Speech Tests

Speech discrimination testing is an important part of the process of hearing aid evaluation, especially in the fitting of signal processing hearing aids.

Traditionally in the UK there have been a small number of speech tests available, and these may be at the floor or ceiling of a child's word recognition ability. New speech tests are needed to meet a wider range of performance in speech recognition, both in terms of the acoustics of the speech material and the vocabulary-level that a child has.

Information is given on some additional speech recognition materials that have been used in research studies undertaken at Chear.
