About Signia Hearing Test
The Hearing Test was created by our audiology experts to help you determine whether you have hearing impairment. This revolutionary application has been scientifically developed and carefully tested to ensure the most precise results possible, with an accuracy rate of 96%. In addition, the test is completely independent of language, so you can use it reliably no matter what language you’re most comfortable with.
How the test works
The Hearing Test examines how well you can detect words in background noise. This is based on the knowledge that individuals with hearing loss have greater difficulty understanding speech in noisy environments, such as restaurants or subway stations.
During the test, you will hear nonsense words in a fluctuating background noise. Your task is to select the word you heard from several options displayed on your screen. Depending on your answers, the background noise will be adjusted. Unlike similar hearing tests, the volume setting is not crucial.
The test consists of 9 test items per ear and determines how well you can understand speech in background noise. By comparing your results with the average score for normal listeners, the program might help you determine whether you have hearing impairment. However the results of the Hearing Test are not to be utilized as an official outcome for assessing levels of hearing loss. True hearing loss assessments can only be determined by a licensed hearing care professional.

( 1 ) Bejo Jito wrote “Too narrow hearing frequency range”. I don’t know what the frequency range of the made-up words is and would like Signia to comment. ( 2 ) It would be useful to have numerical scores in order to compare scores over time but realize that I could add up the scores myself and track them. It would also be useful to have the option of a longer test. Some of the time I am guessing at a word and perhaps guessing right. ( 3 ) I calculated my score as 11/18 and 12/18 in two games each summed across both ears. The interpretation was "your hearing does not seem to be at its best". Then I played the game another time but deliberately chose “Not understood” for all sounds but one. I got the same message "your hearing does not seem to be at its best". Surely there must be a difference in interpretation between my real scores and a very low score. I would hope that Signia has correlated performance on this test with performance on standard tests. ( 4 ) I wish I could separate my review into paragraphs but I don’t know how. So see the numbers.
