  1. 1A Kansas hearing-instrument dispenser has completed pure-tone and speech testing for a client and must decide whether amplification should be considered. Which pair of records should be evaluated together for the candidacy determination identified in the Kansas examination scope?

    1. A. Pure-tone audiograms and hearing-instrument testing
    2. B. Pure-tone audiograms and speech audiometry
    3. C. Speech audiometry and earmold-impression findings
    4. D. Hearing-instrument testing and modification findings

    Answer: B

    Explanation: K.S.A. 74-5813 includes "Recording and evaluation of pure tone audiograms and speech audiometry to determine hearing instrument candidacy." The required record pair is therefore the pure-tone audiogram and speech-audiometry results.

  2. 2While reviewing the pure-tone portion of a client's audiometric test battery, a Kansas candidate finds only air-conduction thresholds. Which additional measurement completes the pure-tone modalities expressly included in the Kansas examination scope?

    1. A. Speech-reception thresholds
    2. B. Effective-masking results
    3. C. Hearing-instrument test results
    4. D. Bone-conduction thresholds

    Answer: D

    Explanation: K.S.A. 74-5813 specifies "Pure tone audiometry, including air conduction testing and bone conduction testing." Because air-conduction thresholds are already present, bone-conduction thresholds are the missing pure-tone modality.

    Reference: Creator: wkhtmltopdf 0.12.6 — K.S.A. 74-5813(b)(1)

  3. 3A clinic's recorded speech materials are temporarily unavailable during a client's speech-audiometry evaluation. Which presentation method remains expressly included in the Kansas examination scope?

    1. A. Air-conduction testing
    2. B. Bone-conduction testing
    3. C. Live voice
    4. D. Effective masking

    Answer: C

    Explanation: K.S.A. 74-5813 expressly includes "Live voice or recorded voice speech audiometry." When recorded materials are unavailable, live voice remains an included speech-audiometry presentation method.
