Help Advance Research on Music Enjoyment and Hearing Loss

Are you or someone you know interested in how hearing loss affects the enjoyment of music? A research team at Johns Hopkins University is conducting a study to explore this important topic. Led by Dr. Alexander Chern, the study aims to identify the factors that contribute to music enjoyment for people with hearing loss, aiming to improve how music is heard for these individuals.

How You Can Participate:

  • Survey: A short, 10-15-minute online survey about your hearing and music background.
  • Interview: Some participants will be invited to take part in a 40-minute interview to discuss in more detail what music enjoyment means to them.

Your participation can help improve music listening for those with hearing loss and contribute to advancing hearing aid and cochlear implant technology.
