Key, Alexandra P.; Gustafson, Samantha J.; Rentmeester, Lindsey; Hornsby, Benjamin W. Y.; Bess, Fred H. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2017
Purpose: Fatigue related to speech processing is an understudied area that may have significant negative effects, especially in children who spend the majority of their school days listening to classroom instruction. Method: This study examined the feasibility of using auditory P300 responses and behavioral indices (lapses of attention and…

Gustafson, Samantha J.; Key, Alexandra P.; Hornsby, Benjamin W. Y.; Bess, Fred H. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2018
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine fatigue associated with sustained and effortful speech-processing in children with mild to moderately severe hearing loss. Method: We used auditory P300 responses, subjective reports, and behavioral indices (response time, lapses of attention) to measure fatigue resulting from sustained…

Bess, Fred H.; Gustafson, Samantha J.; Hornsby, Benjamin W. Y. – Grantee Submission, 2014
Teachers and parents have long believed that children with hearing loss (CHL) are at increased risk for fatigue. CHL may be physically and mentally "worn out" as a result of focusing so intently on a teacher's speech and on conversations with other students. Moreover, increased listening effort, stress, and subsequent fatigue could…

Bess, Fred H.; Gustafson, Samantha J.; Corbett, Blythe A.; Lambert, E. Warren; Camarata, Stephen M.; Hornsby, Benjamin W. Y. – Grantee Submission, 2016
Objectives: It has long been speculated that effortful listening places children with hearing loss at risk for fatigue. School-age children with hearing loss experiencing cumulative stress and listening fatigue on a daily basis might undergo dysregulation of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis activity resulting in elevated or flattened…

Hornsby, Benjamin W. Y.; Gustafson, Samantha J.; Lancaster, Hope; Cho, Sun-Joo; Camarata, Stephen; Bess, Fred H. – Grantee Submission, 2017
Purpose: The primary purposes of this study were to examine the effects of hearing loss and respondent type (self- vs. parent-proxy report) on subjective fatigue in children. We also examined associations between child-specific factors and fatigue ratings. Method: Subjective fatigue was assessed using the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory…
