Masters Research - Master of Philosophy (MPhil)

This research investigated the experiences of Australian employees with hearing impairment who communicate orally in the workplace. Using mixed methods research, one hundred and fifty-nine people with hearing impairment responded to a sixty-one item online questionnaire, fifteen people participated in one of three focus groups and three people participated in an in-depth interview. The online questionnaire collected demographic information of the cohort and solicited information on the individual’s use of assistive technologies, experiences accessing workplace modifications, discrimination and knowledge of Australian Government support programs. The focus groups set out to gather additional qualitative context to the responses from the online questionnaire on the experiences of employees requesting workplace modifications, the value of supportive colleagues and illuminative descriptions of a workplace utopia - an environment that employees believed would allow them to offer their very best contributions to the workplace. The first in-depth interview involved an individual who chooses not to use any assistive technology, discussing her choice and subsequent experiences in the workplace, another who has experienced but not formally reported workplace discrimination in an organisation that publicly celebrates its diversity and inclusion platform while the third in-depth interview was with an individual who works in the deafness/education sector and included a discussion of the inclusion practices of professionals in the sector. Using the complementary strengths of quantitative and qualitative methodology, the research results were analysed separately and two set of findings were produced. The integration of quantitative and qualitative data in the mixed methods reporting was completed with an eye to providing a deeper understanding of the data from one source alone. Where previously published literature comments on similar findings, references and connections are noted. The key results of the research include those that demonstrate that the disconnected or even isolated nature of the individuals in the cohort means they have few opportunities to discuss the communication challenges faced or obtain peer support in overcoming the barriers experienced in the workplace. Further, despite the difficulties experienced communicating in the workplace, it became clear that the cohort has few opportunities to trial existing technologies. Surprisingly, a third of respondents to the study had never had contact with any of the Australian support or advocacy organisations designed to assist people with hearing impairment. In the area of workplace discrimination this study reported no relationship between the age of the complainant, their title or position in the organisation, the highest level of education attained or the level of deafness experienced and the reporting of discrimination. Respondents who had experienced and reported discrimination said that in three quarters of…

▼ Background and Aims: Adults with an early-onset hearing loss are being referred to cochlear implant clinics more frequently in recent years than was observed during the early years of cochlear implantation. Open set speech perception outcomes for adults with early onset hearing loss and late age at cochlear implant are typically below those measured for adults with an acquired hearing loss, and show wider variability. This variability in outcomes makes it difficult to provide appropriate and realistic counselling regarding potential to benefit in pre-operative sessions. To address this issue, this study investigated cochlear implant outcomes and predictive factors for adults with a significant early-onset hearing loss. Method: The study design involved a prospective, longitudinal evaluation of outcomes and predictive factors for a study group of 29 adults with a significant, early-onset hearing loss who received cochlear implants at the Royal Victorian Eye and Ear Hospital, Melbourne Australia. In addition to standard pre-operative clinical assessments, receptive language was assessed using the PPVT, speech intelligibility was rated using the NTID rating scale, and communication modes (reliance on sign or oral communication) were investigated. Temporal processing was assessed via gap detection testing, non-verbal IQ was assessed using the Raven’s Progressive Matrices test (RPM), and cortical auditory evoked potentials (CAEP) were recorded. Post-operatively, speech perception was measured at 3, 12 and 24 months after surgery. At the same assessment points, electrically evoked CAEP were recorded, and correlated with speech perception results. A study questionnaire was administered post-operatively to determine if a recipient’s satisfaction with their cochlear implant was correlated with performance. Speech perception, gap detection and questionnaire results were compared to a control group of adults with an acquired hearing loss. Results: The study cohort of 29 adults with significant early-onset hearing loss gained significant benefit from their cochlear implant, as measured by increased speech perception results post-operatively. Results, however, were significantly lower than those obtained from 576 adults with an acquired hearing loss from the Royal Victorian Eye and Ear Hospital. Receptive language was not correlated with post-operative speech perception, but was correlated with speech intelligibility; participants with greater speech intelligibility achieved better post-operative speech perception results. Those participants who used purely oral language achieved better speech perception and had better speech intelligibility than those who used some signing for communication. Gap detection was correlated with performance, with those participants with lower gap detection scores achieving better speech perception results. Both cortical evoked responses and non-verbal IQ were not correlated with outcomes. Adults with an early-onset hearing loss scored significantly lower than adults with an…

