Critical Differences in Aided Sound Field Thresholds in Children.

Stuart, Andrew; And Others

Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, v33 n3 p612-15 Sep 1990

Variability of aided sound field thresholds (ASFTs) was examined in 30 hearing-impaired children comprising 2 age groups (5-9 and 10-14 years). Findings showed that 2 ASFTs would have to differ by more than 10 decibels across signal test frequencies to attain statistical significance. (Author/DB)
