为了获得有关听力障碍及其潜在预测因素的调整数据，成立了一个由五个听力学诊所组成的联盟。回顾了19-27个月的临床记录，并编辑了一个数据库（N= 1，008），该数据库包含标准听力测试结果、人口统计学和病例历史信息以及对听力受损者交流概况的反应（CPHI;德莫雷斯特和埃德曼，1986，1987）。诊所人群在听力测量、性别、种族/民族、教育水平、就业、婚姻和助听器状态以及CPHI特征上存在差异，但在年龄上没有差异。CPHI量表的内部一致性高于德莫雷斯特和Erdman（1987）的报告，沟通绩效量表的测量标准误较小。该联盟数据库的异质性足以提供适用于广泛的当地临床人群的规范性数据，并支持对听力损害调整相关性的研究（见Erdman &德莫雷斯特，1998）。
To obtain data on adjustment to hearing impairment and its potential predictors, a consortium of five audiology clinics was established. clinical records generated over 19–27 months were reviewed, and a database (N=1,008) was compiled that contained standard audiometric test results, demographic and case history information, and responses to the Communication Profile for the Hearing Impaired (CPHI; Demorest & Erdman, 1986, 1987). Clinic populations differed on audiometric measures, gender, race/ethnicity, educational level, employment, marital, and hearing aid status, and on CPHI profiles, but not on age. Internal consistency of CPHI scales was higher than reported by Demorest and Erdman (1987), and standard errors of measurement were smaller for Communication Performance scales. The consortium database is sufficiently heterogeneous to provide normative data applicable to a wide range of local clinical populations and to support investigation of the correlates of adjustment to hearing impairment (see Erdman & Demorest, 1998).
