环境声音可以提供有关周围活动的重要信息，但识别声音对于聋人和听力困难（DHH）个体来说可能具有挑战性。先前的工作已经研究了DHH用户对各种声音感知方法的偏好。然而，观察到这些偏好随着沿着一些人口统计学因素而变化。因此，在这项研究中，我们调查的DHH用户的一个特定群体的偏好：当前的辅助听力设备用户。通过对38名参与者的调查，我们调查了他们对声音感知应用的挑战和要求，以及哪种类型的声音和声音的哪些方面对他们来说很重要。我们发现，助听器的使用者仍然经常错过声音，并依赖其他人来获取有关它们的信息。与会者指出，对不同类型声音的感知的重要性因环境和声音感知技术的形式因素而异。与先前的工作一致，与会者报告说，声音的位置和紧迫性以及技术对识别声音的信心都很重要。
Environmental sounds can provide important information about surrounding activity, yet recognizing sounds can be challenging for Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing (DHH) individuals. Prior work has examined the preferences of DHH users for various sound-awareness methods. However, these preferences have been observed to vary along some demographic factors. Thus, in this study we investigate the preferences of a specific group of DHH users: current assistive listening devices users. Through a survey of 38 participants, we investigated their challenges and requirements for sound-awareness applications, as well as which type of sounds and what aspects of the sounds are of importance to them. We found that users of assistive listening devices still often miss sounds and rely on other people to obtain information about them. Participants indicated that the importance of awareness of different types of sounds varied according to the environment and the form factor of the sound-awareness technology. Congruent with prior work, participants reported that the location and urgency of the sound were of importance, as well as the confidence of the technology in its identification of that sound.
