Speech Intelligibility of Two Voice Output Communication Aids.

Kannenberg, Patricia; And Others

Journal of Communication Disorders, v21 n1 p11-20 Feb 1988

The intelligibility of two voice-output communication aids ("Personal Communicator" and "SpeechPAC'") was evaluated by presenting synthesized words and sentences to 20 listeners. Analysis of listener transcriptions revealed significantly higher intelligibility scores for the "Personal Communicator" compared to the "SpeechPAC" and higher scores for sentences than for words.
