 ===== Scoring =====
-The HHIA and HHIE both contain the following 8 items: 5 'emotional' items (2a/b/e/i/k) and 3 'social/situational' items (2f/j/l). Furthermore, the HHIA contains 2 specific 'social/situational' items (2d/h) and the HHIE contains 2 alternative 'social/situational' items (2c/g).\\
+The HHIA contains 10 questions: 5 'emotional' items (2a/b/e/i/k) and 5 'social/situational' items (2d/f/h/j/l).\\
-Although each adult participant (including elderly participants) received all 12 (8+2+2) HHIA/HHIE items, participants between 18-64 years old should be scored using only the 10 HHIA items (2a/b/d/e/f/h/i/j/k/l), and participants of 65 years and older should be scored using only the 10 HHIE items (2a/b/c/e/f/g/i/j/k/l).
+The HHIE contains the same 10 questions, except that two of the 'social/situation' items are replaced by items that fit better with the elderly target group (2d -> 2c, and 2h -> 2g).
-Scoring works as follows: participants indicated for all 10 items to what extent it was applicable to their life: yes (4 points), no (0 points), or sometimes (2 points). Adding up all the points for the 10 relevant/age-appropriate items results in the following sum scores:
+Scoring works as follows:\\
+Participants indicated for all 12 items (8 overlapping HHIA/E items + 2 HHIA-specific items + 2 HHIE-specific items) to what extent it was applicable to their life: yes (4 points), no (0 points), or sometimes (2 points).\\
+Since the scoring is validated for only 10 items, researchers must decide whether they want to score the HHIA (8 overlapping items + 2 HHIA-specific items) or the HHIE (8 overlapping questions + 2 HHIE-specific items) for a given participant.
+Adding up all the points for the resulting set of 10 age-appropriate items gives the following sum scores:
   * 0-8 = no self-perceived handicap
   * 10 to 24 = mild to moderate handicap
   * 26 to 40 = severe handicap
-Note that one basic question about potential hearing problems (1) was added, to determine if participants should fill in the HHIA/E-S.\\
+Note that one basic question about potential hearing problems (1) preceded the HHIA/E-S. Participants without any hearing problems skipped the HHIA/E-S.\\
