Speech perception through FM auditory trainers in noise and reverberation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Speech perception through FM auditory trainers was explored in conditions of noise and reverberation. Special attention was paid to the mode of transmission and individual capabilities of various commercially-available units to handle speech in noise and reverberation. Results indicate an overwhelming advantage of FM transmission for maintaining speech intelligibility in noise and reverberation, irrespective of the instrument.

Effect of Vowel Auditory Training on the Speech-In-Noise Perception among Older Adults with Normal Hearing
Introduction: Aging reduces the ability to understand speech in noise. Hearing rehabilitation is one of the ways to help older people communicate effectively. This study aimed to investigate the effect of vowel auditory training on the improvement of speech-in-noise (SIN) perception among elderly listeners. Materials and Methods: This study was conducted on 36 elderly ...
متن کاملSpeech perception in noise: directional microphones versus frequency modulation (FM) systems.
The major consequence of sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is communicative difficulty, especially with the addition of noise and/or reverberation. The purpose of this investigation was to compare two types of technologies that have been shown to improve the speech-perception performance of individuals with SNHL: directional microphones and frequency modulation (FM) systems. Forty-six adult sub...
متن کاملEffect of signal to noise ratio on the speech perception ability of older adults
Background: Speech perception ability depends on auditory and extra-auditory elements. The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is an extra-auditory element that has an effect on the ability to normally follow speech and maintain a conversation. Speech in noise perception difficulty is a common complaint of the elderly. In this study, the importance of SNR magnitude as an extra-auditory effect on speech...

Background: The main result of hearing impairment is reduction of speech perception. Patient with auditory neuropathy can hear but they can not understand. Their difficulties have been traced to timing related deficits, revealing the importance of the neural encoding of timing cues for understanding speech. Objective: In the present study psychoacoustic perception (minimal noticeable differen...
متن کاملAuditory Processing Disorders II: experimental results on APD management with personal FM systems
In a first paper (Mülder, Rogiers and Hoen, the 6~7 volume of Speech and Hearing Review), we have reviewed actual views on Auditory Processing Disorders (APD), their definition, etiology, diagnosis and the actual consensus on APD management strategies. In this second article, we proposed to report on recent experimental work done on the management of APD using environmental modifications via pe...
