• comparing the second evaluation information acquired from the data storage section with first evaluation information expressing a first evaluation given by the user in response to sound obtained by hearing aid processing based on the specific method and hearing level data for the user;
• and
• setting the value of a first parameter designating hearing aid processing to be given to the user, to a value that is the same as the value of a second parameter that has been stored ahead of time in the data storage section and designates hearing aid processing suited to those reference users who gave a second evaluation that matched or was similar to the first evaluation, out of the plurality of reference users.
