A qualitative examination of user perceptions of user-driven and app-controlled hearing technologies
(American Journal of Audiology, 2019) -
A qualitative study of earplug use as a health behaviour: The role of noise injury symptoms, self-efficacy, and an affinity for music
(2010)The use of earplugs in loud music venues is confined to a small minority who wish to avoid hearing damage from excessive noise exposure. Using the framework of the health belief model (HBM), structured interviews were held ... -
Quantitative analysis on the environmental impact benefits from the bandwidth-controlled marine seismic source technology
(2017)A new marine seismic surveying source technology (eSource) has recently been developed based on physical control of the bandwidth of the source elements (Coste et al., 2014). The objective of the new seismic source is to ... -
A Quantitative Examination of the Sources of Speech Discrimination Test Score Variability
(Ear & Hearing, 1982) -
A Questionnaire-Based Algorithm for Assessing Occupational Noise Exposure of Construction Workers
(Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 2017)Abstract Objectives Occupational noise exposure is a major cause of hearing loss worldwide. In order to inform preventative strategies, we need to further understand at a population level which workers are most at ... -
A randomized controlled comparison of NAL and DSL prescriptions for young children: Hearing-aid characteristics and performance outcomes at three years of age
(2013)Objective—To determine the influence of choice of prescription and other child-, family- and intervention-related factors on speech, language, and functional performance of hearing-impaired children by three years of ... -
Real-life efficacy and reliability of training a hearing aid
(2013)We investigated if training of hearing aids result in effective and reliable outcomes. Hearing-2 impaired adults trained the compression characteristic from the NAL-NL2 prescription for 3 three weeks and compared their ... -
The relationship between cortical auditory evoked potential (CAEP) detection and estimated audibility in infants with sensorineural hearing loss
(International Society of Audiology, 2012)To determine the effectiveness of objective statistical detection in CAEP testing to evaluate audibility in young infants with a sensorineural hearing loss. -
The relationship between cortical auditory evoked potential (CAEP) detection and estimated audibility in infants with sensorineural hearing loss
(International Journal of Audiology, 2012)Objective: To determine the effectiveness of objective statistical detection in CAEP testing to evaluate audibility in young infants with sensorineural hearing loss. Design: CAEP recordings to speech-based stimuli were ... -
The relationship between functional hearing and verbal reasoning
(Swedish Institute for Disability Research, 2015)Verbal reasoning is an indicator of the ability to think constructively in everyday life, and relies on both fluid (working memory processing) and crystallised (knowledge-based judgement) skills. Recent data (Rönnberg et ...
