Özet:

 Objectıves: The objective of this study was to assess the correlation between the duration of device usage in individuals who use hearing aids and their level of social responsibility. Materıals and Methods: A total of 58 individuals with hearing loss, 27 women and 31 men, included in the study group, and a total of 71 individuals with normal hearing, 37 women and 34 men, who formed the control group for which the data would be compared, participated in the study. Demographic Information Form, Individual Social Responsibility Scale and the Turkish Version of the International Hearing Aids Evaluation Inventory were used for the study group through a web-based questionnaire. Results: There was an absence of statistically significant disparity observed in the Individual Social Responsibility Scale scores between individuals with hearing loss and those with normal hearing. The study found that individuals with hearing loss had considerably higher ratings on the Individual Social Responsibility Scale compared to individuals without hearing loss, specifically among the working population. Conclusion: There is a need to enhance the level of awareness among those who have hearing loss regarding the consequences of their condition, as well as their overall pleasure with hearing aids. The findings of this study make a valuable scholarly contribution by serving as a pioneering and instructive resource on the utilization of hearing aids and the notion of individual social responsibility. Moreover, these results will serve as an effective instrument for enhancing societal consciousness about the use of hearing aids and fortifying interpersonal communication.

 Amaç: Bu çalışmada işitme cihazı kullanıcılarında cihaz kullanım süresinin, bireylerin sosyal sorumluluğu ile ilişkisinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya, çalışma grubuna dahil edilen 27 kadın, 31 erkek olmak üzere toplam 58 işitme kayıplı birey ve verilerin karşılaştırılacağı kontrol grubunu oluşturan 37 kadın ve 34 erkek olmak üzere toplam 71 normal işiten birey katılmıştır. Tüm katılımcılara web tabanlı anket aracılığıyla Demografik Bilgi Formu, Bireysel Sosyal Sorumluluk Ölçeği ve çalışma grubuna Uluslararası İşitme Cihazları Değerlendirme Envanteri Türkçe Versiyonu kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: İşitme kayıplı bireyler ile normal işitmeye sahip bireyler arasında Bireysel Sosyal Sorumluluk Ölçeği skorları açısından istatistiksel anlamlı fark bulunmamıştır. İşitme kayıplı bireylerde, demografik alt başlıklarla karşılaştırılan Bireysel Sosyal Sorumluluk Ölçeği skorlarının, çalışan bireylerde istatistiksel anlamlı olarak daha yüksek olduğu belirlenmiştir. Yapılan korelasyon analizi yaş, kardeş sayısı, işitsel amplifikasyon yöntemi ve kullanım süresi ile Bireysel Sosyal Sorumluluk Ölçeği ve Uluslararası İşitme Cihazları Değerlendirme Envanteri Türkçe Versiyonu skorları arasında istatistiksel anlamlı korelasyon bulunmamıştır. Sonuç: İşitme kayıplı bireylerin işitme kaybının etkileri ve işitme cihazından memnuniyet hakkında farkındalığının artırılması gerekmektedir. Bu çalışmanın sonuçları, işitme cihazı kullanımı ve bireysel sosyal sorumluluk kavramı konusunda literatüre öncü ve yol gösterici olarak katkı sağlamaktadır, işitme cihazı kullanımında toplumsal farkındalığı artırmada ve toplumsal iletişimi güçlendirmede iyi bir araç olacaktır.
