Speech In Noise©

~ auditecinfo ~ 1 Comment

The Speech in Noise© (SIN) test was developed to help determine how much a given hearing aid or pair of hearing aids helps an individual understand speech in a background of noise, compared to listening unaided or with other hearing aids. The test consists of a series of female-talker recordings of the IEEE (modified Harvard) sentences as the target speech, and four-talker babble (three women and one man) as the noise source. Five sentences are recorded at each of four signal-to-noise (S/N) ratios: 15 dB, 10 dB, 5 dB and 0 dB S/N, all at the 0 dB VU meter calibration level, followed by a similar series recorded at a signal level 30 dB lower than the calibration level (-30 dB re 0 VU).

Therefore, there are 20 sentences at each level for a total of 40 sentences (or 4 IEEE lists), all of which constitutes a block. There are nine blocks of the SIN test, so that nine comparisons can be made without repeating sentences. Each listening condition takes approximately twelve minutes to administer.

The Speech in Noise© includes a) audio recording, and b) instructions and score forms as printable pdf files. The instructions provide information on administration.

Hearing Loss Simulation©

~ auditecinfo ~ Leave a comment

The Hearing Loss Simulation© attempts to demonstrate what a hearing loss might sound like to the hearing impaired. It is in two main parts; part one demonstrates a flat “conductive” loss down to 40 dB in 10 dB steps (40 dB of attenuation), and part two simulates high frequency losses. The latter section employs both male and female talkers in quiet and in noise. 25 The Hearing Loss Simulation demonstration consists of sharp (48 dB/oct) low-pass filters at 2000, 1000 and 500 Hz, illustrating precipitous high frequency losses. Brief introductions precede each section.

The Hearing Loss Simulation© includes a) audio recording, and b) instructions. The three-page instructions include representative audiograms. Normative data is not included for this product because it is not for measuring. It is only used for demonstration.

Auditory Fusion Test-Revised© (AFT-R)

~ auditecinfo ~ 1 Comment

Until the Auditory Fusion Test-Revised© was released, one aspect of temporal (central) processing, gap detection (temporal resolution), had been generally ignored. The Auditory Fusion Test–Revised© (AFT-R) was produced in response to the ASHA task force position statement on central auditory processing to fill this void. AFT-R is an easily administered and efficient test for identifying temporal processing deficits including problems with temporal resolution and gap detection. AFT-R has the distinct advantage of being a non-linguistic measure, making linguistic background irrelevant in interpretation of results. Normative data are included in the manual. Administration time is less than 20 minutes.

The Auditory Fusion Test-Revised© includes a) audio recording, and b) instructions and score form as printable pdf files.

~ auditecinfo ~ Leave a comment

The Spanish Synthetic Sentence Identification-Contralateral Competing Message© (Spanish SSI-CCM) is directly analogous to the English version of the Synthetic Sentence Identification. There are 10 sets of 10 synthetic sentences. The competition is a male talker reading a passage.  This contralateral competition version has sentences on the left track (channel) and competition on the right. It is a dichotic test using binaural integration sensitive to cortical vs. brain stem lesions.

The Spanish Synthetic Sentence Identification-Contralateral Competing Message© includes: a) audio test recording, b) instructions and score forms as printable pdf files. The instructions are provided in Spanish. The score forms are provided in English only. English graphs include normative data for hearing aid evaluation only that is based on the English version of this test to be a guideline for administrators of the Spanish version. No normative data is included for the central auditory function; however, the audiologist can uncover useful insight by comparing the patient’s performance on the contralateral and ipsilateral presentations.
