An 8-dB difference between speech detection and spondee thresholds was observed, which is the same relationship that has been found in normal ears. No significant differences in speech discrimination scores (SDS's) were observed when NU-6 was administered via monitored live voice (MLV) and the Auditec recordings. Although our data support the use of MLV testing, verification with a standardized recording should be considered when unusually poor SDS's are obtained. Half-list and full-list SDS's were analyzed for both taped and MLV presentation modes. This analysis showed that both the MLV and taped stimuli exhibited very similar variability and that about 96% of the half-list scores were within 6% of the full-list scores. The clinician should be cautious, however, because 4% of the ears had half-list/full-list discrepancies ranging from 8 to 14% and differences as large as 28% have been reported by Raffin and Thornton (1977). Furthermore, variability between half-list and full-list SDS's varies as a function of intelligibility impairment, being least for scores approaching the extremes of 0 and 100% and greatest for scores in the 30 to 70% range. Finally, our data suggest that half-list testing can be an effective screening procedure to determine it full-list testing is advisable.","PeriodicalId":76026,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the American Audiology Society","volume":"3 6","pages":"267-72"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1978-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"11882537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Masking of spondees by interrupted noise in hearing-impaired listeners.","authors":"J L Punch","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"The effects of changing the duty cycle of an interrupted-broad band masker on the spondee thresholds of hearing-impaired subjects were explored. Two diagnostic groups of sensorineural hearing loss, presbycusics and cochlear otosclerotics, were investigated. The interruption rate of the masker was 10/sec, and its duty cycle was varied at 25% intervals. Thresholds also were obtained in continuous noise and in quiet. Results when compared with earlier data from normal listeners revealed that subjects with sensorineural impairment exhibited poorer performance in all instances, including the continuous noise condition, when mean masker levels were adjusted to comparable sound pressure levels. The overall pattern of masking was more similar for the normal and hearing-impaired groups when performance was equated in terms of the mean threshold shift each group experienced in continuous noise. Even under these circumstances, however, hearing-impaired subjects demostrated notably greater residual masking under the 25 and 50% noise-on conditions. A major determinant of speech reception in fluctuating noise backgrounds is the dependence of the pattern of masking upon the difference between an individual's masked threshold in continuous noise and his threshold in quiet, rather than upon the sound pressure level of the masker.","PeriodicalId":76026,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the American Audiology Society","volume":"3 6","pages":"245-52"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1978-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"11882663","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
