Assessing self-management of hearing impairment in older adults
Convery, Elizabeth; Meyer, C; Keidser, Gitte; Hickson, L (2017)To evaluate the capacity of a self-management assessment tool to identify unmet hearing health care (HHC) needs; to determine whether such an assessment yields novel and clinically useful information. Design: Hearing loss ... -
An Australian version of the acceptable noise level test and its predictive value for successful hearing-aid use in an older population
Walravens, Els; Keidser, Gitte; Hartley, David; Hickson, Louise; (2014)Objective: The Acceptable Noise Level (ANL), a measure of noise tolerance, has been 2 proposed as a predictor for successful hearing aid use. The aims of this study were to obtain 3 normative data, and to evaluate the ... -
Better visuospatial working memory in adults who report profound deafness compared to those with normal or poor hearing: data from the UK Biobank resource
Rudner, Mary; Keidser, Gitte; Hygge, Staffan; Ronnberg, Jerker (Ear & Hearing, 2016)Profound deafness and visuospatial working memory 2 Introduction Experimental work has shown better visuospatial working memory (VSWM) in profoundly deaf individuals compared to those with normal hearing. Other data, ... -
The chronic care model and chronic condition self-management: an introduction for audiologists
Convery, Elizabeth; Hickson, L; Keidser, Gitte; Meyer, C (2018) -
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 ... -
Cognitive Spare Capacity: Evaluation data and its association with comprehension of dynamic conversations
Best, Virginia; Freeston, Katrina; Boyce, Alexandra; Keidser, Gitte (Frontiers in Psychology, 2015)It is well established that communication involves the working memory system, which becomes increasingly engaged in understanding speech as the input signal degrades. The more resources allocated to recovering a degraded ... -
Development and preliminary evaluation of a new test of ongoing speech comprehension
Best, Virginia; Keidser, Gitte; Buchholz, Jorg; Freeston, Katrina (2015)Objective: The overall goal of this work is to create new speech perception tests that more closely resemble real world communication and offer an alternative or complement to the commonly used sentence recall test. Design: ... -
The effect of frequency compression on front-back localization and speech recognition in noise
O'Brien, Anna; Yeend, Ingrid; Hartley, Lisa; Keidser, Gitte; Nyffeler, Myruel (Hearing Journal, 2010) -
The effect of functional hearing and hearing aid usage on verbal reasoning in a large community-dwelling population
Keidser, Gitte; Rudner, Mary; Seeto, Mark; Hygge, Staffan; Ronnberg, Jerker (Ear & Hearing, 2015)Objectives: Verbal reasoning performance is an indicator of the ability to think constructively in everyday life, and relies on both crystallized and fluid intelligence. This study aimed to determine the effect of functional ... -
The Effect of Functional Hearing Loss and Age on Long- and Short-term Visuospatial 1 Memory: Evidence from the UK Biobank Resource
Keidser, Gitte; Ronnberg, Jerker; Hygge, Staffan; ; ; Rudner, Mary (2014)The UK Biobank offers cross-sectional epidemiological data collected on >500,000 individuals in the UK between 40 and 70 years of age. Using the UK Biobank data, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of ... -

Evaluation of the NAL dynamic conversations test in older listeners with hearing loss
Best, Virginia; Keidser, Gitte; Freeston, Katrina; Buchholz, Jorg (International Journal of Audiology, 2017)The National Acoustic Laboratories Dynamic Conversations Test (NAL-DCT) is a new test of speech comprehension that incorporates a realistic environment and dynamic speech materials that capture certain features of everyday ... -
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 ... -
