Title

The Study of Affecting Factors on Attitude Toward Hearing Loss in Hearing Aid Users and Hearing Aid Non-Users

Pages

  97-104

Abstract

 Introduction: Attitudes and aptitudes play an important role in the acceptance of Hearing aids. We can objectively and subjectively examine the Attitude of individuals toward Hearing loss and Hearing aids, using Attitudes towards Loss of Hearing Questionnaire (ALHQ). The aim of this study was to examine the effect of demographic factors on the responses of individuals to ALHQ and to compare the scores of the Questionnaire between hearing aid users and hearing aid non-users. Materials and Methods: This study was performed on 100 hearing-impaired participants. They were divided into hearing aid users and non-users groups. After hearing assessments, the participants were asked to complete the Questionnaire; then, the responses of the two groups were compared and the effects of demographic factors on the responses were examined. Results: The Questionnaire scores in the hearing aid non-users were higher than the hearing aid users. The results showed a reverse correlation between the history of hearing aid usage and the scores of the Questionnaire. There was also a reverse correlation between the mean score of pure tone thresholds in the left ear with the scores of the Questionnaire in the hearing aid users. Furthermore, there was a significant correlation between the type of hearing aid and the scores of the Questionnaire. Conclusion: Hearing aid non-users have a more negative Attitude toward Hearing aids and are more likely to deny their Hearing loss compared to hearing aid users.
