Abstract

Occas4onaly the patient is not cooperative for audiological evaluation. For this, reasons may vary from not understanding the test procedure to deliberate feigning a hearing loss.
The terms 'functional hearing loss' (Veatry and Chaiklio, 1962) and 'pseudohypacusis' (Martin, 1978) are used generally to indicate a feigned hearing loss. There are many tests· to detect
pseudohypacusis, but there always remains a need for a simpler and more reliable tests to reveal the extent of a functional hearing loss.
