Abstract: BARRIENTOS, ANNALYN C., TAGA-AN, REJYLL C. ("Factors of Noise-induced Hearing Loss Among Users of Personal Music Players in Selected Students of Cavite State University Main- Campus") Research problem. Bachelor of Science in Nursing, College of Nursing. Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. May 2017.Adviser: Evelyn M. Del Mundo, RN, MAN, PhD This study was conducted to determine the factors of noise induced hearing loss caused by music player among teenagers and young adults. The aim was to determine the relationship between the participants hearing status and their ways or factors of listening to music player using either earphones or loudspeakers. This study was conducted at Cavite State University in Indang, Cavite. The place of the research was chosen by the researchers for the reason of many has been observed to be using music player while travelling to school or within university premises. To identify the target population, purposive or judgmental non-probability sampling was used. The method for this sampling was done when the sample was taken and rejected people who do not fit in a particular profile or criteria of the study. Out of 13, 280 students, 393 students were selected through Slovin's formula. Among 393 students, 262 participants with abnormal hearing status were chosen to be included in the study with the help of different hearing tests such as ear visualization, Weber and Rinne test, and normal voice tone. A 15-item survey questionnaire were provided for every participant to fill up and answer. The questionnaire included the factors of music player that may affect noise-induced hearing loss. Based on the hearing assessment, results showed that out of 393 respondents, 262 (67.4%) participants experienced noise-induced hearing loss. It was revealed that there were significant relationships between factors of noise induced hearing loss in ear visualization, duration of listening, and volume set in noisy places. There were also significant relationships between factors of noise induced hearing loss in Weber test and place of listening. There were significant relationships between factors of noise induced hearing loss in Rinne test and the volume level set on the music player. In addition, there were significant relationships between factors of noise induced hearing loss in normal voice tone, usage of music player during resting time and as well as the place of listening. It was also revealed that the factors highly associated to noise induced hearing loss using personal music players were duration of listening, volume set in noisy places, place of listening, volume level set in music player, and the usage of music player while resting. The results indicated that the existing factors of noise-induced hearing loss using personal music player can highly affect one's hearing.
