An objective measure of the quality of speech communication channels was introduced and described by Steeneken-Houtgast. By calculating the Speech Transmission Index (STI), this method provides an estimate of logatom intelligibility for a ...

ABSTRACT This study systematically reviews impact risk in impact investing to identify its dimensions, drivers, governance responses, and interrelationships. Drawing on a qualitative thematic analysis of 56 articles published between 2011 and 2025, the review integrates previously fragmented research on impact‐related risks.

ABSTRACT Green claims pervade corporate communications, yet their informational value varies because stakeholders process them under bounded rationality—scarce attention and costly verification. This paper develops a conceptual signalling framework in which three parameters—signal diagnosticity (D), verification frictions (V) and available attention (A)

ABSTRACT Why do firms subject to identical ESG reporting requirements nevertheless ‘speak’ the Social pillar in different ways? Some foreground numerical indicators; others rely on narrative accounts of policies, systems and stakeholder engagement. This variation in disclosure form, rather than in disclosure coverage, motivates this exploratory study ...

Thresholds: The metaphorical foundations of powerful knowledge
Abstract This paper advances a theoretical account of threshold concepts as metaphorical‐relational structures that reorganise meaning across contexts. Building on conceptual metaphor theory, we propose that threshold concepts can be understood as sites of schema‐level reorganisation: deep, embodied patterns of relational logic that scaffold abstract ...

EVALUATION OF SPEECH INTELLIGIBILITY IN THE PREMISES PROTECTED BY ACOUSTIC NOISE GENERATOR
The evaluation of the speech intelligibility in the premises protected by acoustic noise generator was performed by the correlation analysis method. The existence of dependence between the speech intelligibility and the signal power was proofed with a ...

We demonstrate that the limitation of bioCO2‐derived methane is systemic rather than technological, and provide a validated framework for traceability, certification, and policy alignment enabling its integration into RFNBO‐compliant value chains and EU energy systems. ABSTRACT Renewable methane derived from biogenic CO2 (bioCO2) occupies a paradoxical

Speech Intelligibility in Persian Children with Down Syndrome
Objectives: One of the most effective methods to describe speech disorders is the measurement of speech intelligibility. The speech intelligibility indicates the extent of acoustic signals that correctly speaker produces and hearer receives.

Speech intelligibility in halls with Reverberation Enhancement Systems
Speech intelligibility is one of the most important aspects of room acoustics and is commonly evaluated in relation to objective parameters such as Reverberation Time (RT), Early Decay Time (EDT), and Clarity for speech (C50).
