Answer»

Right choice is (a) True

To elaborate: It is True. The frequency range of pure-tone audiometer is more than that of speech audiometer. Pure-tone audiometers usually generate TEST tones in octave steps from 125 to 8000 HZ, the signal intensity RANGING from –10 dB to +100 dB. Speech audiometry normally ALLOWS measurements to be made within the frequency range of 300–3000 Hz. Pure-tone audiometry has several ADVANTAGES, which makes it specifically suitable for making threshold sensitivity measurements.
