{"title":"Third-Party Disability in Spouses of Older People with Hearing Impairment","authors":"Nerina Scarinci, L. Hickson, L. Worrall","doi":"10.1044/ARII18.1.3","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1044/ARII18.1.3","url":null,"abstract":"Hearing impairment is the most common communication disability in older people. The wide-ranging impact of hearing impairment on communication means that not only does the person with hearing impairment experience the consequences but also his or her frequent communication partners. This thesis investigates the impact of hearing impairment on spouses and uses the World Health Organization’s term “third-party disability.” Third-party disability is defined as the impairments, activity limitations, and participation restrictions experienced by the family due to the health condition of their significant other, and was identified by the World Health Organization as an area for future development and application of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF). Despite a number of studies previously published on the effect of hearing impairment on family members, including younger couples and carers, there remain substantial gaps in knowledge and understanding of the difficulties specifically relating to older people and factors associated with third-party hearing disability. This thesis focuses on the third-party disability experienced by normally hearing spouses (termed the “spouses” in this thesis) of older people with hearing impairment (termed the “partners” in this thesis). To add empirical data to the body of research, this series of studies first explored the lived experience of spouses of older people with hearing impairment in a qualitative study, then identified the ICF domains and categories that described third-party hearing disability, described the extent of third-party hearing disability in this population, modelled the contribution of factors to third-party hearing disability, and developed and psychometrically tested a scale to measure the third-party disability of spouses of older people with hearing impairment. Studies conducted within this thesis were therefore completed in two phases. Ten spouses of older people with hearing impairment participated in the first qualitative phase, consisting of semi-structured in-depth interviews. Results of this study showed that spouses experience a number of effects as a result of their partners’ hearing impairment including: (1) the broad ranging effects of the hearing impairment on the spouses’ everyday lives; (2) the spouses’ need to constantly adapt to their partners’ hearing impairment; (3) the effect of acceptance of the hearing impairment on the spouse; and (4) the impact of ageing and retirement. Findings were then linked to the ICF to identify the most typical and relevant domains and categories of the ICF for spouses of older people with hearing impairment. The majority of themes were able to be linked to the ICF, with most linking to codes in the activities and participation component. A number of contextual factors were also identified that influenced the spouses’ third-party disability. In the second phase, a further 100 older couples affected by heari","PeriodicalId":145171,"journal":{"name":"Perspectives on Aural Rehabilitation and Its Instrumentation","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122217217","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For young children with hearing impairments, there is a mismatch between the type of talker most commonly used in clinical speech tests and the type(s) of talker(s) most commonly heard in everyday situations. Although young children are exposed primarily to adult females' and children’s speech (including their own), many clinical tests consist of speech materials recorded by adult males. Since speech acoustics vary significantly with gender and age of the talker, the results of clinical speech tests may be a poor estimate of a hearing impaired children’s actual speech understanding in everyday situations. These issues may have clinical implications for the evaluation and fitting of hearing aids, and programming of cochlear implants.","PeriodicalId":145171,"journal":{"name":"Perspectives on Aural Rehabilitation and Its Instrumentation","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131149944","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two programs at the University of Texas at Dallas, the Summer Intensive Auditory Rehabilitation Conference (SIARC) and the camp for Communication Habilitation via Audition for Teens (Camp CHAT), are designed to immerse both audiology and speech-language pathology students into the rehabilitative process of adults and teens with hearing loss. SIARC is designed for couples and includes a blend of service delivery, student training, and community awareness that occurs over a 5-day period in the clinic and the community. Camp CHAT is designed for teens with hearing loss and their parents who engage in fun activities to learn communication techniques while trying new technology at a weekend retreat center. Participant feedback suggests that these programs have several far-reaching benefits.

It provides a common framework for describing consequences of health conditions and specifically for understanding the dimensions of health and functioning. The ICF is particularly relevant for rehabilitation sciences because the health conditions of people seeking rehabilitation services are typically chronic and the associated impairments cannot be cured. The present article highlights some key differences between a curative and a rehabilitative approach to health services. Then, the components of the IFC are defined, described, and illustrated. The main characteristics of the classification system are outlined. Finally, some important features associated with the use of the ICF as a conceptual framework for clinical services in rehabilitative audiology are presented.","PeriodicalId":145171,"journal":{"name":"Perspectives on Aural Rehabilitation and Its Instrumentation","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130100356","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, mainstream educational placements are increasing for this population. Since success in the mainstream is largely dependent upon development of oral communication skills, it is imperative that professionals working with these children have competence in auditory-oral methodology. The present study investigated professionals' perceptions of preparedness to develop and implement auditory-oral programs. Professionals using an auditory-oral approach were asked about their perceived levels of knowledge and skills, pre-service training, and on-the-job factors that contributed to their competence to provide auditory-oral programs to children who are deaf. Classification tables, chi-square, and qualitative analyses were used to determine professionals' perceptions of preparedness and to identify significant differences among professional groups (i.e., speech-language pathol...","PeriodicalId":145171,"journal":{"name":"Perspectives on Aural Rehabilitation and Its Instrumentation","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126062634","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
