No text entered.

Pre-Assignment Details
Significant events and approaches for the overall study following participant enrollment, but prior to group assignment
Three subjects were consented but not enrolled into the study because they did not meet the inclusion criteria. One subject withdrew from the study after enrollment but prior to randomization.

Reporting Groups
  Description
Standard-of-Care

The "standard-of-care" control group will review and practice with the audiologist content such as: 1) information on hearing-aid batteries and how to change them, 2) cleaning/daily care of the hearing aids, and 3) inserting and removing the hearing aids.

Standard-of-Care: the standard of care in audiologic practice
Treatment

The treatment group, on the other hand, will use a motivational tool (exploring importance) in a manner that is consistent with the spirit of motivational interviewing.

Treatment: motivational interviewing
