METHOD FOR PERMITTING HEARING CAPACITY SELF-ASSESSMENT AND HEARING TEST KIT THEREOF

摘要

The invention relates to a method for enabling a person to self-assess his or her hearing ability, said method comprising, in addition to carrying out the auditory test, a step of measuring the ambient sound level of the medium in which the person is at using a device for measuring the sound pressure level, and recording in real time the sound level measured in a memory module of a computer equipment to which the measuring device is connected, and a level characterization step ambient sound recorded on a sound level scale, said scale being established from prerecorded sound level ranges, each range defining degrees of acceptability of the sound level for performing a hearing test, one of the ranges comprising a threshold sound level permissible beyond which the sound level is considered unacceptable to perform a hearing test. The invention also relates to an auditory test kit for implementing the method.
