Purpose - The present study was taken into account to study the variations of static balance with degree of hearing loss. Problem Statement - Therefore, the problem was stated as a study on static balance of different degree of hearing impaired school children. Methodological approach- A total of two hundred and ten (N=210) hearing impaired school children were selected as subjects for this study. The age of the subjects for the present study were ranged from 13-20 years. Firstly all the subjects for both sexes i.e. Boys (NB=102) and Girls (NG=102) were sub divided into five equal groups viz. Profound Group, Severe Group, Moderately Severe Group, Moderate Group and Mild Group, having representatives twenty one (n=21) each depending on their hearing ability as measured by audiometric techniques. In the present study the only dependent variable i.e. Static balance was measured by Stork Stand Test. Mean, standard deviation (SD) and Two way ANOVA were used for the inter group comparison of Static balance. Level of significance was tested at 0.05 levels. To find out the exact location of differences pair wise comparison analysis were done for Row, Column and Interaction separately by using Tukey's LSD test as post hoc test. Results - On the basis of the result, in static balance, it was observed that 1) the girls were significantly superior than boys when all degree of hearing loss groups were combined 2) there were significant differences in few pair of hearing impaired groups when both sexes were combined. It was also observed that 3) the mean static balance of the girls were greater than the boys belonging to Moderate and Mild group where as no differences were observed in Profound, Severe and Md. Severe groups between boys and girls 4) there were significant differences between few pair of hearing impaired groups both for boys section as well as girls section separately. Conclusions - it can be concluded that the static balance of the girls is significantly superior to their boy's counterpart when all degree of hearing loss groups are combined. Again, the static balance increases with decreasing hearing loss when both sexes are combined or both sexes considered separately. Thus there is a linear relationship between hearing ability and static balance for combined sexes as well as separately for boys and girls. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
