Memory performance on the Auditory Inference Span Test is independent of background noise type for young adults with normal hearing at high speech intelligibility [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Listening in noise is often perceived to be effortful. This is partly because cognitive resources are engaged in separating the target signal from background noise, leaving fewer resources for storage and processing of the content of the message in ...

Face mask type affects audiovisual speech intelligibility and subjective listening effort in young and older adults

open access: yesCognitive Research, 2021
Identifying speech requires that listeners make rapid use of fine-grained acoustic cues—a process that is facilitated by being able to see the talker’s face.
