- | The Hearing Handicap Inventory for Adults (HHIA) is a 25-item self-assessment scale composed of two subscales (emotional and social/situational) that aims to assess the presence of hearing loss and its impact on the quality of life ([[sections|section]]:[[wellbeing & subjective health]]). It is a modification of the Hearing Handicap Inventory for the Elderly (HHIE).\\ | + | The Hearing Handicap Inventory for Adults - screening version (HHIA-S) and the Hearing Handicap Inventory for the Elderly - screening version (HHIE-S) are both 10-item self-assessment scales that aim to assess the presence of hearing loss and its impact on the quality of life ([[sections|section]]: [[wellbeing & subjective health]]). They are the shorter versions of the 25-item HHIA and HHIE((Newman, CW et al. (1991) Test-Retest Reliability of the Hearing Handicap Inventory for Adults. Ear and Hearing 12(5); 355-357))((Liechtenstein MJ et al. (1988) Validation of screening tools for identifying hearing-impaired elderly in primary care. JAMA 259(19):2875-2878))\\ |

- | The 10-item screening version of the HHIA was used in Lifelines.\\ | + | The Lifelines HHIA/E questionnaire contains 12 items, which together cover the partly overlapping 10-item screening versions of the HHIA and HHIE. There are 5 fully overlapping emotional items (2a/b/e/i/k) plus 5 partly overlapping age-dependent social/situational items (HHIA: 2d/f/h/j/l; HHIE: 2c/f/g/j/l).\\ |
- | Participants were asked to choose between three answers for each of the 10 questions: yes (4 points), no (0 points), or sometimes (2 points).\\ | + | Participants were asked to indicate if the description in the item was applicable to their life: yes (4 points), no (0 points), or sometimes (2 points). Depending on the age group (adult or elderly), the total score of the 10 HHIA/HHIE items can be interpreted as follows: |
- | Interpreting the Raw Score: | + | * 0-8 = no self-perceived handicap |
- | * 0–8 = 13% probability of hearing impairment (no handicap) | + | * 10 to 24 = mild to moderate handicap |
- | * 10–24 = 50% probability of hearing impairment (mild-moderate handicap) | + | * 26 to 40 = severe handicap |
- | * 26–40 = 84% probabililty of hearing impairment (severe handicap) | + | |
+ | Note that one basic question about potential hearing problems (1) was added, to determine if participants should fill in the HHIA/E-S.\\ | ||
