To establish the reliability and validity of a computerized self-administered hearing test.
Cross-sectional within a comparative study of subjects.
Subjects were 100 Chinese adults who attended the audiology clinic in a hospital for a hearing test.
There was no significant difference in the thresholds of unmasked air-conduction hearing obtained with the computerized self-administered hearing test via a smartphone and those obtained with standard pure-tone audiometry. High test-retest reliability was observed with the self-administered hearing test (intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.95), and was comparable with that observed in standard pure-tone audiometry (intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.97). The thresholds of the self-administered hearing test measured in a sound-proof booth were not significantly different from those measured in a quiet office room.
The results suggest that the computerized self-administered hearing test is a reliable and valid measure of unmasked air-conduction hearing thresholds.
建立一种计算机化的自我管理听力测试的可靠性和有效性。
在一项比较研究中进行的横断面研究。
参加医院听力测试的 100 名中国成年人。
通过智能手机进行的计算机化自我管理听力测试和标准纯音测听获得的未掩蔽气导听力阈值无显著差异。自我管理听力测试具有较高的测试-再测试可靠性(组内相关系数=0.95),与标准纯音测听(组内相关系数=0.97)相当。在隔音 booth 中测量的自我管理听力测试的阈值与在安静的办公室房间中测量的阈值无显著差异。
结果表明,计算机化的自我管理听力测试是一种可靠和有效的未掩蔽气导听力阈值测量方法。
