Five-choice speech discrimination test.
In order to overcome defects of dictation method, a new 5-choice method introduced into Japanese mono syllables discrimination test. A new 20-items mono syllables list was developed on the principle of equal probability of the Japanese consonant phonetics, instead of the present mono syllable frequencies among the 100 Japanese mono syllables.

Comparison of word-, sentence, and phoneme-based training strategies in improving the perception of spectrally-distorted speech [PDF]
Purpose: To compare the effectiveness of three self-administered strategies for auditory training that might improve speech perception by adult users of cochlear implants. The strategies are based, respectively, on discriminating isolated words, words in

Speech discrimination assessment with three closed-response word tests [PDF]
Word discrimination scores for 24 sensori-neural heating-impaired subjects obtained on the Modified Rhyme Test (MRT), Oklahoma University Closed-Response Test (OUCRT), and the California Consonant Test (CCT) were compared. The three word lists were recorded by a male speaker with general American English dialect.
