Main Outcome Measures:
We did data entry and analysis using IBM SPSS Statistics, version 23
(IBM Corp.). We carried out descriptive statistical analysis to obtain
the frequencies, mean and standard deviation (S.D). We applied Chi
square test and Fischer exact test to find the association of
electroacoustic device use with independent variables like gender and
year of study. We utilized Pearson correlation to find the association
between hearing loss and electroacoustic device usage. We also employed
independent t test to compare the means at octave frequencies
among male and female students. We kept p value <0.05
and 95% CI as level of statistical significance. We described our
findings using STROBE reporting guidelines.
