Purpose To study the perceptual consequences of changes in parameters of vocoded
speech in various reverberation conditions. Method The 3 controlled variables were number …

While reverberation often degrades speech intelligibility, previous studies have shown that
prior exposure to reverberation can reduce its adverse effects on speech perception. The …

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 …

We routinely hear speech that is degraded by both noise and reverberation due to the
characteristics of our listening environments. These intrusions alter the spectral and …

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

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 …

Purpose To determine if listeners with normal hearing and listeners with sensorineural
hearing loss give different perceptual weightings to cues for stop consonant place of …

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 …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate the contribution of a contralateral hearing
aid to the perception of consonants, in terms of voicing, manner, and place-of-articulation …

Many hearing-aid wearers have difficulties understanding speech in reverberant noisy
environments. This study evaluated the effects of reverberation and noise on speech …
