Objective To investigate opinions on screening of newborn hearing from parent's and its influence to parents and their families. Methods Parents were divided into two groups and were given the same questionnaire. Those parents whose babies had passed the first test were in the first group, and those parents whose babies failed the test were in the second group. Results Most of the parents showed their ignorance to hearing screening with about 97.5 % of parents admitted they had little knowledge of hearing screening. 93.06 % of the parents showed positive attitude to the screening after being informed of the test. 59.73 % of the parents thought the test results were reliable. 73.12 % of the parents whose babies showed negative result at the first test, thought the results were accurate. There were only 38.19 % of the parents whose babies failed the first test held the same opinion. We also found that there were some disagreement among 78% of the parents who believed that the positive screening results might cause additional psychological stress on them and therefore affecting their normal family life. Conclusions Being informed of the screening, parents showed awareness of the test and were willing to cooperate. They believed the test was beneficial to their babies. Some parents whose babies did not pass the first screening test were often doubtful to the results and refused to be followed up. Therefore, we should improve our diagnostic technology to reduce the negative effects of the test. The results of our investigation suggested that the newborn hearing screening was applicable in our country.
