Hearing Health Self Test

For a Printable Test Click Here


The procedure for taking our Hearing Health Self Test is simple; all you have to do is honestly answer the first 14 statements with one of four responses:

Response #1.) Almost always: 3 points
Response #2.) Half of the time: 2 points
Response #3.) Occasionally: 1 point
Response #4.) Never: 0 points

And, if you are inclined to include them, statement 15 is to be answered by a family member or close friend.

  1. I have a problem hearing over the telephone.
  2. I have trouble following the conversation when two or more people are talking at the same time.
  3. People complain that I turn the TV and radio volume up too loud.
  4. I have to strain to understand conversations.
  5. I miss hearing some common sounds like the phone or doorbell ringing.
  6. I have trouble hearing conversations in a noisy background such as a party or restaurant.
  7. I get confused about where sounds come from.
  8. I misunderstand some words in a sentence and need to ask people to repeat themselves.
  9. I especially have trouble understanding the speech of young children and women.
  10. I have worked in loud, noisy environments (assembly lines, lumber mills, construction, agriculture, with jet engines, etc.) and/or my recreational activities expose me to loud noise (hunting, target shooting, boating, off-road vehicles, race cars, etc.).
  11. Many people I talk to seem to mumble.
  12. People get annoyed with me because I misunderstand what they say.
  13. I misunderstand what others say and make inappropriate responses.
  14. I avoid social activities because I cannot hear well and fear that I’ll reply improperly.
  15. To be answered by a family member or close friend: Do you think this person has difficulty hearing?

If you scored anything but a 0 on this test (including what your family member or friend answered!), you might have a hearing loss and should schedule an appointment to see me.

Call my office toll-free at 1 (888) 844-7024 and tell us you took our Hearing Health Self Test, and we will schedule you for a complimentary hour-long office visit, which includes a consultation, examination, hearing screening, and review of the results… Because hearing is a wonderful gift! – Crystal Chalmers, Au.D.
