Abstract : Perpustakaan Tuanku Bainun
The research examined the frequency of hearing loss among college students in Johor via the use of pure tone audiometry (PTA) screening tests. The study included a sample of 30 participants between the ages of 18 and 35, with 46.67% of them using personal listening devices (PLDs) for educational reasons. The Air Conduction (AC) and Bone Conduction (BC) tests were used to evaluate the different types and levels of hearing impairment by using Audiometer, model Interacoustic AD629. This research used one (1) decibel (dB) increment for the up-and-down hearing threshold for both AC and BC measurements. The participants were categorized into two groups: the experimental group, which altered noise thresholds and daily use, and the control group, which kept their usual use of PLDs. The findings indicated that 73.33% of young adults use PLDs, with earphones being the predominant preference. Approximately 30% of the whole amount is comprised of cellphones and laptops. A substantial number of participants use them while sleeping, probably improving hearing sharpness and thresholds in young individuals. The study's findings were assessed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) and paired t-tests. The findings indicated that there were no significant changes in the air-bone gap for both ears in the control group at frequencies of 1500 Hz and 2000 Hz. Nevertheless, significant changes were noted at frequencies of 250 Hz, 500 Hz, 3000 Hz, and 4000 Hz, but there were no substantial variations in auditory perception before or after 1500 Hz. The study determined that the use of PLDs without regulating the time and volume settings may lead to auditory impairment and the emergence of Noise-Induced Hearing Loss (NIHL). v
