View Course Details Please note: exam questions are subject to change.


1.  Why is Oticon’s EEG research so groundbreaking?
  1. It shows which part of the brain is the auditory center
  2. It creates an image of how sounds are represented and processed by the brain
  3. EEGs are a new way to objectively measure brain activity
  4. It maps all the information centers in the brain
2.  Traditional hearing aid technology makes it impossible for the brain to organize all sounds and switch attention between speakers because it only focuses on:
  1. The speaker behind the listener
  2. The speaker in front of the listener
  3. Speakers in front and at a 45° angle
  4. Speakers at a 90° angle
3.  Downgrading input to the brain can have which of the following consequences?
  1. Increasing listening effort and cognitive load
  2. Better ability to focus attention
  3. No negative consequences have been proven
  4. Reduced cognitive load long-term
4.  Recent research suggests that the sound processing steps in the auditory cortex follow:
  1. Focus, then orient, then recognize
  2. Filter, then focus, then recognize
  3. Focus, then recognize
  4. Orient, then focus, then recognize
5.  When discussing benefits Oticon’s research has proven, an emphasis should be placed on which of the following?
  1. The details of the digital platform and DNN
  2. The real-life problems BrainHearing technologies address
  3. Using technical descriptions of the technology and research
  4. Explaining the names of Oticon BrainHearing technologies
