Abstract
A nonindustrial noise exposed population (NINEP) that describes the age effects for a black male and female population has been established. The mean hearing threshold levels for the black NINEP are significantly lower (better hearing) than the previously established mean HTLs for a white NINEP when compared by sex. The availability of the black NINEP now makes it possible to more accurately evaluate a typical industrial noise exposed population (INEP).Mesh:
