It is possible, even with children and new-born babies, to condition the oculo-palpebral reflex to respond to sound. The apparatus constructed by Messrs. Gasquet and Brun achieves this conditioning on the one hand and, on the other, allows this to be used as a method of visual audiometry. This method generally enables the operator to come within twenty decibels or so of the real threshold compared with the unconditioned cochleo-palpebral reflex threshold. The use of a polygraphic recording technique for palpebral response adds precision to the results of this method, particularly by the demonstration of a phenomenon of anticipation which appears when the conditioning has been achieved. Audiometry by means of conditioning therefore represents an objective technique for detecting deafness in new-born babies.
即使对于儿童和新生儿，也可以对眼睑反射进行条件训练，使其对声音做出反应。加斯凯先生和布伦先生制造的仪器一方面实现了这种条件训练，另一方面还能将其用作一种视觉听力测定法。与未条件化的耳蜗眼睑反射阈值相比，这种方法通常能让操作人员得出的结果与实际阈值相差约20分贝左右。采用多导记录技术来记录眼睑反应，可提高这种方法结果的准确性，尤其是通过证明在实现条件训练时出现的预期现象。因此，通过条件训练进行听力测定是一种检测新生儿耳聋的客观技术。
