| Abstract | Short-term habituation of the vertex auditory evoked response was studied in six infants (age 10 to 14 weeks). The infants were presented trains of four synthetic speech stimuli. The average amplitude of the evoked responses was largest to the first member of the stimulus train and then decrease rapidly. The average amplitudes to the second, third, and fourth stimuli in the train were 36, 41, and 222% of the first stimulus amplitude, respectively. The results suggest that the auditory evoked response of awake infants satisfies several of the criteria for short-term habituation. |
