Self-Reported Hearing Loss and Pure Tone Audiometry for Screening in Primary Health Care Clinics
TLDR
While self-report of hearing loss is an easy and time-efficient screening method to use at primary health care clinics, its accuracy may be limited when used in isolation and it may not be sufficiently sensitive to detect hearing loss.Abstract:
Objective: To evaluate the performance of self-reported hearing loss alone and in combination with pure tone audiometry screening in primary health care clinics in South Africa. Design: Nonprobabil...read more

Comparison of Self-reported Measures of Hearing With an Objective Audiometric Measure in Adults in the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing
TL;DR: In this cross-sectional study of 9666 participants in the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing, self-report measures of hearing had limited accuracy and were not sufficiently sensitive to detect hearing loss.

Unperceived hearing loss among Canadians aged 40 to 79.
TL;DR: Regular screening has been proposed to help raise awareness about hearing loss and to promote earlier detection and intervention that may ultimately improve the quality of life of those experiencing diminished hearing acuity.

Validity of hearing screening using hearTest smartphone-based audiometry: performance evaluation of different response modes.
TL;DR: Hearing screening using hearTest smartphone-based audiometry is accurate for the identification of both disabling hearing loss and any level of hearing loss in adults and children in the self-test response mode.
