Rouhbakhsh, Nematollah; Mahdi, John; Hwo, Jacob; Nobel, Baran; Mousave, Fati – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2019
Purpose: Speech recognition in complex listening environments is enhanced by the extent of spatial separation between the speech source and background competing sources, an effect known as spatial release from masking (SRM). The aim of this study was to investigate whether the phase-locked neural activity in the central auditory pathways,…

Niswander, Paul S.; Ruth, Roger A. – American Journal of Mental Deficiency, 1977
The ability of the sensitivity prediction from acoustic reflex (SPAR) technique to estimate hearing loss in 32 trainable mentally retarded Ss (adults and young adults with normal to profound hearing loss) was investigated by comparing measured pure-tone thresholds determined through tangible-reinforcement operant-conditioning audiometry with…

Dubno, Judy R.; And Others – Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, 1995
This experiment sought to define a confidence limit for maximum word-recognition scores obtained from 212 young and elderly adults with confirmed cochlear hearing loss. A 95% confidence limit was found and supported through analysis, although it is suggested that, in some cases, word recognition should be measured at additional levels to obtain…
