Understanding personal listening strategies in hearing loss
Part of Brain & nervous system, Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This study looks at how people with hearing loss use different listening strategies. It may help find better ways to support hearing in daily life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a certain type of hearing loss called sensorineural hearing loss (damage to the inner ear or hearing nerve).
- You scored 23 or higher on a memory and thinking test called the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA).

This study looks at how much hearing aid outcomes vary in older adults who have Alzheimer’s dementia or mild memory problems. It may help researchers understand what hearing aids work best and for whom.
This study follows older adults who have age-related hearing loss to see whether wearing hearing aids helps protect thinking and memory over time. You may be included if your hearing loss is the type that hearing aids can usually improve and if your thinking test scores suggest mild cognitive difficulties.
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 a new way to help people with cochlear implants hear speech better in noisy places, while still being able to tell where sounds come from. It compares different sound processing strategies to find the best one for daily life.
This study tests two types of online listening exercises that may help improve how well you understand speech in noise, even for people who normally use hearing aids. You'll practice from home and researchers will check if it helps your hearing, thinking, and everyday conversations.
This study looks at how people with healthy hearing or hearing loss understand speech in different listening environments. You might join if you have normal hearing, mild hearing loss, or use a cochlear implant, and are a competent adult English speaker.
