This test is conducted as a listening game that is played in a sound-treated room to find out whether your child can hear soft sounds at all of the important levels for hearing spoken words clearly.

• Visual Reinforcement Audiometry observes head-turning responses to sounds, rewarding the responses with a lighted toy.

• Play Audiometry shows your child how to respond to sounds with a play task such as placing a block in a bucket after hearing the sound.

Older children can respond to sounds during the test by raising a hand or pushing a button, and by repeating words.
