The Sensitivity of Single-Word Intelligibility Test.

The NSMRL tri-word test of intelligibility (TTI)a)b).

continued preserves, moreover, the effects of gross temporal distortions and masking that occur within and between words in consecutive discourse. Discrimination scores for the tri-word test of intelligibility (TTI) as compared with the Modified Rhyme Test (MRT) and the C.I. D. sentence lists all taped with the same talker were lower when tested in quiet and even relatively lower in noise. The ...

The Word Intelligibility by Picture Identification (WIPI) Test Revisited

The Word Intelligibility by Picture Identification (WIPI) test is a widely used test to assess speech recognition for pediatric clients. Since the test was developed over 30 years ago, a number of the pictures are outdated and several test items have been reported to be unrecognizable by children today. The purpose of this study was to evaluate a revised version of the WIPI. The test included m...

Intelligibility Is More Than a Single Word: Quantification of Speech Intelligibility by ASR and Prosody

In this paper we examine the quality of the prediction of intelligibility scores of human experts. Furthermore, we investigate the differences between subjective expert raters who evaluated speech disorders of laryngectomees and children with cleft lip and palate. We use the recognition rate of a word recognizer and prosodic features to predict the intelligibility score of each individual exper...

Corrigendum: Left temporal alpha-band activity reflects single word intelligibility

The electroencephalographic (EEG) correlates of degraded speech perception have been explored in a number of recent studies. However, such investigations have often been inconclusive as to whether observed differences in brain responses between conditions result from different acoustic properties of more or less intelligible stimuli or whether they relate to cognitive processes implicated in co...
