This study explores the factors that influence general practitioner (GP) decision making when referring their adult patients for a hearing assessment.
A pilot study at NAL sets the stage for a repeatable and validated way to test how well people with hearing loss can understand speech on different videoconferencing technologies and how well different technologies, such as hearing aids, improve that experience.
This study explores the effectiveness of different listening set-ups for online video conferencing to increase speech understanding and reduce listening effort.
