Abstract

The purpose of this article is to introduce and provide an overview of the 3 articles presented in the invited forum "The Brain and Hearing Aids." The main ideas of the articles presented by the 3 panelists are identified, and a commentary is provided to synthesize the ideas.

New approaches to predicting, designing, and evaluating technological and behavioral interventions will need to consider the brain and not just the ears of listeners.
