A method for conducting a cross frequency simultaneous masking (xF SM) test begins with generating a signal probe and a masker probe. The center frequencies of the signal and masker probes are separated by a fixed frequency ratio. An xF SM curve is generated by sweeping the signal and masker probes across a given frequency range, while maintaining the fixed frequency ratio between the two. While sweeping, the masker probe is maintained at a pre-determined masker amplitude or a series of pre-determined masker amplitudes. The amplitude of the signal probe is adjusted in response to a series of user inputs, which are then interpolated to generate the xF SM curve. Additionally, while sweeping, the signal probe can be maintained at one or more pre-determine amplitudes and the amplitude of the masker probe adjusted in response to user inputs, which are then interpolated to generate the xF SM curve.
