Joshua Alexander, Associate Professor of SLHA will speak on “Evaluating the Efficacy of Music Programs in Hearing Aids" on Thursday, February 2, at 10:30 a.m. in LYLE 1150 and via Zoom.

Hearing aid processing of music is much less thoroughly researched than hearing aid processing of speech.  This presentation will report on a study using normal-hearing listeners that evaluated the efficacy of programs specifically designed for music listening in state-of-the-art hearing aids.  In addition, an analysis of signal processing and acoustic features relating to the results will be presented. Following this presentation, attendees will be able to: 1) Describe how hearing aids may negatively impact music perception;   2) Describe key features of real or hypothetical music programs for hearing aids; 3) Describe the efficacy of current music programs in hearing aids.
