The challenge
In noisy situations, hearing clearly can be a challenge. Why not do a simple, 5-step test in the privacy and comfort of your own home? This simple test measures how well your ears perform in the battle between speech and background noise.
The test
This test simulates a party situation. Your task is to focus on the speech sounds, while trying to ignore background noise. Your reactions will indicate whether you are beginning to experience the clarity loss that so many people encounter as they get older.
During the exercise the levels of background noise vary to determine how much noise you can handle before losing your focus on the speech.
The outcome
Performance is measured on a scale of 0-100%. Of course, the higher your score is, the better you are at understanding speech in noise. A score below 64% would indicate that your ability has deteriorated and you should consider having your hearing tested.
The benefit
The sooner you detect a clarity issue, the better your chances are of keeping your hearing in good shape. You don’t think twice about getting your eyes checked - and the same should apply to your ears. Because you depend on both senses to enjoy an active and fulfilling lifestyle.
This test is a hearing screening test and is only to be used as an indication of your hearing. For a more accurate measurement of your hearing abilities, please contact your local Hearing Care Professional.
