Speech intelligibility in noise-induced hearing loss: effects of high-frequency compensation.
The speech-recognition ability of six listeners with permanent noise-induced hearing losses above 1 kHz was evaluated with the Pascoe High-Frequency Work List spoken by a female talker and presented in the field. In experiment I the words were presented at five intensity levels through five different amplification systems (one with a uniform response and four with increasing amounts of high-fre...
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 speech rate, background noise, and simulated hearing loss on speech rate judgment and speech intelligibility in young listeners.
PURPOSE To study the effect of noise on speech rate judgment and signal-to-noise ratio threshold (SNR50) at different speech rates (slow, preferred, and fast). RESEARCH DESIGN Speech rate judgment and SNR50 tasks were completed in a normal-hearing condition and a simulated hearing-loss condition. STUDY SAMPLE Twenty-four female and six male young, normal-hearing participants. RESULTS Spee...

متن کاملIntelligibility of Speech Produced by Children with Hearing Loss: Conventional Amplification versus Nonlinear Frequency Compression in Hearing Aids
Objective: This study aimed to 1) investigate the influence of nonlinear frequency compression (NLFC) in hearing aids on intelligibility of speech produced by children with hearing loss; and 2) examine whether clinicians’ or parents’ judgments might be correlated with those of inexperienced listeners. Methods: Twenty-seven adult listeners with normal hearing who reported no experience listening...
