To study the effect of age on prediction of hearing level from the acoustic reflex, we compared reflex prediction with the actual hearing level in 505 patients. The following three age groups were defined: 130 children aged 2 to 12 years; 158 young adults aged 20 to 40 years; and 217 old adults aged 60 to 90 years. Prediction was substantially more accurate in the children's group than in either adult group.
为研究年龄对通过听反射预测听力水平的影响，我们比较了505例患者的反射预测结果与实际听力水平。定义了以下三个年龄组：130名2至12岁的儿童；158名20至40岁的年轻人；以及217名60至90岁的老年人。儿童组的预测准确性明显高于两个成人组中的任何一组。
