“…The presented study is a post hoc analysis of self-reported HD and auditory and demographic characteristics of those participants with clinically normal hearing. Proposed explanations for the discrepancy between self-reported HD and audiometric thresholds include, but are not limited to, central presbyacusis, auditory disability with normal hearing, obscure auditory dysfunction, King-Kopetzky Syndrome, auditory dysacusis, auditory processing disorders, idiopathic discriminatory dysfunction, hidden hearing loss or cochlear synaptopathy, auditory neuropathy, inner hair cell damage, strial dysfunction, metabolic disorder, tinnitus, neurocognitive disorders, dyslexia, attention deficit disorder, traumatic brain injury, spatial hearing disorders, aging, dementia, cognitive decline or impairment, receptive aphasia, and Alzheimer’s disease (Beck & Danhauer 2019). The goal of this analysis was not to diagnose any of the aforementioned disorders, but to determine whether a number of demographic variables and common clinical and research measures of auditory function could explain and predict self-reported HD.…”

“…For those cases where speech in noise testing is deemed to be appropriate, standardized test materials should be utilized. 17 The protocols for those tests need to be followed to ensure that the test is administered in an appropriate manner. Some examples of speech in noise tests that clinicians can choose from included the following:…”

“…Speech in noise testing should be initially completed unaided as it allows for a baseline measurement. 17 Once an individual is fit with hearing aids, speech in noise testing can be completed again to help determine a level of improvement. In addition, speech in noise testing may assist clinicians when making gain adjustments on hearing aids.…”

“…Further, speech recognition in quiet (SIQ) does not necessarily correlate with speech recognition in noise (SIN) and there is no constant or predictable relationship between SIQ and SIN. Of note, although some 38 million people (USA) have hearing loss as demonstrated on an audiogram, there are an additional 26 million people 17 who have hearing difficulty and/or SIN problems which cause a multitude of problems with regard to small and large group communication, depression, anxiety, stress, social isolation, quality of life, and more. There are many possible reasons for hearing difficulties without the presence of peripheral hearing or specific central auditory hearing disorders, one of which is cognitive ability.…”
