Two case studies using the Dichotic Digits difference Test (DDdT) to disentangle true dichotic deficits from cognitive disorders
(2016)
•Dichotic tests are the most commonly used test in CAPD
batteries.
•Fails on dichotic tests are correlated with real-life listening
difficulties (Tomlin et al., 2015).
BUT…
•Dichotic test results are also correlated ...
Selective processing of auditory evoked responses with iterative-1 randomized stimulation and averaging: A strategy for evaluating the time-2 invariant assumption.
(Science Direct, 2016)
The recording of auditory evoked potentials (AEPs) at fast rates allows the study 22 of neural adaptation, improves accuracy in estimating hearing threshold and may 23 help diagnosing certain pathologies. Stimulation ...
Provision, perception and use of trainable hearing aids in Australia: a survey of clinicians and hearing impaired adults
(International Journal of Audiology, 2016)
Objective. This study set out to obtain information on the impact of trainable hearing aids among clinicians and hearing aid users and candidates.
Design. Two online adaptive surveys were developed to evaluate provision, ...
Preliminary observations on outcomes with a self-fitted hearing aid
(2016)
The President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST) report1 that was submitted to the US Government last October has sparked much debate about the future provision of hearing health care in the US2-7. The ...
Speech referenced dynamic compression limiting: Improving loudness comfort and acoustic safety
(Macquarie University, 2016)
This thesis presents the research, development and evaluation associated with a
novel method of improving listening comfort and acoustic safety for people listening
primarily to speech produced by electronic devices such ...
Self-fitting hearing aids: issues of candidacy and support.
(2016)
Overarching goal: To map out a service delivery model that will support self-fitting hearing aid users
Candidacy: What factor(s) predict success with setting up a self-fitting hearing aid?
Support: To what extent do ...
Delving into ‘hidden hearing loss’: Results from a large-scale behavioural investigation
(2016)
Some adults report problems understanding speech in background noise yet their audiograms are clinically normal. Animal studies suggest this may result from noise-induced damage to synaptic connections between auditory ...
