It is universally accepted that linguistic context can affect the perception of speech. It is also
well-known that altering speech signals by factors such as reverberation and noise can …

Previous studies have demonstrated that speech understanding in reverberant rooms
improves when listeners are given prior exposure to the room. Results from these room …

It has been demonstrated that prior listening exposure to reverberant environments can
improve speech understanding in that environment. Previous studies have shown that the …

The temporal envelope and fine structure of speech make distinct contributions to the
perception of speech in normal-hearing listeners, and are differentially affected by room …

Speech intelligibility has been found to improve with prior exposure to a reverberant room
environment. It is believed that perceptual mechanisms help maintain accurate speech …

When we speak in an environment with noise, we often modify our speech production, and
speech spoken in noise is generally more intelligible than speech produced in a quiet …

There is now converging evidence that a brief period of prior listening exposure to a
reverberant room can influence speech understanding in that environment. Although the …

The effect of reverberation on speech intelligibility in normal hearing (NH) and hearing
impaired (HI) listeners was studied in two experiments. The first experiment examined the …

Individual acoustic parameters of reverberation have the potential to affect both the
intelligibility of speech and the degree of perceived reverberation. The current experiments …

Speech intelligibility has been shown to improve with prior exposure to a reverberant room
environment [Brandewie and Zahorik (2010). J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 128, 291–299] with a …
