2. Pure-tone audiometry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pure-tone_audiometry

   Pure-tone audiometry is the main hearing test used to identify hearing threshold levels of an individual, enabling determination of the degree, type and configuration of a hearing loss [1] [2] and thus providing a basis for diagnosis and management.

3. Hearing test - Wikipedia

   The standard and most common type of hearing test is pure tone audiometry, which measures the air and bone conduction thresholds for each ear in a set of 8 standard frequencies from 250Hz to 8000Hz. The test is conducted in a sound booth using either a pair of foam inserts or supraural headphones connected to an external audiometer.

5. Stenger test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stenger_test

   An individual with true hearing loss should continue to hear the sound on the better hearing side. Alternatively, this test can be performed more accurately using a two-channel audiometer using pure tone signals. [3] In this procedure, a tone is presented to the "good ear" at 10 to 20 dB SL (above the threshold level).

6. Audiometry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audiometry

   A pure tone audiometry hearing test is the gold standard for evaluation of hearing loss or disability. [medical citation needed] Other types of hearing tests also generate graphs or tables of results that may be loosely called 'audiograms', but the term is universally used to refer to the result of a pure tone audiometry hearing test.

7. Audiogram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audiogram

   Hearing thresholds of humans and other mammals can be found with behavioural hearing tests or physiological tests used in audiometry. For adults, a behavioural hearing test involves a tester who presents tones at specific frequencies and intensities . When the testee hears the sound he or she responds (e.g., by raising a hand or pressing a button.
