Introduction:
In Australia, older Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have the highest prevalence of hearing loss, for which dedicated audiological services are available. However, there is limited research on the experiences older Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have with hearing loss and audiological services. Therefore, th...
Purpose
As hearing loss is a modifiable risk factor of dementia, allied hearing-healthcare professionals (AHHPs) frequently see older patients who are affected by both conditions. However, little is known about how well Australian AHHP’s understand the complexities of providing care to patients with comorbid hearing loss and dementia, as well as th...
Misinformation has become a prescient issue in public and academic domains. One pernicious aspect of misinformation is that it can persistently influence people’s judgements after clear and credible correction—a phenomenon dubbed the continued influence effect. There has been speculation that age may affect people’s susceptibility to the continued...
Objectives: Mental-health issues and untreated hearing loss contributed over 460 million disability-adjusted life years in 2019, costing approximately $6 trillion USD in economic losses. Furthermore, previous research has found untreated hearing loss to be a significant, modifiable risk factor of mental-health issues. However, whether hearing-loss...
Objectives: Mental-health issues accounted for 418 million disability-adjusted life years in 2019, costing the world economy approximately US$5 trillion. Untreated hearing loss is a well-known modifiable risk factor for mental-health issues, with severe-to-profound hearing loss having the largest impact. Therefore, treatment of severe-to-profound h...
Misinformation can continue to influence reasoning after correction; this is known as the continued influence effect (CIE). Theoretical accounts of the CIE suggest failure of two cognitive processes to be causal, namely memory updating and suppression of misinformation reliance. Both processes can also be conceptualised as subcomponents of contempo...
Misinformed beliefs are difficult to change. Refutations that target false claims typically reduce false beliefs, but tend to be only partially effective. In this study, a social norming approach was explored to test whether provision of peer norms could provide an alternative or complementary approach to refutation. Three experiments investigated...

Research has consistently shown that misinformation can continue to affect inferential reasoning after a correction. This phenomenon is known as the continued influence effect (CIE). Recent studies have demonstrated that CIE susceptibility can be predicted by individual differences in stable cognitive abilities. Based on this, it was reasoned that...
