Abstract(in English) In the case of hearing examinations for abnormalities and fitting of a hearing aid, auditory brainstem evoked response (ABR) is often measured in clinical situations. In order to detect the ABR, a subject has to be given more than 1,000 hearing stimuli. We considered that the number of stimuli might be reduced by multi-channel measurements. Moreover, the accuracy of averaging was improved by verifying the accuracy of data for every stimulus. 9 channel ABR signals around the top of the head were measured in conducted experiments. Every ABR data of 10ms after the stimuli were statistically evaluated, and only the data suitable for averaging were selected. Although the number of averaging was very few, the ABR waveforms, which were equivalent to that of the conventional averaging, were obtained.
