SUMMARY:BAA Journal Club with the University of Southampton
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the third of our 2026 Journal Clubs with students from the University of Southampton. \nPresenters: Jasmin Bain\, Daisy Collas\, Jennifer Mansbridge\, Charlotte Dennett \nArticle for discussion: Adult client perspectives of barriers and facilitators to successfully communicating about listening needs and concerns during audiology appointments: a qualitative study \nAuthors: Zoe McNeice\, Dani Tomlin\, Barbra Timmer\, Camille E. Short & Karyn Galvin  \nThis paper investigates adult clients’ perspectives on the barriers and facilitators they experience when communicating about their listening needs and concerns with their audiologist during appointments. Through qualitative interviews with adults who have attended audiology consultations\, it identifies key factors\, such as the audiologist’s communication style\, demonstration of understanding\, therapeutic relationship\, clients’ awareness and personality\, and clinic operational practices\, that influence whether clients feel able to express their listening difficulties and concerns effectively.
