Who might be able to join this trial:
- You are between 18–35 years old with normal hearing, OR between 60–80 years old with normal hearing, OR between 60–80 years old with a moderate hearing loss in both ears.
- If you have normal hearing, your hearing test results must fall within a specific healthy range at various sound frequencies (confirm with trial site for exact numbers).
- If you have hearing loss, it must affect both ears similarly and be caused by inner ear or nerve-related issues (not a blockage or structural problem), within a specific moderate range of severity.
- If you have hearing loss, you are either already using hearing aids or your hearing loss level means you could benefit from them.
- You speak English fluently, as the speech tests in this study are conducted in English.
- You score above 22 on a standard memory and thinking assessment called the MoCA, showing that your thinking and memory skills are within a range that allows you to complete the study tasks.
- The study aims to include roughly equal numbers of male and female participants.
