| Abstract |
Description of an experiment comparing the method of hearing thresholds, used in the Fed.Rep. of Germany, and test methods at high sound pressure levels, used in other countries, to measure the attenuation properties of personal hearing protectors. Description of methods used and results of measurements with ear plugs. Conclusion: the hearing threshold method gives reliable and reproducible results, which are not essentially different from those obtained with measurement at high sound pressure levels. |
