Play Audiometry

Play Audiometry or Conditioned Play Audiometry is a type of pure tone hearing test. It allows an audiologist to test the hearing of children who are aged around 3-7 years old developmentally. The child is conditioned to respond in play-oriented activities when a tone is heard. For example, the audiologist will condition a child to drop a toy into a bucket or drop a marble in marble track when the child hears a tone. This test will identify the degree, type, and configuration of hearing loss of a child.
