A systematic review of electric-acoustic stimulation
(Sage Publications, 2013)
Prescribing Amplification for Children: Adult-Equivalent Hearing Loss, Real-Ear Aided Gain, and NAL-NL1
(Sage Publications, 2003-03)
This paper focuses on how the acoustical differences between the ear canals of adults and children affect amplification requirements and describes efficient strategies to allow for these differences when prescribing and ...
Electric-acoustic stimulation in adults
(Maney, 2014)
"Bigger is better: Increasing cortical auditory response amplitude via stimulus spectral complexity"
(Ear & Hearing, 2015)
Objective: To determine the influence of auditory stimuli spectral characteristics on cortical 30 auditory evoked potentials (CAEPs). 31
Design: CAEPs were obtained from 15 normal-hearing adults in response to six multi-tone ...
An Australian version of the acceptable noise level test and its predictive value for successful hearing-aid use in an older population
(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 ...
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 ...
Clinical experience of using cortical auditory evoked potentials (CAEPs) in the treatment of infant hearing loss in Australia
(Seminars in Hearing, 2015)
This paper presents the clinical protocol that is currently being used within Australian Hearing for infant hearing aid evaluation using cortical auditory evoked potentials (CAEPs). CAEP testing is carried out in the free ...
Allowing for Asymmetric Distributions When Comparing Auditory Processing Test Percentage Scores with Normative Data
(Journal of the American Academy of Audiology, 2014)
Background: Raw percentage scores can be transformed to age-specific Z scores, despite the asymmetric
distribution of normative data using a process that is applicable to any percentage (or proportion)-
based result.
Purpose: ...
Real-life efficacy and reliability of training a hearing aid
(2013)
We investigated if training of hearing aids result in effective and reliable outcomes. Hearing-2 impaired adults trained the compression characteristic from the NAL-NL2 prescription for 3 three weeks and compared their ...
