Objectives and Contents

Objectives: The aim of this course is to provide students with comprehensive knowledge of the test methods used in hearing measurement, particularly pure-tone audiometry, speech audiometry, and behavioral test methods.
Content: In this course, an introduction to audiometry is provided, and the hearing system and the physical properties of sound are examined. The audiometer and test environment are introduced, and audiometric evaluation methods are taught through practical applications. Types and degrees of hearing loss and audiogram configurations are analyzed. Tuning fork tests, air- and bone-conduction assessments, and speech audiometry are carried out through practical studies. The relationship between air-conduction thresholds and speech tests is explained, and clinical interpretation is performed using sample audiograms.
