Cortical auditory evoked potentials (CAEPs) in adults in response to filtered speech stimuli
(Journal of the American Academy of Audiology, 2010)
Previous studies have demonstrated the CAEPs can be reliably elicited in response to speech stimuli in listeners wearing hearing aids. It is unclear, however, how close to the aided behavioral threshold (ie. at what ...
On the relationship between functional hearing and depression
(International Journal of Audiology, 2015-06)
Objective: To establish the effect of self-rated and measured functional hearing on depression, taking age and gender into account. Additionally, the study investigates if hearing aid usage mitigates the effect, and if ...
Estimating Hearing Thresholds in Hearing-Impaired Adults through Objective Detection of Cortical Auditory Evoked Potentials
(National Acoustic Laboratories, 2014)
Background: Hearing threshold estimation based on cortical auditory evoked potentials (CAEPs) has been applied for some decades. However, available research is scarce evaluating the accuracy of this technique with an ...
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 ...
Impact of the presence of auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD) on outcomes of children at three years of age
(2013)
Objective—To determine the influence of the presence of auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder
(ANSD) on speech, language, and psycho-social development of children at three years of age.
Etiology and Audiological Outcomes at 3 Years for 364 Children in Australia
(U.S. National Institute of Health PubMed Central, 2013-03-28)
Hearing loss is an etiologically heterogeneous trait with differences in the age of onset, severity and site of lesion. It is caused by a combination of genetic and/or environmental factors. A longitudinal study to examine ...
Language and speech perception of young children with bimodal fitting or bilateral cochlear implants
(Cochlear Implants International, 2014-05-01)
This paper compares language development and speech perception of children with bimodal fitting ( a cochlear implant in one ear and a hearing aid in the opposite ear) or bilateral cochlear implantation
The effect of functional hearing and hearing aid usage on verbal reasoning in a large community-dwelling population
(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 ...
Outcomes of 3-Year-Old Children With Hearing Loss and Different Types of Additional Disabilities
(2013)
This research investigated the speech, language, and functional
auditory outcomes of 119 3-year-old children with hearing loss
and additional disabilities. Outcomes were evaluated using
direct assessment and caregiver ...
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 ...
