If you participate, you will have the chance to be tested with the new Eikholt test, and the results from this test will be used to improve the quality and relevance of the test for clinical use. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The test involves looking at a screen where four people take turns saying short sentences. You are asked to repeat the sentences and are scored on how well you understand the words. Various degrees of noise will be added. The testing takes up to 60 minutes and includes a quick hearing test with pure tone audiometry (test with headphones and beeps).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"460\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eikholt.no\/app\/uploads\/2025\/10\/eavt_resized_1.png\" alt=\"a man sitting in front of a laptop, in the background a woman watching a TV screen\" class=\"wp-image-5206\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eikholt.no\/app\/uploads\/2025\/10\/eavt_resized_1.png 650w, https:\/\/www.eikholt.no\/app\/uploads\/2025\/10\/eavt_resized_1-300x212.png 300w, https:\/\/www.eikholt.no\/app\/uploads\/2025\/10\/eavt_resized_1-18x12.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Am I anonymous?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You are anonymous throughout the survey. No identifying information will be collected. No personally sensitive information will be stored, only simple demographic data (age and gender).

You can get to us by car (free parking) or bus no. 24 (the nearest stop is \"Kirkelunden\" about 3 minutes walk). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Testing will take place individually. If you want to participate, you will be contacted to arrange a time. It is possible to come both during the day and in the evening.

All participants will be tested with standard pure tone audiometry (the pipe test) before testing begins.
