Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Audibility has been a focus of hearing aid research for much of the hearing aid field's existence. With modern hearing aids, audibility no longer limits performance for hearing aid wearers with moderate hearing impairment. Limitations in suprathreshold auditoryperception now need to be better understood in order to determine existing hearing deficits while aided. The ways in which hearing aids affect suprathreshold auditory function also need to be better understood in order to ensure that hearing aids provide maximal benefit in complex real-world situations. Auditory models can be used to address these needs. This talk will review current applications and future opportunities for the application of auditory models to hearing aid research.
