“…This finding goes in line with a study done by Schmucker et al, (2019) (30) , who observed that, the majority (80.9%) of children were interested with academic education and adapted with their disease. This result is contradicted with Yeshoda et al, (2020) (31) , who revealed that, the majority (84.6%) of children didn't adapt with hearing loss.…”

Background: Hearing impairment is the most common disabilities that have negative impact on the quality of life of affected children and their families. The aim of this study was to: assess parents' perception level of quality of life of their elementary school children with hearing impairment using hearing aids. Subjects and method: Study design: A descriptive study design was utilized in this study. Study settings: This study was conducted in audiology out-patient clinic of the School Health Insurance Hospital at Tanta City. Study subjects: A convenient sampling of 150 of elementary school students who diagnosed with hearing impairment using hearing aids and their parents which constitute 150 were included in the study. Tool of data collection: one tool was used by the researcher to collect the necessary data. Tool I: A structured interview schedule: this tool included five parts: Part (1): Socio-demographic characteristics of the students and their parents. Part (2): History of hearing impairment and using hearing aids. Part (3): History of the academic achievement of the students. Part (4): Children using hearing devices quality of life. Part (5): Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory. Results: about half (47.3%) of the child's performance after fitting of hearing aids was fair, while less than half (42.7%) of them had good, less than two thirds (61.3%) of the studied school children' parents had a fair score regarding quality of life and nearly one fifth (20.0% and 18.7% respectively) of the studied school children' parents had a good and poor score. Also there was a highly significant positive correlation between levels of pediatric quality of life inventory of the studied school children and the levels of the studied school children parents of their children using hearing device quality of life as (p=0.000) and (r=0.407). Conclusion: It can be concluded that, less than two thirds of studied school children parents had a fair score according to their children using hearing devices quality of life. Recommendations: It was recommended that, written instructions about hearing aids in the form of booklets or brochures should be provided to each child with hearing impairment using hearing aids and their parents in order to encourage them in effective adherence to the plan of care.

“…These visual cues provide a parallel and complementary informational channel that influences listeners judgements of deception (King et al, 2020), which may be relied upon to a increasing degrees with greater hearing-impairment (Picou et al, 2018) or in noisy environments (Chatterjee et al, 2015). These difficulties present during early childhood but may be mitigated by explicit training (Yeshoda et al, 2020). Similar cues drive emotional expression in music and are likewise not easily accessible to hearing aid users (Chasin & Russo, 2004).…”

“…People with hearing impairments may have differing access to these acoustical cues to the extent that hearing aids relay some cues more reliably than others. For example, people with hearing impairment have greater difficulty decoding a speaker's emotional state than do their peers with normal hearing (Chatterjee et al, 2015;Most & Aviner, 2009;Yeshoda et al, 2020). However, there is some evidence to suggest that people with hearing impairments can detect dishonest speech, though they may misidentify aspects of the speaker's motivation that distinguish between selfish lies, white lies, and irony (González-Cuenca & Linero, 2020).…”

Purpose: Communication is as much persuasion as it is the transfer of information. This creates a tension between the interests of the speaker and those of the listener, as dishonest speakers naturally attempt to hide deceptive speech and listeners are faced with the challenge of sorting truths from lies. Listeners with hearing impairment in particular may have differing levels of access to the acoustical cues that give away deceptive speech. A greater tendency toward speech pauses has been hypothesized to result from the cognitive demands of lying convincingly. Higher vocal pitch has also been hypothesized to mark the increased anxiety of a dishonest speaker. Method: Listeners with or without hearing impairments heard short utterances from natural conversations, some of which had been digitally manipulated to contain either increased pausing or raised vocal pitch. Listeners were asked to guess whether each statement was a lie in a two-alternative forced-choice task. Participants were also asked explicitly which cues they believed had influenced their decisions. Results: Statements were more likely to be perceived as a lie when they contained pauses, but not when vocal pitch was raised. This pattern held regardless of hearing ability. In contrast, both groups of listeners self-reported using vocal pitch cues to identify deceptive statements, though at lower rates than pauses. Conclusions: Listeners may have only partial awareness of the cues that influence their impression of dishonesty. Listeners with hearing impairment may place greater weight on acoustical cues according to the differing degrees of access provided by hearing aids.

“…However, listeners with hearing impairments may have more difficulty recognizing emotions from vocal cues (Christensen et al, 2019), and instead rely on visual cues such as facial expressions and body language (Hopyan-Misakyan et al, 2009;Most & Aviner, 2009;Waaramaa et al, 2018), particularly with greater degrees of hearing-impairment (Picou et al, 2018) or in noisy environments (Chatterjee et al, 2015). These difficulties present during early childhood but may be mitigated by explicit training (Yeshoda et al, 2020).
