Client-Based Adjustments of Hearing Aid Gain: The Effect of Different Control Configurations
Dreschler, Wouter A; Keidser, Gitte; Convery, Elizabeth; Dillon, Harvey (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins •, 2008)Objectives: Facilitating the fine-tuning of advanced hearing aids requires information about the acoustic environment. The concept of a “trainable” hearing aid may provide a more direct approach to hearing aid fine-tuning ... -
Evaluation of the self-fitting process with a commercially available hearing aid
Convery, Elizabeth; Keidser, Gitte; Seeto, Mark; McLelland, Margot (Journal of the American Academy of Audiology, 2016)Background: Hearing aids and personal sound amplification products (PSAPs) that are designed to be self-fitted by the user at home are becoming increasingly available in the online marketplace. While these devices are often ... -

Convery, Elizabeth; Keidser, Gitte; Hickson, Louise; Meyer, Carly (2018) -
Factors associated with successful setup of a self-fitting hearing aid and the need for personalized support
Convery, Elizabeth; Keiser, Gitte; Hickson, Louise; Meyer, Carly (2017)Objectives: Self-fitting hearing aids have the potential to increase the accessibility of hearing 3 health care. The aims of this study were to: (1) identify factors that are associated with the 4 ability to successfully ... -
Factors influencing individual variation in perceptual directional microphone benefit
Keidser, Gitte; Dillon, Harvey; Convery, Elizabeth; Mejia, Jorge; Mejia, Jorge (Journal of the American Academy of Audiology, 2013-02)Background: Large variations in perceptual directional microphone benefit, which far exceed the variation expected from physical performance measures of directional microphones, have been reported in the literature. The ... -

Convery, Elizabeth; Keidser, Gitte; Seeto, Mark; Freeston, Katrina; Zhou, Dan; Zhou, Dan; Zhou, Dan; Dillon, Harvey (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins., 2014-01)The primary objective of this study was to determine whether a combination of automatically administered pure-tone audiometry and a tone-in-noise detection task, both delivered via an air conduction (AC) pathway, could ... -
Is the future of hearing aids in a flatpack? Issues of clinical support for self-fitting hearing aids
Convery, Elizabeth; Keidser, Gitte; Hickson, Louise; Meyer, Carly (2016)Self-fitting hearing aids (SFHAs) are gaining ground in the online marketplace, where they are often marketed as a low-cost alternative to traditional hearing health care (HHC). A recent evaluation of a commercially available ... -
