2026 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
GUARANTEED TO PASS
◉ A significant variation in a person's hearing sensitivity from one
ear to the other. Answer: asymmetrical hearing loss
◉ Graphic depiction of a person's hearing sensitivity. Answer:
audiogram
◉ The decibel level that is denoted as a solid black line on the
audiogram and corresponds to 0 dB HL; this represents average
normal hearing. However, 0 dB HL may not be the lowest level that a
person with superior hearing can detect.. Answer: Audiometric zero
◉ Hearing loss caused by abnormality in the external or middle ear
characterized by the reduction in the conduction of sound into the
ear. Answer: Conductive hearing loss
◉ A common hearing loss pattern configuration that depicts the
most impaired thresholds in the mid-frequency range, with recovery
noted in both the lower and higher frequencies. Answer: Cookie Bite
shape
, ◉ unit of measurement for intensity of human hearing. Answer:
decibel
◉ The number of cycles of vibration per second. Answer: frequency
◉ The unit of measurement for frequency. Answer: hertz
◉ A conductive hearing loss is characterized by. Answer: abnormal
air conduction and normal bone conduction
◉ A sensorineural hearing loss is characterized by. Answer:
abnormal air conduction and equally abnormal bone conduction,
inner ear damage (cochlea included)
◉ A mixed hearing loss is characterized by. Answer: abnormal air
and bone conduction responses, with an air-bone gap
◉ Abnormal air conduction with better hearing by bone conduction
is. Answer: mixed hearing loss
◉ When there is no response to a particular sound stimulus in a
particular condition, the corresponding symbol is marked on the
audiogram with a downward arrow attached to it. TRUE or FALSE.
Answer: TRUE
