Sequential Testing of Speech Discrimination [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1971 Levitt and Rabiner recently described the use of sequential strategies for the measurement of speech intelligibility [J. Acoust. Soc. Amer. 42, 609–612 (1967)]. We employed the best-of-five strategy to measure the S/N ratios required for 30%, 50%, and 70% discrimination of CNC words in white noise.
