Interviewer instructions
MS2. Do you have permanent hearing limitations, even when using hearing aids?
This question seeks to find out if the person has some auditory disability, it's important that you ask the entire question, that's to say only mark "Yes" when the person, even with the hearing aids on, doesn't hear well.
[p. 5]
This refers to people who can't hear any sound due to a total deafness and to those who still using hearing aids cannot overcome their limitation.
Examples of question MS2
Pablo only hears if he uses hearing aid, [which] corresponds to marking option "2".
Camile is 9 years old, and her mother says that, due to reiterated ear inflammation, she has hearing problems. It is necessary to investigate:
Interviewer: What difficulties or problems does she currently have?
Response: She has difficulties in school because she doesn't hear the teacher or the classmates that don't direct themselves directly to hear and the people who aren't looking at her.
Interviewer: What is that due to?
Response: The medic is doing studies and says that he still doesn't know.
Interviewer: Since when?
Response: Since the ear inflammation began, two years ago, but recently, we brought her to the doctor the end of last year and since that date she has been in treatment.
This corresponds with option "2".
