...That is, hearing aids are extremely effective in cases of conductive hearing loss caused by chronic otitis media, but in cases of sensorineural hearing loss caused by damage to the inner ear, there is a retraction phenomenon in which sounds resonate too loudly, so automatic volume control devices and sound quality adjustment devices that can change the frequency characteristics of the output are built in to deal with this. In addition to being small and lightweight, eyeglass-type, behind-the-ear, and in-ear hearing aids have the advantage of being able to take advantage of the shadow effect of the skull (the phenomenon in which the skull casts a shadow on high-frequency sounds, making sounds from one ear sound quieter at the other ear. This allows the direction of the sound source to be determined), but they are prone to feedback because the microphone is close to the earphones. *Some of the terminology explanations that refer to the "shadow effect" are listed below.

…すなわち,慢性中耳炎などによる伝音性難聴の場合には補聴器はきわめて有効に作動するが,内耳が障害された感音性難聴の場合には音が大きく響いて困るというレクルートメント現象を伴うために,これに対処した自動音量制御装置や出力の周波数特性が変化できる音質調整装置が組み込まれている。眼鏡型,耳掛け型,挿耳型補聴器は小型軽量であるという点のほかに,マイクロホンが装用者の耳の位置にあるために頭蓋の陰影効果(高い周波数の音の場合,頭蓋が影となって,一方からの音が他方の耳には小さく聞こえる現象。これによって音源の方向を知ることができる)などを利用できる利点があるが,マイクロホンとイアホンの距離が近いためにハウリングを起こしやすい。… ※「陰影効果」について言及している用語解説の一部を掲載しています。 出典|株式会社平凡社世界大百科事典 第2版について | 情報 |
