Békésy Audiometry

This study explored the effectiveness of modulated narrow-band noise as a masking source for sweep-frequency Bekesy audiometry. Five sophisticated normal-hearing subjects traced Bekesy audiometry thresholds for pulsed and continuous tone with no masking and under three conditions of contralateral masking: (1) white noise, (2) modulated narrow-band noise with a constant band-width of ±150 Hz, and (3) modulated narrow-band noise with a band-width of ±300 Hz. Results indicated that the continuous tone tracing obtained under the second condition separated from the pulsed tracing supportive of a Type II tracing. With the third condition, pulsed-continuous differences were somewhat smaller. Under the first condition, the difference between pulsed and continuous tracings was not apparent. When two unsophisticated subjects were tested with the modified band-width noise, results indicated extreme variation between pulsed and continuous tracings. We concluded that the masking effect of a constant band-width modulated narrow-band noise is about the same as that of white noise for a pulsed tone tracing. However, the use of a modulated narrow-band noise masking source may cause false Type II Bekesy audiograms due to the greater masking effect on a continuous tone threshold.

Listening Task

This study investigated the applicability, validity and reliability of narrow bands of white noise as test stimuli for obtaining audiograms under earphones with hard-to-test patients. The noise bands used were those produced by a commercially available narrow-band masking noise generator. The noise bands were calibrated re the 1964 ISO standard for pure tones with a group of normal hearers. Test results for a group of hearing-impaired children and for a group of mentally retarded children suggest that validity and reliability are better for noise-band audiometry than for pure-tone assessment in such subjects. The results with the mentally retarded group suggest that the task of attending to narrow-band noise stimuli is easier than the pure-tone listening task and is therefore applicable with a larger population of hard-to-test patients than is pure-tone audiometry. The noise-band procedure retains the advantages of pure tone audiometry in that it can be used as a means of monaural assessment of hearing sensitivity by frequency; and, like pure-tone audiometry, it tests functional hearing rather than peripheral sensitivity.
