中文摘要：

大量的动物实验和职业流行病学研究表明,目前的国际噪声暴露标准低估了复杂噪声对听力的危害程度,虽然能量是必要的评估参量但并不充分,复杂噪声本身的特性也至关重要。本文通过动物实验的结果,介绍峰度作为噪声能量的辅助参量,在评估复杂噪声所致听力损失的有效性,进而阐述如何从动物实验的结果推广到实际应用的思路,并用实例加以验证,对峰度参量研究的方向和应用前景进行了讨论。

英文摘要：

A number of animal experiments and epidemiologic studies in humans have demonstrated that current international standards for noise exposure may underestimate hearing trauma by complex noise. While energy is a necessary metric, it is not sufficient to evaluate hearing hazards from complex noise exposure. The characteristic of complex noise is also an important factor in evaluating complex noise-induced hearing loss（NIHL）. In this paper, the studies on using kurtosis as a metric for complex NIHL evaluation in both animal and human models are introduced. The further research direction and application prospect of kurtosis are discussed.
