Factors associated with successful setup of a self-fitting hearing aid and the need for personalized support
(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 Caregiver Decision Making to Change the Communication Method of their Child with Hearing Loss
(2018)The communication journey of a child with hearing loss is often a complex, interwoven process in which the child’s use of language or method of communication may change numerous times. As there has been limited research ... -
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 ... -
Factors influencing speech perception in noise for 5-yearold children using hearing aids or cochlear implants
(International Journal of Audiology, 2017)Objective: We investigated the factors influencing speech perception in babble for 5-year-old children with hearing loss who were using hearing aids (HAs) or cochlear implants (CIs). Design: Speech reception thresholds ... -
Farmers’ work-day noise exposure
(Australian Journal of Rural Health, 2015)Objective: This study aims to understand the extent of farmers’ exposure to hazardous noise, and trial and test the ability of an on-farm noise audit report to improve awareness and preventative action towards farm ... -
The frequency-following response as an assessment of spatial processing
(International Journal of Audiology, 2019)It is important to detect children with difficulties distinguishing speech-in-noise early. Prompt identification may be assisted by an evoked potential. The aims of the present study were: 1) to evaluate the frequency-following ... -

Hearing Aid fitting and developmental outcomes of children fit according to either the NAL or DSL prescription : fit-to-target, audibility, speech and language abilities
(International Journal of Audiology, 2017)Objective: This study compared hearing aid (HA) fitting outcomes and developmental outcomes of children with hearing loss at 5 years of age. Design and study sample: HA settings of 232 children that were fit according ... -
Hearing aid safety: a comparison of estimated threshold shifts for gains recommended by NAL-NL2 and DSLm[i/o] prescriptions for children
(2013)Objective—To investigate the predicted threshold shift associated with the use of nonlinear hearing-aids set according to the NAL-NL2 or the DSL m[i/o] prescription for children. For medium and high input levels, we ... -
Hearing aids
(Hodder Arnold, 2008)Hearing aids partially overcome the deficits associated with a hearing loss. For a sensorineural hearing loss, there are several deficits to be overcome. Some sounds are inaudible. Other sounds can be detected because part ... -
Hearing Protection Devices: Use at Work Predicts use at Play
(Archives of Environmental & Occupational Health, 2015)Use of hearing protection devices (HPDs) at work is widespread and well researched, but less is known about HPD usage in high-noise leisure activities. This study investigated 8,144 Downloaded by [National Acoustic Labs], ... -

Hearing threshold shifts among 11 − 35 year olds with early hearing impairment.
(Ear & Hearing, 2017)Data obtained from the clinical records of selected 11-to 35-year-olds with preadult onset hearing impairment were analyzed with two primary aims: (1) to determine the incidence of hearing threshold level (HTL) shift in ...
