With the increasing popularity of hearing aids with wide dynamic range compression, where the goal may be to restore normal perception of loudness, there has been renewed interest in obtaining individual loudness judgments in a clinically feasible, reliable manner as part of the hearing aid evaluation. The purpose of the current investigation was to evaluate the test-retest reliability of the Contour Test of Loudness Perception. Twenty-seven adults with hearing loss participated in the experiment. They produced loudness judgments on two separate occasions. Results as assessed by the intraclass correlation statistic revealed that the Contour Test has adequate consistency and absolute agreement across frequency and loudness categories over two test sessions separated in time. Results are discussed in relation to previous reliability findings from other loudness judgment methods and other subject populations.
随着具有宽动态范围压缩功能的助听器越来越普及，其目标可能是恢复正常的响度感知，作为助听器评估的一部分，以临床可行、可靠的方式获得个体响度判断重新引起了人们的兴趣。本次调查的目的是评估响度感知轮廓测试的重测信度。27名听力损失成人参与了该实验。他们在两个不同的时间进行了响度判断。通过组内相关统计评估的结果表明，在时间上分开的两个测试阶段中，轮廓测试在频率和响度类别上具有足够的一致性和绝对一致性。结果结合其他响度判断方法和其他受试者群体的先前信度研究结果进行了讨论。