▼ Educational research on students with mild and moderate hearing loss (MMHL), who represent up to 15% of the student population in regular classrooms, provides neither consistent nor meaningful attention to their learning and social-emotional experiences in school contexts. The purpose of this research is to investigate the perspectives of students with MMHL to gain insight into how they, as learners, conceptualize and manage their hearing loss at school and to develop recommendations for researchers and educators. Reviewed literature includes both quantitative and qualitative research which relies heavily on teachers’ and parents’ perspectives and achievement scores over student perspectives. Literature also indicates that there are discrepancies in student reporting depending on methods of data collection. Three students with MMHL were asked directly during in-depth interviews to describe their experiences in educational contexts. Self Determination Theory (SDT) (Deci & Ryan, 1985) provides an analytical and organizing framework for social-emotional elements of these learners’ experiences based on three psychological needs: relatedness, competence, and autonomy. In addition to SDT, a discussion of disability identity development research (e.g., Gill, 1997) provides a supplementary conceptual tool to expand the latent meanings of these experiences and socially constructed elements that students with hearing loss negotiate. Findings provide descriptive accounts of participants’ lived experiences with MMHL in educational contexts. Emergent patterns and themes identify broadly defined yet coherent messages highlighting the importance that educators (a) understand the lived experience of students with MMHL, (b) recognize the inherent contradictions that can accompany this disability, and (c) attend to needs, to communication, learning, and social-emotional needs. Each case indicates that student needs are met inconsistently resulting in adverse consequences for self-determined learning and social-emotional well-being. It is recommended that classroom teachers proactively facilitate potential learning outcomes for students with MMHL by attending to not only academic and communication needs, but to social-emotional needs as well. Researchers in education must further investigate the population of students with MMHL to assess their strengths and to ascertain the type of supports and interventions from which they could benefit.

▼ Sclerosteosis is a rare genetic bone dysplasia disorder characterised by generalised craniotubular bone modelling. Alongside many clinical appearances marked in sclerosteosis, the auditory system is considerably compromised on several levels during the disease progression. Extensive otolaryngological research on the history of sclerosteosis, the clinical presentation of sclerosteosis, radiographic studies and the gene causing the condition had been documented. No studies had been found describing the audiological profiles, auditory functioning and abnormalities for subjects with sclerosteosis. Thus the object of this study aimed to describe the auditory profile of subjects with sclerosteosis. A cross-sectional descriptive research design and quantitative research approach was followed to investigate the auditory characteristics of subjects with sclerosteosis. Subjects were selected from a database of patients with confirmed diagnoses of sclerosteosis. Ten subjects responded and provided written informed consent. Test procedures included otoscopy, tympanometry, acoustic reflexes, diagnostic pure-tone airand bone-conduction audiometry, speech audiometry, distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAE), auditory brainstem responses (ABR) and computed tomographic (CT) scans. The subjects were assessed with a comprehensive audiological test-battery within a single test session lasting approximately two hours. A CT scan was conducted on a separate occasion shortly after the audiological data were obtained. Normal type A tympanograms were obtained in 50% (n=10/20) of ears. All subjects presented with mixed hearing losses varying from moderate (5%; n=1), severe (55%; n=11) and profound (40%; n=8) degrees across ears. Hearing loss configurations ranged from rising (15%), sloping (35%) and air-conduction thresholds peaking at 2000 Hz (50%). Air bone gaps (ABG) were larger in older subjects, although not statistically significant (p>.05). The CT scans indicated anatomical abnormalities of the external auditory canal, tympanic membrane, middle ear space, ossicles, oval window, round window and the internal auditory canal. The progressive abnormal bone formation in sclerosteosis involved the middle ear, the round and oval windows of the cochlea and internal auditory canal. The progressive abnormal bony overgrowth, which is the hallmark of sclerosteosis, led to functional impairment at various levels in the auditory system. The current findings provided a comprehensive auditory profile for sclerosteosis. Results might be utilised alongside future research findings to direct criteria and audiological indications for surgical and audiological intervention.

