Aides auditivesRésumé : Objective
IOI-HA response data are conventionally analysed assuming that the ordinal responses have interval-scale properties. This study critically considers this assumption and compares the conventional approach with a method using Item Response Theory (IRT).
Design
A Bayesian IRT analysis model was implemented and applied to several IOI-HA data sets.
Study sample
Anonymised IOI-HA responses from 13273 adult users of one or two hearing aids in 11 data sets using the Australian English, Dutch, German and Swedish versions of the IOI-HA.
Results
The raw ordinal responses to IOI-HA items do not represent values on interval scales. Using the conventional rating sum as an overall score introduces a scale error corresponding to about 10 − 15% of the true standard deviation in the population. Some interesting and statistically credible differences were demonstrated among the included data sets.
Conclusions
It is questionable to apply conventional statistical measures like mean, variance, t-tests, etc., on the raw IOI-HA ratings. It is recommended to apply only nonparametric statistical test methods for comparisons of IOI-HA results between groups. The scale error can sometimes cause incorrect conclusions when individual results are compared. The IRT approach is recommended for analysis of individual results.DOI : https://doi.org/10.1080/14992027.2020.1813338|1 Accès : Contactez la bibliothèque d'Ixelles si le lien vers la ressource électronique ne fonctionne plus Disponible en ligne : Oui En ligne : https://login.ezproxy.vinci.be/login?url=https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.

MÉdicationRésumé : Objectives
To investigate the potential association between beta blocker use and hearing ability in adults and to discern whether this effect is dose-dependent.
Design
Cross-sectional analyses. Multiple linear regression was performed with hearing ability as the dependent variable and beta blocker use as the independent variable. The independent variable was classified into three dose categories for secondary analysis. Adjustments were made for age, gender, educational level, and tobacco smoking status.
Study sample
1636 adults, 75 of whom reported being on beta blockers, from the internet-based Netherlands Longitudinal Study on Hearing (NL-SH).
Results
No significant association was found between beta blocker use and hearing ability in noise. In the adjusted regressions, beta blocker use changed the speech reception threshold in noise (SRT) by −0.04 dB signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) (95%CI [−0.67 to 0.58], p = 0.890). Medium dose beta blocker use changed SRT by −0.42 dB SNR (95%CI [−1.38 to 0.71], p = 0.433), while a high dose changed it by −0.26 dB SNR (95%CI [−1.74 to 1.4], p = 0.767).
Conclusions
No evidence was found for beta blocker-induced changes in hearing ability. Future studies on this topic should favour case-control and cohort study designs, while focussing on a hypertensive population to minimise confounding by indication.DOI : 10.1080/14992027.2021.1915508|1 Accès : Contactez la bibliothèque d'Ixelles si le lien vers la ressource électronique ne fonctionne plus Disponible en ligne : Oui En ligne : https://login.ezproxy.vinci.be/login?url=https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10 [...] Permalink : https://bib.vinci.be/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=291272

Qualite de l'auditionRésumé : Objective
To discuss the steps necessary to facilitate hearing health care in the context of well-being and healthy living
Design
Common themes among the articles in this special supplement of the International Journal of Audiology were used to identify issues that must be addressed if audiology is to move from being hearing-focussed to taking a holistic perspective of hearing care in the context of healthy aging. These are discussed within the context of other published literature.
Results and conclusions
Three needs were identified: (i) Increased interdisciplinary education to raise awareness of the interplay between hearing and health. (ii) Increased emphasis on counselling education in audiology programs so that audiologists are equipped with the knowledge, competence and confidence to provide counselling and emotional support to their patients, beyond care. (iii) Redefinition of therapeutic goal setting and hearing outcomes to include aspects of well-being, so that audiologists can capture and patients realise that that good hearing outcomes can have a direct positive impact on a persons quality of life that extends beyond their improved ability to hear. It was emphasised that each of these needs to be considered within the context of the audiologists scope of practice and audiologists well-being.DOI : https://doi.org/10.1080/14992027.2021.1905892|1 Accès : Contactez la bibliothèque d'Ixelles si le lien vers la ressource électronique ne fonctionne plus Disponible en ligne : Oui En ligne : https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/14992027.2021.1905892 Format de la ressource électronique : Site Internet Permalink : https://bib.vinci.be/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=288734

Condition d'écoute ; Effort d'écoute ; Recommandations comme sujetRésumé : About one-third of all recently published studies on listening effort have used at least one physiological measure, providing evidence of the popularity of such measures in listening effort research. However, the specific measures employed, as well as the rationales used to justify their inclusion, vary greatly between studies, leading to a literature that is fragmented and difficult to integrate. A unified approach that assesses multiple psychophysiological measures justified by a single rationale would be preferable because it would advance our understanding of listening effort. However, such an approach comes with a number of challenges, including the need to develop a clear definition of listening effort that links to specific physiological measures, customized equipment that enables the simultaneous assessment of multiple measures, awareness of problems caused by the different timescales on which the measures operate, and statistical approaches that minimize the risk of type-I error inflation. This article discusses in detail the various obstacles for combining multiple physiological measures in listening effort research and provides recommendations on how to overcome them.
