The Intelligibility of Interrupted Speech
This paper concerns the effects of interrupting speech waves-turning them on and off intermittently or masking them with intermittent noise--upon their intelligibility. The effects were studied with various rates of interruption and with the speech left undisturbed various percentages of the time. Tests were conducted (1) with speech turned on and off in quiet, (2) with continuous speech masked...
متن کاملPerceptual learning of temporally interrupted spectrally degraded speech.
Normal-hearing (NH) listeners make use of context, speech redundancy and top-down linguistic processes to perceptually restore inaudible or masked portions of speech. Previous research has shown poorer perception and restoration of interrupted speech in CI users and NH listeners tested with acoustic simulations of CIs. Three hypotheses were investigated: (1) training with CI simulations of inte...
متن کاملSpeech Intelligibility of Cochlear-Implanted and Normal-Hearing Children
Introduction: Speech intelligibility, the ability to be understood verbally by listeners, is the gold standard for assessing the effectiveness of cochlear implantation. Thus, the goal of this study was to compare the speech intelligibility between normal-hearing and cochlear-implanted children using the Persian intelligibility test. Materials and Methods: Twenty-six cochlear-implanted childre...
متن کاملEffects of periodic masker interruption on the intelligibility of interrupted speech.
When listeners hear a target signal in the presence of competing sounds, they are quite good at extracting information at instances when the local signal-to-noise ratio of the target is most favorable. Previous research suggests that listeners can easily understand a periodically interrupted target when it is interleaved with noise. It is not clear if this ability extends to the case where an i...
متن کاملSpeech intelligibility after repair of cleft lip and palate
Background: Intelligibility refers to understandability of speech; and lack of it can negatively affect children’s overall communication effectiveness. Children with repaired cleft lip and/or cleft palate (CL/P) may experience poor speech intelligibility. This study aimed at evaluating speech intelligibility in children with repaired CL/P who had not been referred to sp...