▼ RESUMO: A surdez súbita (SS) caracteriza-se por uma perda abrupta de audição, mais frequentemente unilateral e associada a sensação de preenchimento aural, acufenos e vertigem. Afecta 5-20/100.000pessoas/ano (sobretudo adultos em fase activa na década de 40), com grande impacto na qualidade de vida. Possíveis causas incluem doenças infecciosas, circulatórias, traumáticas, imunológicas, neoplásicas, neurológicas, tóxicas e cocleares. No entanto, a causa da SS permanece desconhecida na maioria dos casos (80%), o que origina tratamentos controversos e frequentemente ineficientes. Os tratamentos disponíveis variam desde corticosteróides a antivirais, vasodilatadores, anti-agregantes, anticoagulantes, vitaminas e oxigénio hiperbárico (OHB). Atendendo a falta de informação relativa à etiologia e fisiopatologia da SS, pretendemos avaliar a evolução clínica dos doentes com SS tratados com OHB no Centro de Medicina Subaquática e Hiperbárica (CMSH) de Lisboa entre 2000 e 2005, durante um período mínimo de 5 anos, na tentativa de identificar eventuais factores de risco ou noxas clínicas com a SS. O estudo retrospectivo proposto baseia-se na revisão de processos clínicos do CMSH e na aplicação telefónica de questionários médicos de “follow-up” confidenciais – tanto a doentes (grupo de estudo), como aos respectivos esposos/companheiros/membros próximos da família (grupo de controlo) –, com particular ênfase nos antecedentes médicos e história clínica actual. Um estudo preliminar de 20 pessoas (10 doentes e 10 controlos) foi efectuado para antecipar dificuldades e estimar as necessidades logísticas. As dificuldades identificadas foram: 1) selecção dos doentes com números de telefone válidos e processos clínicos completos (com audiograma inicial e final); 2) contacto telefónico com os participantes de ambos os grupos (de estudo e controlo); 3) recursos humanos requeridos. Dado que a SS não é uma doença em si, mas um sintoma de uma doença subjacente, acreditamos que este estudo epidemiológico seja importante e útil, capaz de gerar novas luzes sobre a fisiopatologia e mecanismos desta entidade clínica. – – – – -ABSTRACT:Sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSHL) is characterized by abrupt, mostly unilateral loss of hearing, frequently associated to aural fullness, tinnitus and vertigo. It affects 5-20/100.000 people/year (particularly working adults in the 40ths), with huge impact on quality of life. Possible causes include infectious, circulatory, traumatic, immunologic, metabolic, neoplastic, neurologic, toxic and unidentified cochlear diseases. Nevertheless, SSHL’s etiology remains unknown in most cases (80%), giving rise to controversial (and frequently ineffective) treatments. Available therapies range from corticosteroids to antivirals, vasodilators, antiaggregants, anticoagulants, vitamins and hyperbaric oxygen (HBO). Given the lack of data concerning SSHL’s etiology and physiopathology, we intend to evaluate clinical evolution of such patients treated with HBO in the Underwater and Hyperbaric Medical Center (UHMC) at Lisbon…

Can listening to information at a low volume improve hearing? To test this hypothesis this experiment had undergraduate students listen to a podcast at a low volume. In addition, this study also explored expectation or priming someone to anticipate a particular outcome. The central questions of this study asked how both listening to a podcast at a low volume and expectation influenced hearing outcomes, reaction times, the comprehension of auditory information and perceived mindfulness. A secondary line of inquiry examined whether one’s perceived mindfulness is correlated with reaction times. To this end, 111 Harvard undergraduate students with no history of hearing impairment were recruited into a 2 x 2 factorial designed study, where podcast volume and expectation were the factors at play. All participants completed a Langer Mindfulness Scale and a hearing test before being placed into one of four conditions: condition 1, participants listened to a podcast at a regular volume and were told they could expect their hearing to improve, condition 2, participants listened to a podcast at a regular volume, condition 3, participants listened to a podcast at a low volume and were told that they could expect their hearing to improve, and condition 4, participants listened to a podcast at a low volume. Participants then completed a second Langer Mindfulness Scale and hearing test, as well as a visual reaction time test, an auditory reaction time test and a quiz designed to test participants’ comprehension of the podcast material. This study found that found that that participants that listened to podcasts at a low volume would experience improvements in their posttest hearing test scores. Additionally, being within an expectation group was significantly associated with better scores on hearing tests. It should be noted that this study presupposed that listening to podcasts at a lower volume level will allow participants to mindfully notice change. Due to the fact that other mindfulness interventions have produced positive changes in auditory processing (Langer, 2009) this study’s results may give further credence to the notion that engaging in mindfulness can positively impact sensory processing. In light of these results it may be prudent to explore whether listening to information at a low volume can improve the hearing of those who live with mild to moderate hearing impairment. Conversely, based on the analysis of this thesis the podcast volume and expectation were not significantly correlated with reaction times or perceived mindfulness. Similarly, perceived mindfulness was not significantly correlated with reaction times. Lastly, the comprehension assessment used to evaluate the comprehension of podcast material proved to be too easy. As a result, a ceiling effect was observed and thus whether listening to podcasts at a low volume impacts comprehension remains unknown.

