Summary

Hearing impairment is a critical health problem throughout the world. In addition, having an impact on the biopsychosocial functioning of older adults, it places enormous stress and burden on communication partners who interact with older adults with hearing impairment every day. These communication partners generally have restrictions to their social lives and an increased communication burden, as well as symptoms of depression and adopting maladaptive coping and poorer quality of life. Therefore, group-based multi-component psycho-educational interventions are recommended. The purposes of this study are to examine the effects of group-based multi-component psycho-educational interventions (GMC-PEIs) on burden, depression, coping and quality of life in communication partners of older adults with hearing impairment. The single-blind, randomized control trial will include communication partners of older adults with hearing impairment. Participants will be randomized to either intervention groups or control groups.
