Underlying primary research data for a sensory evaluation study, focussing on the development of perceptual attributes for music audio quality from the perspective of hearing aid users. Research data include three .csv datasets corresponding to an individual elicitation task (single-word descriptors to describe music samples), background questionnaire (e.g., demographics, other characteristics), and a follow-up task (quantitative ratings relating to use of perceptual attributes of audio quality). These files are accompanied by a guidance document to navigate dataset variables. Finally, the research data include music samples (original and processed) utilised within the study. Part of the Cadenza Project