▼ In Orchestra musicians hearing plays a very important role, and slight alterations in their hearing will have a significant impact on their performance ability as musicians. Although the effect of orchestra music on hearing is documented, existing researches have several drawbacks, and in most studies measurement of musical sound exposure is not linked to audiological test results. Some variables that may have a significant influence on resulting hearing loss are not taken into consideration. The literature review shows a confusing picture, and some studies identify high-frequency notches suggestive of noise induced threshold shift while others suggest musicians’ hearing levels are not significantly different from a non-exposed population. There are strict legal requirements for the daily noise exposure a worker can receive in workplace but nothing to regulate non-occupational noise and music exposure. This research work sets out to study the effects of playing in an orchestra on various age groups of musicians, to identify important variables that may potentially contribute to resulting hearing loss, and how playing in an orchestra or a band affects children in particular. In this study 37 out of 61 adult musicians (61%), 19 out of 85 youth musicians (22%) and six out of 37 children musicians (16%) were found to have a hearing loss. The sound exposure measurements confirm that there is an increased risk for hearing loss of all ages and the majority of musicians are also exposed to high impulse noise with the peak level of above 140dB. There is a broad individual difference in sensitivity and vulnerability. It is often difficult to estimate total sound exposure for every musician. Individual susceptibility seems to depend on known and unknown factors and interaction between intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Personal ear protection devices are seldom used among the musicians. Hence this study stresses the importance of an individualised hearing conservation programme that includes identifying all potential variables/factors that may increase the risk. This thesis addresses the development of hearing loss in orchestra musicians, audio logical findings among players of different musical instruments, and methods of effective hearing conservation programmes for preventing hearing loss in musicians.

Os estados do Nordeste brasileiro concentram elevadas taxas de pessoas com deficiências, mas pouco se estudou a respeito de suas causas. O objetivo desse estudo foi determinar a prevalência da deficiência auditiva e estimar a contribuição dos fatores genéticos na sua etiologia nas populações de dois municípios do Nordeste brasileiro. Após indicação pelos agentes comunitários de saúde para avaliação clínico-genética, foram avaliados 182 indivíduos com perda auditiva manifestada antes dos 60 anos dos municípios de Gado Bravo (76 pacientes) e Queimadas (106 pacientes), com população de 8.376 e 41.049 habitantes, respectivamente. Em Queimadas, 13 pacientes eram homozigotos com a mutação c.35delG no gene GJB2 (13/106, 12,2%; 6/81, 7,4% das famílias). Já em Gado Bravo, somente um paciente era homozigoto com esta mutação (1/76, 1,3%; 1/55, 1,8% das famílias). A mutação m.A1555G no gene mitocondrial MTRNR1 e a mutação c.167delT no gene GJB2 não foram detectadas em ambos os municípios. Quanto às deleções do GJB6, apenas a del(GJB6-D13S1854) foi encontrada em quatro casos em Gado Bravo (4/76, 5,3%; 2/55, 3,6% das famílias). Após o sequenciamento completo do gene GJB2, foi detectada a mutação p.W24X (c.G71A) em heterozigose em três casos isolados do município de Gado Bravo (3/76, 3,9%). Em resumo, mutações patogênicas no lócus DNFB1 foram encontradas em 16% (34/212) dos alelos testados no município de Queimadas e em 9,9% (15/152) dos alelos testados no município de Gado Bravo. No total da casuística, ocorreram 11 pacientes com uma única mutação recessiva detectada (monoalélica) no lócus DFNB1. As amostras desses 11 pacientes foram submetidas à análise de MLPA na tentativa de identificar uma segunda mutação, do tipo variação do número de cópias, mas nenhuma mutação foi encontrada. O gene SLC26A4 foi sequenciado em amostras de famílias com padrão de herança autossômico recessivo sem mutação detectada no lócus DFNB1, que apresentaram ligação compatível por meio de microssatélites na região próxima a esse gene. Não foi detectada nenhuma mutação patogênica na região de código desse gene. Após o estudo de ligação por meio de array de SNPs e microssatélites em uma família com quatro afetados pela síndrome de Usher do município de Gado Bravo, o gene CLRN1 apareceu como provável candidato e as amostras desses pacientes foram selecionadas para sequenciamento. Foi detectada a mutação p.Y63X em homozigose nos quatro pacientes. As amostras dos outros pacientes com essa síndrome também foram sequenciadas. Essa mutação foi encontrada em homozigose em 21 dos 23 casos de síndrome de Usher em Gado Bravo. A porcentagem de casos de surdez com provável etiologia genética em Gado Bravo e Queimadas foi estimada em 55% e 45%, respectivamente

