What factors influence variation in directional microphone benefit?
(2012)
Many studies have demonstrated an average directional microphone (dirmic) benefit of 3-3.5 dB, a value that corresponds well to expectations from physical performance measures of conventional directional instruments. A ...
Perception and management of a self-fitting hearing aid among older adults
(2011)
NAL is currently investigating if a ‘self-fitting hearing aid’ (SFHA),
a device that users can program themselves without the need for
audiological or computer support, is a viable solution for
populations who have ...
The Self-Fitting Hearing Aid
(2010)
Factors influencing individual variation in perceptual directional microphone benefit
(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 ...
Identification of Conductive Hearing Loss Using Air Conduction Tests Alone: Reliability and Validity of an Automatic Test Battery
(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 ...
Client-Based Adjustments of Hearing Aid Gain: The Effect of Different Control Configurations
(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 ...
