ABSTRACT:
A system and method for obtaining hearing ability related data from a subject outputs tones or sounds and monitors the subject's responses to the tones or sounds. An error condition is detected based on the responses, and corrective instructions are automatically delivered based on the error condition detected. The hearing evaluation is resumed by outputting tones or sounds, and the steps of outputting, monitoring, detecting, automatically delivering and resuming are iterated until evaluation of the subject's hearing has been completed.
