The problem
Intervention: Family rehabilitation participation programmes for children using hearing aids or cochlear implants
Who it was tested with: Fifty preschool children (and parent-child dyads) using hearing aids or cochlear implants.
Experience from people who deliver programmes: stories, case studies and lessons learned. Valuable for understanding how and why, and for spotting what to test next, but not a measure of effect.
"Fifty parent-child dyads participated in this cross-sectional study. Parents completed the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, the Family Rehabilitation Participation Form, and the Parents' Evaluation of Aural/Oral Performance of Children (PEACH) questionnaire. Children were assessed using the Turkish Early Language Development Test." The study measured associations among multiple variables in a single time point without a control group or intervention testing.
Cross-sectional design prevents causal inference. Sample size of 50 is small. The study relies partly on parent-reported outcomes (PEACH) which may reflect parental perception rather than objective performance. Device data logging did not independently predict outcomes in exploratory models.
