Children's speech recognition and loudness perception with the Desired Sensation Level v5 Quiet and Noise prescriptions.
PURPOSE To determine whether Desired Sensation Level (DSL) v5 Noise is a viable hearing instrument prescriptive algorithm for children, in comparison with DSL v5 Quiet. In particular, the authors compared children's performance on measures of consonant recognition in quiet, sentence recognition in noise, and loudness perception when fitted with DSL v5 Quiet and Noise. METHOD Eleven children (...
متن کاملInformational masking in hearing-impaired and normal-hearing listeners: sensation level and decision weights.
Informational masking (IM) refers to elevations in signal threshold caused by masker uncertainty. The purpose of this study was to investigate two factors expected to influence IM in hearing-impaired listeners. Masked thresholds for a 2000-Hz signal in the presence of simultaneous multitone maskers were measured in 16 normal-hearing (NH) and 9 hearing-impaired (HI) listeners. The maskers were 7...

15 صفحه اول[The evaluation for hearing aids fitting by using TR60 (a new system of hearing aids fitting)].
We have studied 131 patients (over 12 y/o) for hearing aids evaluation by the Noise Impulse Hearing Test using the fitting system TR 60 and have compared the test results with the subjective estimation of the patients wearing hearing aids. The judgement for selection of hearing aids by TR 60 is made by measuring most comfortable level (MCL) on the condition of wearing hearing aids, using narrow...
متن کاملEvaluation method for hearing aid fitting under reverberation: comparison between monaural and binaural hearing aids.
Some hearing-impaired persons with hearing aids complain of listening difficulty under reverberation. No method, however, is currently available for hearing aid fitting that permits evaluation of hearing difficulty caused by reverberations. In this study, we produced speech materials with a reverberation time of 2.02 s that mimicked a reverberant environment (a classroom). Speech materials with...