▼ This research investigates the impact of various types of cochlear hearing loss and mask- ing noise on the perception of basic speech sounds based on the information of identified speech cues. A psychoacoustic method, named three-dimensional deep search (3DDS), is developed to identify the perceptual cues of consonant sounds in natural speech. Unlike the conventional method of synthetic speech, which requires a prior hypothesis about the acoustic cues to generate the speech stimuli, the 3DDS measures the contribution of each subcomponent to speech perception as a function of time, frequency and intensity, without making any tacit assumptions about the speech cues to be identified. Using the 3DDS, we discovered that natural speech often contains conflicting cues that are characteristic of confusable sounds. For instance, a normal /ka/, dominated by a mid-frequency burst at 1???2 kHz, may also have an inaudible /ta/ burst above 3 kHz that promotes the /ka/???/ta/ confusion under noisy environments. Removal of the /ka/ burst may turn the sound into a solid /ta/. More than a dozen hearing-impaired ears were tested on consonant identification in noise. While the deterioration in performance for flat mild-to-moderate hearing loss can be well predicted by the loss of audibility, subjects with other types of hearing loss often show patterns of difficult sounds that can hardly be explained by the shift of hearing threshold. A subject with almost identical binaural hearing loss is nearly deaf to /ka/ in one ear due to a mid-frequency cochlear dead region. Among the 18 /ka/s produced by different talkers, the subject can only hear one /ka/ at an accuracy of 80% and three other /ka/s at 20???40%. Most /ka/s are highly confused with /ta/ because the subject is listening to the conflicting /ta/ burst in the high-frequency. The /ka/???/ta/ confusion is significantly reduced when the conflicting cue is removed. NAR-L improves the average score by 10%, but it may degrade a few consonants under certain circumstances.

▼ Despite the preventability of noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) a high prevalence is still reported in South African mines. The study aimed to describe the hearing of gold miners pertaining to the prevalence and degree of NIHL and effectiveness of current RSA impairment criteria to identify NIHL. The audiological data, collected between 2001 and 2008, of 57 714 mine workers were investigated in this retrospective cohort study. Data was accessed through the mine’s electronic database and exported to Microsoft Excel 2007 worksheets. Participants were categorised in terms of noise exposure (level and working years), age, race and gender. Noise exposure levels were described in terms of a specific occupation and categorized into four groups based on dosimeter data received from the mine’s noise hygienist, namely: 1) Below surface (underground) noise exposure, ≥85 dB A, classified according to the South African regulations on the daily permissible dose of noise exposure8, named Noise Group 1; 2) Surface noise exposure, ≥85 dB A, named Noise Group 2; 3) No known occupational noise exposure, named control group; and 4) Uncertain levels of noise exposure, e.g. students and trainees, named Noise Group 4. The control group was matched with participants of noise group 1 and 2 based on gender, race and age at the most recent audiogram test. Descriptive and inferential statistics were employed. Measures of central tendency and variability were used with analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) and pairwise comparisons according to Fisher’s Least Squares Differences Approach (F test). Results indicated that noise exposed groups had significantly higher prevalence of high and low frequency hearing loss than the control group. High-frequency hearing loss was also present in the control group. The greatest differences in prevalence of hearing loss were observed at 3, 4 kHz and age group 36 to 45 years. Thresholds at 8 kHz were worse than expected and decline slowed down with age. High-frequency thresholds showed a non-linear growth pattern with age with a greater decline at 2 kHz with age in the noise-exposed population compared to the control group. Hearing deteriorated more across age groups with more noise-exposed years, and this deterioration was most visible after 10 to 15 working years and at 3 kHz. Females had better hearing than males across the frequency spectrum. Black males had significantly better high-frequency hearing than white males but significantly worse low-frequency hearing than white male counterparts. PLH values showed poor correlation (through statistical analyses) with other well-accepted hearing impairment criteria. To date this was the largest study conducted on the hearing of gold miners and the sample included a very large number of black males exposed to occupational noise (N=17 933). Values supplied in distribution table format are therefore unique and contribute greatly to the knowledge base. Advisors/Committee Members: Prof D C D Swanepoel (advisor).

