J. Bruce Tomblin ; Jake Oleson ; Sophie E. Ambrose ; Elizabeth A. Walker ; Ryan W. McCreery ; Mary Pat Moeller |Objectives: There are very limited data regarding the spoken language and academic outcomes of children with mild to severe hearing loss (HL) during the elementary school years, and the findings of these studies are inconsistent. None of these s[...]Article
Elizabeth Heinrichs-Graham ; Elizabeth A. Walker ; Jacob A. Eastman ; Michaela Frenzel ; Ryan W. McCreery |Objectives: Children with hearing loss (CHL) may exhibit spoken language delays and may also experience deficits in other cognitive domains including working memory. Consistent hearing aid use (i.e., more than 10 hours per day) ameliorates these[...]Article
Background Nonlinear frequency compression (NFC) lowers high-frequency sounds to a lower frequency and is used to improve high-frequency audibility. However, the efficacy of NFC varies widely—while some individuals benefit from NFC, many do not[...]Article
Audiovisual Enhancement of Speech Perception in Noise by School-Age Children Who Are Hard of Hearing
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to examine age- and hearing-related differences in school-age children's benefit from visual speech cues. The study addressed three questions: (1) Do age and hearing loss affect degree of audiovisual (AV[...]Article
Big Stimulus, Little Ears: Safety in Administering Vestibular-Evoked Myogenic Potentials in Children
Background: Cervical and ocular vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) have become common clinical vestibular assessments. However, VEMP testing requires high intensity stimuli, raising concerns regarding safety with children, where so[...]Article
Up to 15% of children with permanent hearing loss (HL) have auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD), which involves normal outer hair cell function and disordered afferent neural activity in the auditory nerve or brainstem. Given the varyin[...]Article
Objectives: Spectral ripple discrimination tasks have received considerable interest as potential clinical tools for use with adults and children with hearing loss. Previous results have indicated that performance on ripple tasks is affected by [...]Article
Lindsey E. Jorgensen, Auteur ; Emily A. Benson, Auteur ; Ryan W. McCreery, Auteur |The primary goal of amplification is to restore audibility without causing discomfort; for someone with severe-to-profound hearing loss, the reduced dynamic range poses unique challenges in hearing-assistive device fitting. These challenges, inc[...]Article
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to measure how parent concern about childhood hearing loss varies under different description conditions: classification-based, audibility-based, and simulation-based descriptions. Method: We randomly al[...]Article
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine if traditional audiologic measures (e.g., pure-tone average, speech recognition) and audibility-based measures predict risk for spoken language delay in children who are hard of hearing (CHH[...]Article
Chelsea Kimlinger, Auteur ; Ryan W. McCreery, Auteur ; Dawna E. Lewis, Auteur |Background: For the last decade, the importance of providing amplification up to 9-10 kHz has been supported by multiple studies involving children and adults. The extent to which a listener with hearing loss can benefit from bandwidth expansio[...]Article
We examined how cognitive and linguistic skills affect speech recognition in noise for children with normal hearing. Children with better working memory and language abilities were expected to have better speech recognition in noise than peers w[...]Article

Ryan W. McCreery ; Elizabeth A. Walker | USA : Plural Publishing Inc | Core Clinical Concepts in Audiology | 2017"Pediatric Amplification: Enhancing Auditory Access" is a comprehensive resource that focuses specifically on children who wear hearing aids, who often do not receive the same emphasis in research as children with cochlear implants. The text is [...]
