Peer reviewedHumes, Larry E.; Kirn, Elizabeth U. – Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders, 1990
The study examined the test-retest reliability in unaided and aided sound-field thresholds and the functional gain values derived from these measurements in 24 hearing-impaired adults. Test-retest standard deviations were slightly larger for functional gain than for unaided thresholds. (Author/DB)

Peer reviewedHumes, Larry E.; And Others – Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, 1993
This study, involving 24 young and elderly normal-hearing adults, addressed the effects of aging on auditory serial-recall performance for natural and synthetic words. Serial recall of monosyllabic words was not affected by age per se or by rate of presentation, but word difficulty affected recall for both groups. (Author/JDD)
