@JackAHolman @RouKat @PaulRadomskij @Hearing_balance @AnnMarieDicki12 @DavidJay1982 @SarahHughesSLT @MFTaudiology @ManCAD_UoM @evidENT_UCL @UCLEarInstitute @BSAudiology1 If I may jump on the Holman train, there's also the WHO-DAS 2.0 (short vers.) & SF12 for general, validated QoL, but would always mix in a PROM as closely related to the intervention as possible (despite "my balance has improved but my QoL hasn't" being said by no one ever)

Heigh Ho! We took our newly refurbished Glasgow Benefit Inventory out for a test drive, and, b'golly, were pleasantly surprised by its sensitivity to non-surgical interventions, including good ol' hearing aids. @The_MRC @CSO_Scotland #somanyboxplots

@kelly_m_miles @timothybeechey @AV_SP @ASA_JASA [overlong pause dusting off old scripts...] Here's conversational speech levels at transition from quietest to louder bkgd. noise levels averaged across dyads. It's all a bit higgledy-piggledy (SI unit) but speech level initially does increase uniformly for approx. 850 ms.

@kelly_m_miles @timothybeechey @AV_SP @ASA_JASA Hiya! Short answer: no; long answer: maybe. In our previous conversation design (https://t.co/MBahlS2bnv), we had many rather sudden changes in bkgd noise. Did some analyses just prior/after these changes, but dinnae make the final cut. Perhaps that's not the AM you're after...

Only up for another day, but if anyone needs a class demo on how NOT to design a q'naire, the UK BEIS have made a doozy: https://t.co/gl5eKEfMDc How many biases can you find? How will the q'naire fulfil the authors' blatant aims regardless of results? Crivvens!

What the world needs now is love, sweet love... And better clinical trials of hearing. Can't really help with the sweet love, but with the swell folk at @ManCAD_UoM, can offer some wee perspective on building a better clinical trial. @UoNHearSci @CSO_Scotland @The_MRC
