Abstract
A diagnosis of psychogenic hearing loss can be made only if the 2 following criteria are met: the patient ?ails to respond in behavioral audiometry below a certain threshold but does respond to electrophysiologic audiometry or to audiometry under hypnosis or narcosynthesis; and the patient''s sensitivity to sounds in daily life is no better than would be expected from the behavioral audiometric responses. Such a diagnosis can be validated only if the patient demonstrates improved hearing under all circumstances after successful psychiatric or psychologic treatment or after spontaneous remission of the emotional disorder.This publication has 22 references indexed in Scilit:
