Abstract	This thesis attempts to establish, using a model framework, a relationship between the psychophysical measurement of off-frequency listening and the functional auditory loss caused by dead regions in the cochlear. The results are used to evaluate the clinical value of dead region diagnosis with PTCs and the TEN test.