▼ Background: Tuberculosis therapy is characterized by many side effects including hearing loss. It has been documented that the use of aminoglycosides for TB treatment is the cause of the associated hearing impairment. The consequential effect of hearing impairment on the patient is high. This has its long-term socio-economic effect (social isolation and stigmatization) on patients, families and public health in general. Hearing loss can compromise treatment compliance and also affect the quality of life of patients during and after treatment. Aim: The aim of the study was to determine and establish the prevalence of hearing loss among patients receiving treatment for TB. Method: A quasi-experimental, post-test only with non-equivalent control group design involving 60 consenting patients receiving treatment for TB at the chest clinic of the Tema General Hospital between February and May 2018 and a control group of 60 age and gender-matched uninfected volunteers constituted this study. Data on demographics and case history were collected using a structured questionnaire. The hearing status of participants was assessed using conventional pure tone audiometry and transient evoked otoacoustic emission tests. Data were analyzed using the SPSS statistical software package. Results: A hearing loss prevalence of 20% was found among patients receiving treatment for TB. Out of the 60 patients on TB medications assessed, 12 presented with hearing loss that ranged from mild to severe. Patients who presented with the poor thresholds were all referred in the OAE. Hearing thresholds of patients receiving anti-TB medications were significantly elevated (p<0.05) in comparison to the thresholds of the control group. A statistically significant (p<0.05) difference was observed between the hearing thresholds of patients receiving treatment and the uninfected volunteers especially at the high frequencies. A similar significant (p< 0.05) association was also found between exposure to TB medications and poor hearing thresholds. Conclusion: Patients receiving treatment for TB usually demonstrate significantly elevated hearing thresholds which tend to be more pronounced at the high frequencies. Audiological management of these patients should, therefore, be an essential part of their therapeutic treatment plan. This will help improve their quality of life during and after treatment.

▼ Noise exposure is one of the most common hazards in the work force. There are multiple occupations that experience large amounts of noise exposure to its employees on a regular basis. Flight ground crews and flight maintenance personnel are among the nosiest jobs that exist. Despite the mandatory hearing protection requirements for a job of this caliber, there still remains a chance of an over exposure to noise. Most of the exposure comes from the different types of loud repair equipment and tools, but the greatest exposure comes from a jet engine that can reach 140 decibels. Flight maintenance personnel often work in an environment where the hours are long and there is continuous noise at high decibels. Flight maintenance personnel are typically in multiple places throughout a workday because of the maintenance responsibilities of different equipment, trucks, and planes. This study will examine the noise exposure levels of the service members in the Aerospace Ground Equipment (AGE) department on a United States Air Force base. The study will help determine if the service members in the AGE department are being over exposed to noise from their daily routines as flight repair personnel. There has been previous noise sampling done on the AGE department and there will be a comparison of data due to different equipment, change in personnel, and standard operating procedures for the department. The bioengineering/ environmental department is typically responsible for sampling of the AGE department. They have had a difficult time with suggesting engineering controls due to the constant mobility of the maintenance crews. As a result, they have to rely heavily on administrative controls and effective Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). This study will include sampling for a standard workday including day and night shift for the AGE department. The sampling will be done by using personal noise dosimeters and a sound level meter will be used to conduct area sampling for equipment in AGE shop. The AGE department on the Air Force base agreed to allow personnel from their shop to participate in this study. In this study, we will adhere to the Air force safety regulations and sampling techniques

