    • To discuss its relationship with speech discrimination in different ear conditions.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of existing literature on the aural-overload test.
    • Discussion of the psychophysical methodology involved in the test.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Analysis of clinical case studies and data.
  • Main Results:

    • The aural-overload test effectively delineates individuals susceptible to acoustic trauma.
    • It is valuable for evaluating auditory damage post-acoustic exposure.
    • The test aids in site-of-lesion testing and assessing loudness recruitment.

    Conclusions:

    • The aural-overload test is a versatile tool in audiological practice.
    • Its applications extend to predicting trauma risk and diagnosing auditory pathologies.
    • Further understanding of its correlation with speech perception can enhance clinical decision-making.
