  • Hearing Aid Study: Human Subjects Requested

    You are invited to participate in a research study comparing measures of perceived confidence in one’s ability to use and care for hearing aids.  The purpose of this study is to determine the best way to measure the factors associated with hearing aid handling skills.

     

    Participants will be asked to undergo a hearing test, complete several questionnaires, and perform a number of tasks related to the use of hearing aids.  It should take approximately 1-2 hours of your time, with breaks if necessary.  This study does not involve any risk to you. However, your participation may lead to a better understanding how to measure factors related to hearing aid use.
