  • Hearing Aid Battery Study

    You are invited to participate in a research study of your opinions of hearing aid batteries. The purpose of this study is to investigate how hearing aid users care for and manage hearing aid batteries. We are conducting this study to understand what prompts someone to change a battery and how often this needs to be done.

     
    You may be eligible to participate if you are an adult 18 years of age or older and
    currently, wear hearing aids.
     
    This research study will take about 1hour to complete. This study does not
    involve any risk to you. You will be paid $10 per session for your participation.
