MI-HAT Trial Summary
This trial will test the feasibility and effectiveness of an 8-week group MI intervention for people with hearing loss.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 who are new to using hearing aids and have a certain level of hearing loss in one or both ears. They must understand English as the motivational interviewing and questionnaires will be in this language. People with previous hearing aid experience, inconsistent hearing tests, or medical issues preventing hearing aid use cannot join.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing whether motivational interviewing (MI), a type of counseling that encourages behavior change, can increase the use of hearing aids among new users. It aims to address fears and shame associated with wearing aids by fostering motivation.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since MI involves counseling without medications or invasive procedures, there aren't typical side effects like those seen with drugs or surgery. However, participants may experience emotional discomfort discussing personal challenges related to their hearing loss.
