Identification of Conductive Hearing Loss Using Air Conduction Tests Alone: Reliability and Validity of an Automatic Test Battery
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins., 2014-01)
The primary objective of this study was to determine whether
a combination of automatically administered pure-tone audiometry and
a tone-in-noise detection task, both delivered via an air conduction (AC)
pathway, could ...
Cognitive Spare Capacity: Evaluation data and its association with comprehension of dynamic conversations
(Frontiers in Psychology, 2015)
It is well established that communication involves the working memory system, which becomes increasingly engaged in understanding speech as the input signal degrades. The more resources allocated to recovering a degraded ...
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 ...
Evaluation of the NAL dynamic conversations test in older listeners with hearing loss
(International Journal of Audiology, 2017)
The National Acoustic Laboratories Dynamic Conversations Test (NAL-DCT) is a new test of speech comprehension that
incorporates a realistic environment and dynamic speech materials that capture certain features of everyday ...
