Development of a New Zealand Version of the Digit Triplet Test (DTT)

Hello to everyone,

I am now in my second year of study towards my Masters of Audiology and I am enjoying it very much.

I am now ready to start the first part of my study and need your help. The purpose of this phase of the study is to determine the degree of difficulty for each spoken number that forms part of the DTT.

I need 40 participants with Normal hearing – that tends, but not always, to be anyone in the age group of 21 – 40 years. So I am asking for your help in finding people to help in this stage of my study.

Maybe it could be you or a family member or friend. I will be providing a Free Hearing Screening test as part of the testing process.

In the second part of the study, I will be needing people of any age and any hearing status so don’t worry you can participate and help out when I get to that stage of the study.

Attached is a detail explanation of what is involved in Part A of the study. It will take approx 45 mins. The testing is done in the Research Lab located in Room 801of the Rutherford Building (8th Floor).

I can be contacted on 021 159 7634 or email me at hoppinkiwi@hotmail.com to set up an appointment.

Many thanks for your support

Cheers
Sharon
