dc.description.abstractHearing loss is a prevalent and often undertreated condition significantly affecting quality of life across social, emotional, and cognitive domains. Despite advancements in hearing health care, many individuals who could benefit from hearing aids either delay seeking help or do not adopt rehabilitation strategies including hearing devices. This may be due to various audiological and non-audiological factors influencing help-seeking behavior and the decision to take up hearing aids.
