Despite the benefits of early newborn hearing screening and early intervention programs for children with hearing loss, most still experience academic and social challenges at school. This is partly due to ongoing listening effort, leading to communicative breakdown. This project aims to identify the locus of the communicative challenges these children face during daily discourse interactions. The outcomes will identify which levels of language are most compromised and will inform future interventions to reduce children’s listening effort. This will be undertaken by bringing together researchers in basic science with hearing service providers, parents and industry, providing an innovative model for solving multidisciplinary challenges.

尽管新生儿早期听力筛查和听力损失儿童早期干预计划有好处，但大多数人在学校仍然面临学术和社会挑战。这部分是由于持续的倾听努力，导致沟通障碍。本项目旨在确定这些儿童在日常话语互动中面临的交际挑战的根源。研究结果将确定哪些语言水平受损最严重，并为未来的干预措施提供信息，以减少儿童的听力努力。这将通过将基础科学研究人员与听力服务提供者、家长和行业聚集在一起，为解决多学科挑战提供创新模式来实现。
