我们评估了噪音暴露工人听力保护计划所使用的听力风险因素筛查调查的可靠性。我们将筛选调查中工人的答案与有关听力损失风险因素的保密研究问卷的答案进行了比较。我们计算了卡帕统计量，以测试研究问卷中的是/否问题与一年和五年筛选调查的答案之间的相关性。我们比较了 274 名铝厂工人的筛选调查和研究问卷答案。公司内部筛选调查中的大多数问题与研究问卷显示出中等至中等的一致性（kappa 范围：-0.02，0.57）。当我们比较五年的筛选答案时，工人对筛选调查的回答与研究问卷具有更好的相关性。对于几乎所有问题，与筛选调查相比，工作人员更有可能在研究问卷中做出肯定回答。听力保护计划应意识到工作人员可能会在听力筛查调查中少报听力损失风险因素和功能性听力状态。验证公司的筛查工具可以帮助提供有关听力损失和风险因素的更准确的信息。
We assessed the reliability of a hearing risk factor screening survey used by hearing conservation programs for noise-exposed workers. We compared workers’ answers from the screening survey to their answers to a confidential research questionnaire regarding hearing loss risk factors. We calculated kappa statistics to test the correlation between yes/no questions in the research questionnaire compared to answers from one and five years of screening surveys. We compared the screening survey and research questionnaire answers of 274 aluminum plant workers. Most of the questions in the in-company screening survey showed fair to moderate agreement with the research questionnaire (kappa range: −0.02, 0.57). Workers’ answers to the screening survey had better correlation with the research questionnaire when we compared five years of screening answers. For nearly all questions, workers were more likely to respond affirmatively on the research questionnaire than the screening survey. Hearing conservation programs should be aware that workers may underreport hearing loss risk factors and functional hearing status on an audiometric screening survey. Validating company screening tools could help provide more accurate information on hearing loss and risk factors.
