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 ... -
Gain mismatch and horizontal localization performance

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 ... -
Hearing-aid assembly management among adults from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds: Toward the feasibility of self-fi tting hearing aids
(Informa Healthcare, 2013)Objective: The purpose of the study was twofold: (1) to assess the ability of hearing-impaired adults in the developing world to independently and accurately assemble a pair of hearing aids by following instructions that ... -
A high-performance, flexible, and cost-efficient auditory 1 evoked response 2 recording system appropriate for research purposes
(2014)The recording of auditory evoked responses (AER) is used in hospitals and clinics worldwide for hearing impairments detection and threshold estimation, and in research centers to understand and model the mechanisms ...