▼ The ability to adequately perceive and utilize the prosody of spoken language is important for successful communication. Children with hearing loss who use cochlear implants have demonstrated deficits in perception of stress and intonation in spoken language, but not rhythm in music, compared to children who use hearing aids or children who have normal hearing. These deficits have been attributed in part to limitations of cochlear implant technology. Wearing a hearing aid in addition to the cochlear implant can reduce some of these deficits. In this study, perception of stress, intonation, and speech rhythm was compared among 8-16 year old children with hearing loss who used cochlear implants, children with hearing loss who used bimodal technology - one cochlear implant and one hearing aid in the contralateral ear, and children with normal hearing. The results of this study indicated that most children were sensitive to stress, intonation, and rhythm of speech. Children with hearing loss were comparable to children with normal hearing in their sensitivity to stress and rhythm, and intonation present in unfiltered, connected speech, but were deficient in their perception of intonation present in low-pass filtered speech. Children with hearing loss were comparable to children with normal hearing when identifying the language of an utterance based on phonemic and prosodic cues, but were deficient when minimal phonemic cues were present. Children who used bilateral cochlear implants performed similarly to children who used bimodal technology, indicating that sensitivity to prosodic features was possible with either of the hearing technologies. Audiological factors such as early amplification, longer duration of auditory exposure, and adequate low-frequency access had a positive impact on perception of prosody in speech. The finding that children with hearing loss were comparable to children with normal hearing in their perception of stress and intonation is in contrast to previous findings, and might be attributed to differences in task design as well as in audiological and intervention characteristics of the children in this study compared to previous studies.

Ashmead (chair), Rene Gifford (committee member), Anne Marie Tharpe (committee member), John Rieser (committee member), Karen Iler Kirk (committee member), Andrea Hillock-Dunn (committee member).

▼ Age related hearing loss (ARHL) affects one in three humans aged over 65 years of age. The most common complaint in ARHL is difficulty understanding speech in noise. Olivocochlear (OC) efferents project from the brain to the cochlea and represent the final stage of the descending auditory pathway. OC efferents are involved in listening in loud environments and protect the cochlea from noise damage. We used anatomical methods to investigate OC efferent cell morphology and top-down patterns of descending input from the inferior colliculus (IC) to determine if deterioration of the descending auditory pathway accompanies peripheral auditory pathology in the mouse. Brightfield, fluorescent, and electron microscopy were used to identify OCs and their synaptic inputs in 1-,3-, and 6-month old mice with normal hearing (CBA/CaH), progressive high frequency hearing loss (DBA/2), and congenital deafness (homozygous Shaker2). Electrophysiologically directed injections in the IC were used to elucidate the tonotopic nature of descending input to the medial OC (MOC) efferent population. In normal hearing mice, the IC provides excitatory synaptic input to MOCs in a tonotopic manner. Higher frequencies project to medially located cells, whereas lower frequencies project to laterally located cells. Synaptic input was retained in hearing loss and congenital deafness, however, the spatial distribution of terminals and MOC somata were significantly altered. Together, these data indicate that the nature and time course of peripheral hearing pathology is correlated with loss of MOC efferent cells and a systematic deviation of descending input from the IC in a frequency dependent manner. Therefore, changes to the descending central auditory pathway may help to explain the difficulty extracting signals from background noise characteristic of ARHL. In the course of investigating OC efferents, we consistently identified a population of cells in the ventral nucleus of the lateral lemniscus that appeared to project to the cochlea. Using immunohistochemical, neuronal tract tracing, and electron microscopic methods, we characterized these ‘dorsal efferents’ with respect to the existing OC populations and provide evidence for their inclusion as a new class of auditory efferents in mouse.

▼ The purpose of this dissertation work was to examine the impact of auditory deprivation in the form of age-related hearing loss (ARHL) and auditory stimulation in the form of hearing aid use, on the neural registration and abilities to use sound for higher level cognitive tasks, in older adults (aged 55-75). Three groups were examined: 1) NH: older adults with clinically normal hearing, 2) u-HL: peers with bilateral mild to moderate/moderately- severe sensory-neural hearing loss who have never worn hearing aids and 3) t-HL: peers with a similar amount of hearing loss, but who have been treated through binaural amplification (hearing aids). Participants completed two sessions: 1) Behavioral tests: Audiometry, cognitive screening, quality of life questionnaires, nonverbal IQ test, speech recognition in quiet and noise, and tests of verbal working memory function (both auditory and visual); 2) Electrophysiology: Evoked potentials (P1-N1-P2) recorded in response to a speech syllable presented at two different sound levels (equal sound pressure level (SPL) and equal sensation level (SL)). All three groups performed similarly on tests of speech perception in noise, working memory and nonverbal IQ, but differed on self-report measures of hearing handicap. Both hearing loss groups indicated greater reported greater hearing handicap (HHIE) than NH groups. Additionally, individuals with untreated hearing loss showed a positive relationship between working memory performance and speech understanding in noise. Neural measures indicated significant morphological differences (latency and amplitude) between groups, but only when the stimuli were presented at equal SPL. Once audibility was accounted for (equal SL levels) these differences were not present, suggesting group differences were due to audibility, and not central changes secondary to auditory deprivation. Results highlight the importance of the audibility of sound, and suggest that early sound processing and later use of sound for processes involved in communication is not permanently affected by mild to moderate/moderately-severe ARHL.

