Measuring communication difficulty through effortful speech
(2018)
This study describes the use of a novel conversation elicitation framework to collect fluent,
dynamic conversational speech in simulated realistic acoustic environments of varying
complexities. Our aim is to quantify ...
Effects of lifetime noise exposure on the middle-age human auditory brainstem response, tinnitus and speech-in-noise intelligibility
(2018)
Recent animal studies have shown that the synapses between inner hair cells and the dendrites
of the spiral ganglion cells they innervate are the elements in the cochlea most vulnerable to
excessive noise exposure. ...
Developing the Auditory Processing Domains Questionnaire (APDQ): A differential screening tool for auditory processing disorder
(2018)
Objective: The aim of this study was to develop a screening questionnaire for auditory processing disorder.
Design: Fifty-two questions were created to enable parent/teacher proxies to rate students’ listening skills in ...
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 ...
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 ...
Poorer speech reception threshold in noise is associated with lower brain volume in auditory and cognitive processing regions
(Journal of Speech Language and Hearing Research, 2018)
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 ...
Does the current Outreach program meet hearing-service needs in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander populations?
(National Acoustics Laboratories, 2018)
Key findings
Of the 77,162 estimated to have a hearing loss, 10,669 (13.8%) received hearing services through the funded program administered by Australian Hearing in 2017-18.
Eligibility criteria for Australian Hearing ...
