The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of implementing remote microphones in group exercise environments.

This study examines how concepts from Behavioural Economics (BE) can provide insights into the factors influencing decisions to seek help for hearing difficulties from a hearing health professional.

The present study aims to investigate the impact of advancing age on the response parameters of masseter vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (mVEMP) elicited using various stimulation frequencies.

To provide updated estimates of age-related hearing loss in the Dutch population, focusing on older age groups, and to explore implications for hearing rehabilitation including cochlear implant candidacy.

To explore the influence of age on wideband energy absorbance (EA), measured via Wideband Acoustic Immittance, by synthesising normative data across a wide age range.

to measure the maximum stable gain (MSG, the feedback limit) and its variability in users with two percutaneous power bone conduction devices (BCDs), to determine an MSG-based fitting range, and to measure the available aided dynamic range.

This study used the frequency following response (FFR) as an objective measure to understand the effects of varying spectral cues on brainstem neural representation in response to noise-vocoded speech, and describe the relationship between behavioural vowel recognition and the FFR peak F0 amplitudes.

Listening in a conversation has numerous demands not addressed by traditional speech-intelligibility tests. We here examine the utility of an alternative way to assess conversational listening, the just-follow conversation (JFC) test, namely its reproducibility and sensitivity to stimulus changes, as well as what it can tell us about conversational demands.

Age-related hearing loss may induce negative views of ageing, which can predict decreased physical, cognitive, and mental health over time. How hearing loss influences views of ageing, and whether its potential impact is solely negative, remains largely unexplored. This study explored how older adults with hearing loss perceive their ageing experience, using the Awareness of Age-Related Change (AARC) framework.

The overall aim of this study was to evaluate the construct validity, internal consistency and test-retest reliability of the Swedish version of the Hearing and Functioning in Everyday Life Questionnaire (HFEQ-SWE). The aim was to investigate how adults with hearing loss experience their everyday functioning from the perspective of hearing, using the HFEQ-SWE.

In congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV), risk factors for sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL)or deterioration remain unclear, and little is known about specific patterns of sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). We describe SNHL in a cohort of cCMV infants; we reviewed clinical features and their correlation with distribution, timing, and progression of SNHL.

Co-design interventions with GPs to increase referrals from general medical practice to hearing care.

To assess the feasibility of a newly developed PC-based Korean digits-in-noise (K-DiN) test for categorising the degree of hearing loss in participants with normal hearing and various degrees of hearing loss.

Lack of standardised information about hearing aid technologies presents a barrier to individuals seeking to understand and make informed choices about the hearing aid features they may benefit from.

To introduce the Phoneme Discriminability Level (PDL) and compare its ability to predict scores on the Situated Phoneme (SiP) test with those of a phoneme-level version of the Speech Intelligibility Index (SIIP) and the original Speech Intelligibility Index (SII).

To survey public attitudes about self-administered home-based hearing tests and fit-at-home hearing aids.

Measuring vestibular rehabilitation progress with questionnaires can be difficult in time-limited clinical settings. We developed and tested a new brief tool: (COSIDI), based on validated client-oriented scales for hearing aids (COSI) and for tinnitus (COSIT), and on wider evidence for involving patients in specifying the goals for rehabilitation.

To summarise the air travel experiences of adults with hearing loss, identifying barriers, facilitators, and implications for accessibility.

Two methods, paired comparisons and ratings, were investigated when comparing two hearing-aid programs in live group conversations.

This study investigated the relationship between audiovisual (AV) integration and acoustic change complex (ACC) responses in cochlear implant (CI) users.

This systematic review examines spectro-temporal resolution ability in children with cochlear implants (cCI). The objective is to summarise the articles that assess the spectro-temporal resolution ability, its relationship with speech perception, and associated factors in cCI.
