Abstract

This study examined the influence of stimulus properties on sound externalization when listening with hearing aids. Normally hearing listeners were presented with broadband "tokens" (environmental sounds and speech) from loudspeakers, and rated externalization using a continuous scale. In separate blocks, they listened unaided or while wearing behind-the-ear hearing aids with closed domes and low gain (linear or compressive). There was a significant influence of token on ratings, even for unaided listening, and the effect of hearing aids depended on token. An acoustic analysis indicated that hearing aids were more likely to disrupt externalization for peakier sounds with a low-frequency emphasis.

助听器对日常声音外化的影响。
本研究探讨了使用助听器聆听时,刺激特性对声音外化的影响。听力正常的听者从扬声器中听到宽带 "令牌"(环境声音和语音),并使用连续量表对外部化进行评分。在不同的区块中,听者在无助的情况下聆听,或在佩戴耳背式助听器的情况下聆听,助听器采用封闭式圆顶和低增益(线性或压缩性)。即使是在无助听的情况下,标记对评分也有很大影响,助听器的效果取决于标记。声学分析表明,助听器更有可能干扰低频峰值声音的外化。
