Audiometric Configurations in Children Andrea Pittman, Ph.D. Arizona State University

Method Groups –6-year-old children –60-year-old adults Audiogram Selection Criteria –Right ear thresholds only –Thresholds for each octave test frequency ( Hz) –At least one threshold > 30 dB HL –Confirmed sensorinueral hearing loss by bone conduction audiometry –Air-bone gaps < 10 dB

Method Core Set of Audiograms –227 children –248 adults Analyses –Configuration –Asymmetry –Progression
