Problems of the hearing impaired in Poland.

Auditory disability was studied in a group of 140 Polish hearing aid candidates using an oral presentation of the problem questionnaire of Barcham and Stephens (1980). The overall pattern of problems reported by Polish hearing-impaired patients was similar to that found among English respondents. Some difference in the prevalence of the problems emerged which may result from the different socio-economic situations in the two countries.

Self-reported benefits of hearing aids by the hearing impaired.

Benefits of hearing aids were studied in a group of 169 patients using an open-ended self-report approach. The overall pattern of benefits was qualitatively similar to the pattern of complaints reported by candidates for hearing aids (Golabek et al., 1988). The response pattern was related to the age and work of the hearing aid users, to the level of the hearing loss in the better ear and to the amount of use of the hearing aid.

Some tuning fork tests revisited.

The Weber, Rinne and Bing tests were examined in normally hearing and hearing impaired subjects, using different techniques. The Weber test was found to be most sensitive and reliable with the tuning fork stem placed on the upper incisors. The Rinne tests showed a transition point from Rinne positive to negative at 19 dB when performed using the normal loudness comparison technique and at 24 dB with a threshold comparison technique. The Bing test with the tuning fork placed either on the mastoid or the vertex showed a transition point from Bing positive to negative at approximately 9 dB air-bone gap.
