Adjustment to Hearing Impairment II

Audiological and Demographic Correlates

To study adjustment to hearing impairment, clinical records from a five-center consortium (N=1,008) were used to create a heterogeneous clinical database with results of audiometric tests, demographic and case history information, and responses to the Communication Profile for the Hearing Impaired (CPHI; Demorest & Erdman, 1986, 1987). Normative findings have been described previously (Erdman & Demorest, 1998). Hierarchical regression analyses revealed that audiometric variables were moderately correlated with communication performance, behavioral strategies, and personal adjustment. With hearing impairment controlled statistically, age and education effects were evident in many areas of adjustment; correlations between adjustment and gender were relatively weak; and marital status, employment status, and race/ethnicity were rarely significant correlates.

KEY WORDS: CPHI, hearing impairment, audiologic rehabilitation, psychosocial adjustment, demographics
