abstract: 'The present study used propensity score analysis to compare the economic
well-being of people with and without hearing impairment in the UK.
Using nationally representative 2009/10 Life Opportunities Survey, our
study found that economic well-being was significantly worse for people
with hearing impairment than people without hearing impairment. Hearing
impaired people (1) had lower household income, (2) experienced greater
difficulties making ends meets, (3) were unable to pay for unexpected
but necessary expenses of 500, and (4) were less likely to work in paid
jobs even after accounting for other demographic characteristics. The
findings underscore the barriers and discrimination against people with
hearing impairment in the UK. Policy measures to increase access and
engagement of hearing impaired people should be considered, including
increasing investment in better employment opportunities, sign
interpretation, and disability benefits.'
