以下概述的理论问题,在言语感知训练和以前的努力,以提高助听器的使用,通过培训,一个多站点的研究,旨在评估两种类型的计算机化的言语感知训练的有效性,成人谁使用助听器,描述。一种训练方法侧重于在安静和噪声中识别109个音节成分(45个起始音,28个核心音和36个尾音),以及在各种噪声水平下对句子中单词的感知。在第二种类型的培训中,参与者在噪音中听6到7分钟的叙述,并就每个叙述提出几个问题。两组听众接受培训,每组使用这些类型的培训之一,在实验室环境中进行。两组人的训练之前和之后都进行了一系列的言语感知测试。受试者在正常设置下佩戴助听器时在声场中收听。培训持续15至20次访问,受试者使用两种方法中的一种完成至少30小时的重点培训。这两种类型的培训进行了详细描述,连同其他感知和认知的措施,从所有参与者获得的总结。
Following an overview of theoretical issues in speech-perception training and of previous efforts to enhance hearing aid use through training, a multisite study, designed to evaluate the efficacy of two types of computerized speech-perception training for adults who use hearing aids, is described. One training method focuses on the identification of 109 syllable constituents (45 onsets, 28 nuclei, and 36 codas) in quiet and in noise, and on the perception of words in sentences presented in various levels of noise. In a second type of training, participants listen to 6- to 7-minute narratives in noise and are asked several questions about each narrative. Two groups of listeners are trained, each using one of these types of training, performed in a laboratory setting. The training for both groups is preceded and followed by a series of speech-perception tests. Subjects listen in a sound field while wearing their hearing aids at their usual settings. The training continues over 15 to 20 visits, with subjects completing at least 30 hours of focused training with one of the two methods. The two types of training are described in detail, together with a summary of other perceptual and cognitive measures obtained from all participants.
