Samantha J. Gustafson studies hearing and listening, with a focus on how much mental effort people—especially children—spend to understand speech, and how background noise and distracting sounds affect this. Much of the work examines listening-related fatigue, hearing aids and assistive microphone technology, and how children who are deaf or hard of hearing perform in real-world settings like classrooms. Recent projects also explore how emotional, non-speech sounds distract listeners and increase listening effort.
