Speech Recognition Threshold in Noise: Effects of Hearing Loss, Frequency Response, and Speech Materials.

Van Tasell, Dianne J.; Yanz, Jerry L.

Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, v30 n3 p377-86 Sep 1987

Speech recognition threshold (SRT) was measured in quiet and in noise for normal hearing subjects and subjects with high frequency sensorineural hearing loss. The speed, reliability, and apparent sensitivity of the SRT to frequency response characteristics make it a potentially useful tool for hearing aid evaluation. (Author/DB)
