Abstract

The paired comparison technique can be potentially useful as a means to enhance the prescriptive fitting of hearing aids. Unfortunately, there are no guidelines to suggest how this technique can be used most reliably and efficiently in the clinic. This article reviews how one can apply binomial probability theory to calculate the likelihood of acceptable outcomes in paired comparison judgments. In addition, an approach designed to maximize the efficiency of this technique is proposed.
