Speech intelligibility assessment of protective facemasks and air-purifying respirators
Journal of Occupational and Environmental Hygiene, 2016 Speech Intelligibility (SI) is the perceived quality of sound transmission. In healthcare settings, the ability to communicate clearly with coworkers, patients, etc., is crucial to quality patient care and safety. The objectives of this study were to: (1)

Auditory and Semantic Processing of Speech‐in‐Noise in Autism: A Behavioral and EEG Study
Autism Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Autistic individuals often struggle to recognize speech in noisy environments, but the neural mechanisms behind these challenges remain unclear. Effective speech‐in‐noise (SiN) processing relies on auditory processing, which tracks target sounds amidst noise, and semantic processing, which further integrates relevant acoustic information to ...

Signal envelope and speech intelligibility differentially impact auditory motion perception
Scientific Reports, 2021 Our acoustic environment contains a plethora of complex sounds that are often in motion. To gauge approaching danger and communicate effectively, listeners need to localize and identify sounds, which includes determining sound motion.

Research Interviews in Historical Practice
Berichte zur Wissenschaftsgeschichte, EarlyView.A key difference between collecting life stories and doing research interviews is the role of the interviewer. While training in oral history may focus on using standard scripts to take a life story, research interviews are motivated by specific questions that arise from particular historical projects and are often not primarily focused on the ...

EURASIP Journal on Audio, Speech, and Music Processing, 2010 In patients suffering from head and neck cancer, speech intelligibility is often restricted. For assessment and outcome measurements, automatic speech recognition systems have previously been shown to be appropriate for objective and quick evaluation of ...

Cognitive–linguistic deficit and speech intelligibility in chronic progressive multiple sclerosis [PDF]
, 2009 Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disabling neurological disease with varied symptoms, including dysarthria and cognitive and linguistic impairments. Association between dysarthria and cognitive-linguistic deficit has not been explored in clinical MS studies.
