Welcome to the Child Hearing Lab, or in short, the Chear Lab! We are interested in understanding how children process different features of speech, how hearing loss and the use of devices like hearing aids influences speech processing during childhood. Our methods typically entail the use of electroencephalography (EEG) and behavioural (listening) tasks.
