goes by‚ this tends to generally affect individuals at around the age of 40/50 . We can also identify that accidents ‚ illnesses can also attribute to loss ‚ such as a pregnant individual may have picked up and infection such as rubella or used drugs and alcohol in excess

Deaf vs. Hard of Hearing Deaf refers to a child that failed to hear a sound or a loss of hearing sense. National Deaf Counsel Society(2017) contended‚ “Hearing loss can range from mild to profound and has many different causes‚ including injury‚ disease‚ genetic defects and the ageing process.” Deaf people have difficulty in process language and speech because they could not hear themselves. However‚ the strategies that most teachers are used for communication or to check their understanding is using

deafness This is when sound cannot pass efficiently through the outer and middle ear to the cochlea and auditory nerve. The most common type of conductive deafness in children is caused by ‘glue ear’. Glue ear (or otitis media) affects about one in five children at any time. Sensori-neural (or nerve) deafness This is when there is a fault in the inner ear (most often because the hair cells in the cochlea are not working properly) or in the auditory (hearing) nerve. Sensori-neural deafness is permanent

(Singleton & Tittle‚ 2000). Although there has been some concern regarding signs of spoken language delay observed in hearing children of non-hearing parents‚ there is not much evidence to support this claim. Therefore‚ deliberately removing Jimmy’s cochleas was unnecessary since he did not need to be deaf to belong to the Deaf community. Many deaf parents‚ occasionally have the misguided notion that they should not sign with their child simply because the child is hearing. Signing with the hearing child

Nairne explained how to understand why our sensory systems work the way they do‚ “we must consider how the brain solves three fundamental problems that cut across all the sensory systems. Regardless of whether we’re dealing with vision‚ hearing‚ touch‚ smell‚ or taste‚ the brain needs to figure out the way to translate the incoming message‚ identifies the key components of the message‚ and produce a stable interpretation” (Nairne‚ 2014) According to Privatera’s article‚ there has been a growing body

Two of the most important sensory systems in human body are optical system and auditory system. Optical system or sometime called visual system involved in the process of taken amount of stimuli and transfer it into some figure that we can perceive as images that make senses. Auditory systems involved in sound wave that transduced by drum ear into some kind of vibration that eventually gets converted back into wave what we perceive as noise. There are a lot of similarities in their mechanisms of

The tectospinal tract connects the midbrain and the spinal cord. It is responsible for motor impulses that arise from one side of the midbrain to muscles on the opposite side of the body. The function of the tectospinal tract is to mediate reflex postural movements of the head in response to visual and auditory stimuli. Damage signs would show prevention in being able to coordinate the head‚ neck‚ and eye movements. Sensory receptors perform countless functions in our bodies including mediating vision

Audiometric screenings are general assessments of hearing loss and can be performed in any clinical setting. Hearing tests may initially reveal a sensory pattern and later show the typical conductive loss pattern. Diagnosis is made by looking at family history‚ conducting hearing tests‚ and ruling out any other alternative disorders. Batson and Rizzolo (2017)‚ found that the Hearing Handicap Inventory for the Elderly Screening Version‚ a commonly used questionnaire that quantifies hearing handicap
