The purpose of this survey and follow-up case-control study was to estimate the prevalence of minimal hearing loss in school-age children and to determine whether children with minimal hearing loss experienced any psychoeducational or functional complications. Third-, sixth-, ninth-, and eleventh-grade children were evaluated for hearing threshold levels and type of hearing loss, as well as middle ear function and associated abnormalities. The data include results from acoustic otoscope, diagnostic immittance, and GSI-37 auto tymp tests. The case-control data contain scores from the Comprehensive Tests of Basic Skills, scores from the Revised Behavior Problem Checklist, and other variables.

Time period: 1985-01-01--1987-01-01
The goal of this study was to explore the relationship between speech and hearing disorders in children, and to isolate risk factors predisposing children for speech or hearing problems. The survey, a component of a larger project designed to raise the consciousness of pediatricians regarding the relationship between speech and hearing disorders, includes information on the age, sex, number of siblings at home, and position of the child in the families. Also available is information on parents' ages, occupations, and education, as well as data on pregnancy and delivery history, health history, and results of the current physical examination of the child.
