This article describes an observer-based technique for assessing auditory capacities of infants from 3 to 12 months of age.This technique, referred to as the Observer-based Psychoacoustic Procedure (OPP), combines features of the Forced-choice Preferential Looking technique developed by Teller (1979) and of Visual Reinforcement Audiometry (Moore ; Thompson, & Thompson, 1975).The rationale behind the procedure and the specific techniques used in its application are detailed here.Psychometric functions and thresholds for pure-tone detection and frequency discrimination obtained with OPP are also presented.The results for 6-month-olds are compared with results from previous studies employing a visually reinforced head-turn procedure
