Self-Fitting Hearing Aids: Effects of Starting Response and Field Experience

The findings support the conclusion that, for a population with mild-to-moderate hearing loss, a generic starting response can be a viable option for over-the-counter self-fitting hearing aids. They highlight, however, the need for practice and experience with novel self-fitting hearing aids and the fact that self-fitting may not be suitable for all.

Abstract

The findings support the conclusion that, for a population with mild-to-moderate hearing loss, a generic starting response can be a viable option for over-the-counter self-fitting hearing aids. They highlight, however, the need for practice and experience with novel self-fitting hearing aids and the fact that self-fitting may not be suitable for all.
