Evaluation of Ear Protective Devices [PDF]
Ear protective devices have been evaluated according to the procedures recently proposed by the American Standards Association (pure tone, binaural, free field, threshold shift method). To obtain an estimate of subject variability, attenuation values for the V-51R ear plug were determined for twenty subjects, with five replications for each subject ...

Noise Attenuation of Current Ear-Protective Devices [PDF]
Ten ear-protective devices—three plugs, three muffs, two phone-in-muff combinations, one phone-in-muff in protective helmet, and one plug-muff combination—were tested for noise attenuation. The psychophysical method of binaural threshold shift (occluded ears minus open ear) for half-octave bands of noise using three trials on five experienced listeners

The Reliability and Validity of In-Ear Microphone Measurements of Ear Protective Devices [PDF]
A miniature microphone was placed in a subject's ear after the method described by Brammer and Piercy [J. Acoust. Soc. Amer. 52, 1972 180], and its output fed to a spectrum analyzer set to a bandwidth of 100 Hz. The subjects were seated in a semireverberant room into which a white noise field at 95 dB SPL was introduced.
