A comparison of an audiometric screening survey with an in-depth research questionnaire for hearing loss and hearing loss risk factors.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Current hearing aid prescription rules assume that spectral loudness summation decreases with hearing impairment and that binaural loudness summation is independent of hearing loss and signal bandwidth. Previous studies have shown that these assumptions might be incorrect. Spectral loudness summation was meas...
