The effects of adding realism to a conventional speech-in-noise test
(2014)
The speech reception threshold (SRT) is routinely used in
research and in the clinic to assess people’s ability to
understand speech in noise. The overall goal of this work was
to determine whether introducing realistic ...
Towards more cognitively challenging speech tests
(2013)
Speech tests are often poor predictors of the
performance of individual listeners in the real world. This
may be in part because they do not adequately engage
all of the auditory and cognitive processes involved in
real ...
Effect of audibility on spatial release from speech-on-speech masking
(Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2015)
This study investigated to what extent spatial release from masking (SRM) deficits in hearingimpaired
adults may be related to reduced audibility of the test stimuli. Sixteen adults with sensorineural
hearing loss and ...
An examination of speech reception thresholds measured in a simulated reverberant cafeteria environment
(International Journal of Audiology, 2014)
There is increasing demand in the hearing research community for the creation of laboratory environments that better simulate challenging real-world listeneing envrionments.
Development and preliminary evaluation of a new test of ongoing speech comprehension
(2015)
Objective: The overall goal of this work is to create new speech perception tests that more closely resemble real world communication
and offer an alternative or complement to the commonly used sentence recall test. Design: ...
An examination of speech reception thresholds measured in a simulated reverberant cafeteria environment
(2015)
Objective: There is increasing demand in the hearing research community for the creation of laboratory environments that better simulate
challenging real-world listening environments. The hope is that the use of such ...
