Abstract
Studies of geriatric, profoundly deaf, and syndromic hearing-loss populations demonstrate the significant negative consequences of hearing loss including poorer cognitive function, difficulties in social interactions, and increased risk of psychiatric disorders. To date, there are several empirical studies assessing the long-term effects of communication issues on physiological, psychological, and socioemotional problems in 22q11.2DS. However, less is known about how hearing loss directly and indirectly affects them in relation to stress, attention, mood, and behavioral problems.
