Audiqueen’s Sound Delivery Module plays sounds to assess hearing in several tests, such as the phoneme discrimination test. You can use the phoneme discrimination engine to develop your own sound discrimination test using your own test sounds.

This engine runs an odd-ball paradigm. It will present two sounds. A sequence of frequent background sounds is occasionally interrupted by a rare, unexpected stimulus sound. The test subject must respond to the stimulus (the “odd” sound). The audiologist then check whether the responses are correct and consistent in order to determine whether the test subject perceives the two sounds as different.

Here we explain how you can create your own sound detection test using sounds of your choice. For this, you need administrator rights. You can publish this test to share it with colleagues in other centres.

Use the Administrator Tools and find the Extension Manager to create your own test.

Alternatively you can also click this button to create your own sound detection test.

Click on Add and then Detection to start creating a new sound detection test.

Now have a look at this instructional video:

Publish

Once you’re ready, you can publish the test. It will then become an auqx file that others can download and install. As they are not the author, they cannot edit the test.
