Performance Intensity Functions for Digitally Recorded Japanese Speech Audiometry Materials
… study was to develop digitally recorded speech audiometry materials in the Japanese language to evaluate Speech Reception Threshold (SRT) and speech discrimination. Trisyllabic words were used to evaluate the SRT and bisyllabic words were used for speech discrimination. Words were recorded by …

Development of Thai Speech Audiometry Materials for Measuring Speech Recognition Thresholds
Speech audiometry materials are essential for thorough audiological testing. One aspect of speech audiometry is evaluating an individual's speech recognition threshold (SRT). Recorded materials for SRT are available in many languages; however there are no widely published recorded SRT materials …

Comparison of Speech Audiometry Stimulus Lists on Hearing Impaired and Normal Hearing Subjects
The appropriateness and differences of different speech recognition and speech intelligibility word lists were investigated. It has been reported that the use of two-syllable spondee words that are comprised of high frequency sounds may more accurately represent the true speech recognition …

Psychometrically Equivalent Digital Recordings for Speech Audiometry Testing in Mandarin Chinese: Standard Mandarin Dialect
The development of digitally recorded speech audiometry materials in Mandarin Chinese has been limited to date. High quality materials proliferate in the English language and have been developed for other languages such as Brazilian Portuguese, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, French, Italian, Polish, …

Early identification and monitoring of cochlear damage using extended high-frequency audiometry : a systematic review
ABSTRACT Extended-high frequency (EHF) audiometry has been recommended for early identification and monitoring of cochlear damage. The main reason is that cochlear damage occurs at frequencies higher than 8000 Hz before the thresholds at conventional frequencies (250 Hz to 8000 Hz) are affected. …

Ototoxicity Monitoring using Automated Extended High-Frequency Audiometry and the Sensitive Range of Ototoxicity in Patients with MDR-TB
… still a global lack of audiologists. Automated audiometry is a vital application for testing especially when audiologists are not available to physically do the test. Automated audiometry has been previously validated. Clinically, automated audiometry is objective and allows for standardisation. …

Psychometrically Equivalent Bisyllabic Words for Speech Reception Threshold Testing in Arabic
The use of speech audiometry is essential in audiological testing. One of the most important elements of speech audiometry is speech reception threshold. To provide services for the growing population of non-English speaking people, audiologists need speech audiometry materials in a variety of …

Role of Driver Hearing in Commercial Motor Vehicle Operation: An Evaluation of the FHWA Hearing Requirement
… hearing levels required. Task analysis, audiometry, dosimetry, in-cab noise measurements, and analytical prediction of both speech intelligibility and masked thresholds were all used in performing the evaluation. One of the methods currently used to test truck driver hearing, the …

The Effect of Regional Dialect on the Validity and Reliability of Word Recognition Scores
… scores from two sets of Mandarin speech audiometry materials. Four lists of bisyllabic words in Mainland Mandarin and Taiwan Mandarin dialects were administered to 16 participants of each dialect with normal hearing across two test sessions. The performance on materials presented in the …

A profile of the auditory function of children with TB receiving ototoxic medication at Brooklyn Chest Hospital
… of audiologic tests (otoscopy, immittance, audiometry or OAE and AABR) were conducted on 29 children, aged 0 to 18 years, and the results were analysed using descriptive statistics and Generalized Linear Models. The results suggest that 55% of children had middle ear abnormality and 48% had …

Development and evaluation of a free-field voice test for potential use as a community screening tool for hearing impairment in children
… and loud. This was evaluated against pure tone audiometry for sensitivity, specificity, cost and ease of application in two studies: hospital and school- based. A total of 394 children were tested; 189 in hospital-based study and 205 in school based study. 378 of the total were eligible for …

Pitch, loudness and frequency selectivity in low-frequency hearing loss
… treatments. This thesis aims to introduce 'home audiometry' to monitor hearing function in monaural FLFHL. The approaches contain assessment of other manifestations of the diseases such as frequency selectivity and frequency coding of the auditory system. Long-term monitoring of binaural loudness …

A preliminary study of the effects of selective-serotonin re-uptake inhibitors (SSRIs) on central auditory processing
… measures included: Standard audiological tests (audiometry and tympanometry), electrophysiological procedures for analysis of auditory- evoked brainstem and late responses, and standardized behavioral speech tests (SCAN-A, SSI, and the low predictability sentence list of the R-SPIN). Analysis of …
