Objective and subjective hearing aid assessment outcomes.
PURPOSE To determine whether specific sentence recognition assessments were sensitive enough to serve as objective outcome measurements that document subjective improvements in speech understanding with hearing aids. METHOD The Revised Speech Perception in Noise test (R-SPIN; R. C. Bilger, J. M. Nuetzel, W. M. Rabinowitz, & C. Rzeczkowski, 1984), the Hearing in Noise Test (HINT; M. Nilsson, S...
متن کاملEvaluation of hearing aid benefit using the Shortened Hearing Aid Performance Inventory.
To date, little quantitative data regarding hearing aid benefit has been produced in New Zealand. The 38-item Shortened Hearing Aid Performance Inventory (SHAPI) was administered by mail to hearing aid clients aged over 50 years who had been fitted with hearing aids in the previous 2 years. Based on subjects' responses, three items with low applicability were dropped from the analysis. The over...
متن کاملAn objective measure for selecting microphone modes in OMNI/DIR hearing aid circuits.
OBJECTIVES Studies have shown that listener preferences for omnidirectional (OMNI) or directional (DIR) processing in hearing aids depend largely on the characteristics of the listening environment, including the relative locations of the listener, signal sources, and noise sources; and whether reverberation is present. Many modern hearing aids incorporate algorithms to switch automatically bet...
متن کاملObjective Image Fusion Performance Measure
Introduction: The recent availability of multisensor systems in key image application areas, such as remote and airborne sensing, motivated researchers to work on image fusion in general and pixel level image fusion in particular. Thus a plethora of pixel level fusion algorithms have been developed [1,2,3] with different performance and complexity characteristics. Fusion performance is mainly a...
متن کاملMaturation of hearing aid benefit: objective and subjective measurements.
The goals of this investigation were to determine whether hearing aid benefit improved significantly over the first 10 weeks of hearing aid use and whether time-related changes in benefit (if any) were affected by the type of benefit measurement (i.e., objective or subjective). A total of 17 hearing-impaired subjects participated, with different subjects completing different phases of the study...
