An electroacoustic evaluation was performed for five degrees of hearing loss ranging from a flat 40 to 80 dB HL, and for nine EasyGain settings from +8 to \u22128 dB with each Roger receiver.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>\n              A three-way analysis of variance indicated significant main effects of hearing loss, receiver type and EasyGain settings, as well as their two-way interactions (\n              <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n              &lt; .05). Overall, the output of the integrated receiver was 2.77 dB higher than that of the universal receiver. The change in output with 2-dB changes in EasyGain setting varied with the degree of hearing loss. For mild hearing loss (40 and 50 dB), every 2-dB change in EasyGain produced an average of 1.93 dB (\n              <jats:italic>SD<\/jats:italic>\n              = 0.17) change in the root-mean-square (RMS) output. For the higher degrees of hearing loss (60, 70, and 80 dB HL), the change in RMS varied depending on the range of EasyGain setting as follows: when EasyGain was &gt; 0 dB, every 2-dB change in EasyGain setting produced an average change in RMS output of 1.32 dB (\n              <jats:italic>SD<\/jats:italic>\n              = 0.41); however, when EasyGain was \u2264 0 dB, every 2-dB change resulted in a mean 1.95 dB (\n              <jats:italic>SD<\/jats:italic>\n              = 0.16) change.\n            <\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>The benefits of EasyGain technology on the RMS output are dependent on the interaction of the receiver type, degree of hearing loss, and EasyGain settings.
