AUDIOLOGY PRAXIS PRACTICE 1 EXAM
WITH CORRECT ACTUAL QUESTIONS AND
CORRECTLY WELL DEFINED ANSWERS
LATEST ALREADY GRADED A+ 2025 – 2026
The accuracy of a hearing screening test in correctly
identifying those individuals who actually have a hearing
disorder is referred to as the screening test's... - ANSWERS-
Sensitivity
What is true of the American National Standard for
Specification of Hearing Aid Characteristics, ANSI S3.22? -
ANSWERS-It describes measurement techniques and
procedures for measuring electroacoustic characteristics of
hearing aids
An adult client has normal hearing through 1000 Hz with a
steeply sloping, moderate to severe sensorineural hearing
loss in the higher frequencies. What is the most appropriate
hearing aid fitting? - ANSWERS-Moderate gain BTE hearing
,aid with an effective low frequency tone control and a
variable vent
PE tubes are placed in children's ears for what purpose? -
ANSWERS-To take over the functions of a blocked
Eustachian tube
What is the best choice of amplification for a person with
bilateral moderate conductive hearing loss and chronic
drainage from both ears? - ANSWERS-A bone conduction
hearing aid
What is true about a caloric response yielding a left
unilateral weakness in the interpretation of
electronystagmography results? - ANSWERS-It suggests a
left peripheral vestibular disorder of either the labyrinthine
or the VIIIth nerve
What test would yield information of greatest importance in
the audiologic evaluation of an adult with an average
unmasked air conduction threshold of 75 dB in one ear and
normal sensitivity in the other? - ANSWERS-The Stenger Test
,An advantage of many digitally programmable analog
hearing aids over other hearing aids is the potential for... -
ANSWERS-programming more than one frequency response
and storing them into memory for later retrieval by the
client
For live-voice presentations of the Word Intelligibility by
Picture Identification (WIPI), a 4-year-old child with severe
bilateral hearing loss obtains a score of 32 percent on the
right ear and 40 percent on the left ear. On the basis of
these findings, the audiologist should logically conclude
that... - ANSWERS-scores may reflect, in part, a delay in the
child's language development
Which of the following would be more likely to ensure that
the proper ratio of clients to clinicians in an audiology clinic
- ANSWERS-Accumulating data regarding numbers of clients,
complexity of clients' service needs, and contact hours over
an extended period of time
The observation of a prolonged interval between waves I
and V would be consistent with which of the following? -
ANSWERS-Retrocochlear pathology, such as an acoustic
neuroma
, A common strategy for selecting hearing-aid gain involves
the "half-gain" rule. This rule specifies hat gain should be
equal to one half of the... - ANSWERS-hearing loss in dB HL
What is the conductive component if the AC is 50 dB and
the BC is 30 dB? - ANSWERS-20 dB
If the AC thresholds are: 25, 35, 50, 65, 65, and 70 dB, what
is the estimated SRT? - ANSWERS-50 dB
What is an accurate statement concerning measures of
speech reading ability? - ANSWERS-The most realistic
measures of speechreading are administered in a combined
visual-auditory mode
In the adult rehabilitation process, part of the strategy
includes listening training, which means that the adult is
trained to... - ANSWERS-be alert, attentive, and set to
receive communication
A six-month-old infant has recently been identified as
having a severe bilateral sensorineural hearing impairment
of unknown etiology. The parents should be referred for
what as a matter of routine? - ANSWERS-Genetic evaluation
