The effect of age on the hearing-related quality of life in normal-hearing adults

CONCLUSION: The hAVICOP is sufficiently sensitive to detect an age effect in the hearing-related quality of life within a large group of normal-hearing adults, emphasizing its clinical utility. This age effect on the hearing-related quality of life might be related to the interplay of age-related changes in the bottom-up and top-down processes involved during speech processing.PMID:37918084 | DOI:10.1016/j.jcomdis.2023.106386
