But for many practical purposes, normative hearing is defined by a frequency versus amplitude graph, or audiogram, charting sensitivity thresholds of hearing at defined frequencies.
An audiogram is usually obtained at some point after the ear has healed.
The reference level varies with frequency according to a minimum audibility curve as defined in ANSI and other standards, such that the resulting audiogram shows deviation from what is regarded as 'normal' hearing.
On an audiogram, the resulting configuration has a distinctive notch, called a 'noise' notch.
