We want to understand the relationship betweem hearing, cognition and fitness in older adults with hearing loss. Previous studies have looked at how much a clinical hearing test, called an audiogram, improves following completion of a fitness program. However, nobody has measured if this improvement translates into real-world hearing tasks like hearing in noise.
