INTERNATIONAL MATRIX TESTS
Repeatable speech audiometry with complete sentences in 20 languages
International matrix tests have achieved wide recognition as speech testing procedures in noise for improved diagnostics and in the use of studies in the hearing technologies market. The international matrix tests are now available in 20 different languages, covering over 60% of the world's population.
The matrix tests are designed so that the test can be performed in the language of the patient or client even if the audiometrist does not speak that language. An automated process allows for accurate results - across all language barriers.
International studies also require the use of procedures whose results are comparable with each other. For this reason, special care was taken in the development of the international matrix tests to ensure that the test procedures in the various languages are highly comparable.
