Average High-Frequency Hearing Limit by Age
This dataset aggregates performance metrics for the Hearing Age Test (Frequency Check). Use this table to understand the distribution of scores across different percentiles or demographics.
| Age Group | Frequency Limit | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Under 20 | > 19,000 Hz | Excellent |
| 20 - 29 | 17,000 - 19,000 Hz | Normal |
| 30 - 39 | 15,000 - 17,000 Hz | Normal |
| 40 - 49 | 12,000 - 15,000 Hz | Mild Decline |
| 50 - 59 | 10,000 - 12,000 Hz | Moderate Decline |
| 60+ | < 10,000 Hz | Expected Decline |

Important Limitations
The values shown are illustrative and must not be treated as statistically representative. Browser, display and audio hardware differences can materially affect individual results. No universal margin of error is asserted.
Improving Your Score
Practice can improve performance on familiar tasks, but scores are also influenced by fatigue, practice effects and hardware. Repeating the Hearing Age Test (Frequency Check) may help you track your own results; it cannot establish a diagnosis.
