Study conduct
GROUP B
Participants were required to attend three sessions within a 4-week period. During session one, a demographic questionnaire was completed, the MoCA-HI cognitive assessment was performed and immediately followed by the generation of two MAPs, one objective eSRT-based MAP and subjective psychophysical-based MAP. Both MAPs were de-identified and blinded from participant and researcher responsible for speech assessments. Participants in Group A were fit with their subjective psychophysical-based MAP. Participants in Group B were fit with their Objective eSRT-based MAP. Both groups trialled given MAP for a two-week period [Participants were given alternate MAP to trial for an additional two-week period (Group A: Psychophysical-based MAP, Group B: eSRT-based MAP). During session three, participants completed the HISQUI and speech test battery using the second trial MAP. Following study completion, participants had their original MAP returned.
