dc.description.abstract	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 communication tasks. Our aim is to create new speech tests that provide more relevant performance measures. Here we examined the effects of (a) introducing a more realistic acoustic environment, and (b) moving to a more natural and engaging speech task on the speech reception threshold in noise (SRTn).	en_US
