Hearing and age study for adults with normal or mild hearing loss
Part of Brain & nervous system, Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This study looks at how differences in hearing between your ears affect your ability to hear in noisy places. Researchers want to learn more across different ages.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- Your hearing in both ears is either very similar or different enough to be studied (no more than moderate hearing loss).
- You are a native English speaker and use spoken language to communicate.
- You can read large print on a screen, with or without glasses.
- You do not have a history of stroke, Parkinson's, PTSD, traumatic brain injury, or a cochlear implant.

This study looks at how the brain processes the timing of sounds and speech in people with cochlear implants and in people with typical hearing. It may help researchers understand what changes with age and how implant hearing works in the real world.
This study tests how well people understand speech in noisy settings, comparing younger and older adults with normal hearing and older adults with hearing loss. It aims to improve our understanding of hearing aid benefits.
This study tests whether hearing aids can help people with both hearing loss and early memory problems. It lasts for a period of time, and you will be asked to wear hearing aids daily.
This study tests new features on hearing aids to see if they help people hear better. It is for adults with a specific type of hearing loss who already use hearing aids.
This study tests four different ways to provide over-the-counter hearing aids to adults with mild-to-moderate hearing loss. It aims to find the best approach to help people hear better and improve their quality of life.
This study measures normal (expected) results from hearing and balance tests in healthy people. It may help researchers and clinics better understand what “normal” looks like so future patients’ test results can be interpreted more accurately.
