I’ve always wondered how accurate hearing tests are because I just press the button at regular intervals matching the timing of the first (loudest) beeps. If I keep doing this, how accurate is it? I don’t think the beeps are truly random. The timing seems regular enough for me to keep guessing, eg: A A A A A A A A
The audiologist always says just try your best. I have layers and layers of tinnitus - high, low, mid - and I have no idea whether there is a testing beep or whether its the tinnitus. I always hear beeps and other noises. Do audiologists take into account the client perception of pattern/timing with their button pressing?
Does anyone know how random the beeps are?