Model: A study of the Sustained Auditory Attention Ability Test ? SAAAT in three groups: group 1 (G1) control group comprising children with normal hearing, group 2 (G2) children with a bilateral sensorineural hearing loss of a mild degree and group 3 (G3), comprising children with a bilateral conductive hearing loss of a mild degree. Place: Division for Hearing Health ? Craniofacial Anomaly Rehabilitation Hospita, University of São Paulo (HRAC/USP). Participants: 7 to 11 year old children, 30 for each group. Interventions: Pure Tone Audiometry, Immitance Acoustic and SAAAT. Results: There were not any statistically significant indications between sex and age in all studied groups. Sensorineural and conductive groups showed a lower performance related to control group in all answers for SAAAT. Conclusions: SAAAT test suffered the influence of conductive and sensorineural hearing losses of light degree in studied population, the worse compromise occurring for sensorineural losses.

▼ A deficiência auditiva pode ter impacto negativo na qualidade de vida do indivíduo interferindo nas esferas das atividades e participação. O Aparelho de Amplificação Sonora Individual (AASI) é uma alternativa viável de tratamento para grande parte desta população. Entretanto, a simples aquisição de AASI não garante a resolução da deficiência. Estudos vêm apontando benefícios do aconselhamento de ajuste pessoal ao usuário de AASI desde a etapa de diagnóstico audiológico, favorecendo o processo de adaptação. Neste sentido, o objetivo deste estudo foi analisar o modelo transteórico de aconselhamento (MTT) que tem permitido uma abordagem mais ampla do indivíduo de maneira a englobar o sistema de crenças e aspectos motivacionais em candidatos a uso de AASI. Participaram deste estudo 20 candidatos (10 homens e 10 mulheres), com idades entre 25 e 64 anos (média = 52,95 anos) e deficiência auditiva neurossensorial bilateral de grau variando entre leve e severa. As estratégias utilizadas para o aconselhamento foram: a Escala de Prontidão (EP) e a Balança Decisória (BD), ambas propostas pelo Ida Institute, e as Proposições de Babeu et al. (2004). O aconselhamento foi realizado em três sessões: após o diagnóstico audiológico; no retorno para o teste com AASI, mas antes do mesmo; e após, ao menos, uma semana de utilização do AASI. Em cada sessão eram aplicadas as três ferramentas. As atitudes dos participantes foram avaliadas nos três momentos por meio do Questionário de Atitudes frente à Deficiência Auditiva (ALHQ). Como resultado, os participantes de modo geral mostraram por meio da EP, nos três momentos, que consideravam ser muito importante a melhora da audição e percebiam-se preparados para o uso do AASI. A BD indicou os elementos a serem trabalhados e que levaram os participantes a atribuírem valores na EP e a escolha nas Proposições de Babeu et al. (2004) por meio de reflexões quanto às vantagens e desvantagens com relação à audição prejudicada e ao uso de AASI. Tanto a BD quanto as Proposições de Babeu et al. (2004) possibilitaram a discriminação do estágio de mudança a que cada participante se encontrava. A maioria dos participantes indicou o estágio de ação para a sua condição motivacional nos três momentos. Comparando as atitudes dos participantes nesses três momentos, foram evidenciadas diferenças estatisticamente significantes somente com a influência da experiência com AASI (subescalas de Negação da perda auditiva e Estratégias negativas de enfrentamento). Embora não tenham sido evidenciadas diferenças estatisticamente significantes sem esta influência, a diminuição na amplitude do desvio padrão nas subescalas de Estima Relacionada à Audição e Associações Negativas sugere uma tendência maior à disposição para mudanças a qual pode ser atribuída ao aconselhamento uma vez que nesta etapa o participante ainda não utilizava AASI. Conclui-se que, o MTT aplicado às etapas iniciais do processo de adaptação do AASI constitui em uma proposta objetiva e factível para que este processo englobe aspectos importantes tais… Advisors/Committee Members: Abramides, Dagma Venturini Marques.
