Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The investigators are studying the educational potential of games, with the goal of developing a game to improve learning and promote healthy hearing behaviors.

The project is looking for adolescents and young adults that play games to share their experience and learning from playing games.

The investigators ask participants to fill out an enrollment form/informed consent, complete surveys on healthy hearing habits, and play a game provided by the project.

This projects aims the development and evaluation of a game to educate teenagers and young adults about noise-induced hearing loss, enhance knowledge about hearing, and promote healthy hearing behaviors with the potential to improve hearing health care.
