A test of the sense of hearing. Audiometry is usually done in a special soundproof room with sensitive devices that record the intensity of tone heard by the one being tested.
Specific procedures by which the threshold of hearing is measured.
A set out and followed procedure to gauge hearing strength. Usually known as a hearing test.
A method of determining and quantifying the ability to hear a variety and range of pure tones. Hearing is described as a function of the number or cycles per second (CPS or hertz) that can be detected at a particular intensity (decibels).
The process of measuring hearing ability or acuity.
Any kind of testing that involves hearing.
Audiometry is any testing that checks hearing.
Audiometry is the testing of hearing ability. Typically, audiometric tests determine a subject's hearing levels with the help of an audiometer, but may also measure ability to discriminate between different sound intensities, recognize pitch, or distinguish speech from background noise. Acoustic reflex and otoacoustic emissions may also be measured.
