About the Journal
The Journal of the American Academy of Audiology (JAAA) is the Academy's scholarly peer-reviewed publication, available online at no cost to Academy members as a benefit of membership. The journal disseminates original research articles, reviews, and clinical reports providing evidence-based and clinically-relevant research.
Aims and Scope
JAAA publishes articles in all areas of audiology, including audiological assessment, amplification, aural habilitation and rehabilitation, auditory electrophysiology, vestibular science, hearing science, and public health. We encourage basic science as well as translational research that has important implications for clinical audiology.
JAAA is accepting submissions for publication in 2026 with the option to publish open access to expand the reach of your research.
Current Highlights
Explore the latest breakthroughs and essential insights in audiology featured in the current issue of JAAA.
Associations Between Emotion, Motivation, and Cognition After Short-Term Hearing Aid Use
A recently published study in hearing aid wearers showed positive emotions, autonomous motivation, and cognitive performance were positively associated with hearing aid usage. Findings support the notion that hearing-health care and hearing aids are an essential aspect of aging and emotional well-being in individuals with hearing loss.

Exploring the Functioning of the Vestibulo-Masseteric Reflex Pathway in Individuals with Vestibular Neuritis
The role of the vestibular evoked myogenic potential (VEMP) in the clinical pathway is not completely understood. A recent study measured cervical, ocular, and masseter VEMPs in patients with vestibular neuritis. Results showed a dissociation between the evoked potentials, highlighting the complexity of vestibular innervation and the neural mechanisms underlying vestibular evoked potentials.
