Prioritizing the target audience for a hearing awareness campaign in Australia using the Tarpare model
Hearing loss affects one in six Australians, and it is estimated that around one-third of all hearing loss is preventable. Over the past decade, there have been repeated calls for the development of a national campaign in Australia, aimed at raising the public’s awareness of hearing health. We identified six target groups either at risk of developing hearing loss, vulnerable to poor outcomes as a result of untreated hearing loss, or lacking aware…
The Noise (Non-Occupational Incidents, Situations and Events) Database
This paper describes the development of the NOISE (Non-Occupational Incidents, Situations and Events) Database. The NOISE database currently contains 536 separate leisure activities and events, including noise level measurements, (LAeq and LCpeak), and detailed information about the circumstances of each event. The data are organized into seven categories, in which high-noise events and activities can be identified. Thirty-five percent of events …
A Qualitative Study of Earplug Use as a Health Behavior
The use of earplugs in loud music venues is confined to a small minority who wish to avoid hearing damage from excessive noise exposure. Using the framework of the health belief model (HBM), structured interviews were held with 20 earplug-wearing clubbers. Qualitative analysis revealed the HBM constructs relevant to understanding this group's motivation to protect their hearing. Personal experience of noise injury symptoms was the most common cue…
Bilingualism and the relationship between perception and production
This study investigates two issues: the effect of bilingualism(Greek/AustralianEnglish) on speakers' ability to perceive unfamiliar speech contrasts (in this case Thai); and whether speakers' speech productions bear any relationship to their speech perception. Thai has three bilabial stop contrasts in word-initial position, voiced /b/,voiceless /p/ and voiceless aspirated /p h /. English and Greek both have two-way voicing distinctions, voiced /b…
