The formation of learning sets by the chinchilla in an auditory discrimination procedure

This paper discusses a study conducted to test sound discrimination abilities of the chinchilla.

Evaluating the directional effects of acoustic horn style hearing aids using the QuickSIN procedure

This paper evaluates the directional effects of two hearing devices – an antique London Dome horn style device and a constructed Cupped Hand. The comparisons were made using the Quick SIN (Speech in Noise) adaptive test which measures signal-to-noise ratio loss.

Use of the storage oscilloscope to train deaf children to convey meaning in sentences through intonation control

This paper is a review of a study to determine if profoundly deaf adolescents could be trained in intonation control in using a two-channel storage oscilloscope.

The Developmental Sentence Scoring Procedure

This paper investigates the usefulness of the Developmental Sentence Scoring Procedure (DSS) as a clinical tool in rating the syntactic performance of young children.

The effects of training in the tracking procedure on the speechreading ability of two profoundly hearing-impaired children

This paper discusses a study to determine whether training employing in the tracking procedure would prove beneficial to profoundly hearing-impaired children in comprehension of spoken language.

Evaluation of sentence list equivalency for the TIMIT sentences by cochlear implant recipients

The equivalency of 34 TIMIT sentence lists was evaluated using adult cochlear implant recipients to determine if they should be recommended for future clinical or research use. Because these sentences incorporate gender, dialect and speaking rate variations, they have the potential to better represent speech recognition abilities in real-world communication situations.

The use of a language eliciting procedure as a tool in the establishment of teaching goals

This paper reviews a study to examine the feasibility of using elicited language samples as a basis for planning language instruction and as a measure of progress in language development.

Use of the storage oscilloscope to train deaf children to convey meaning in sentences through intonation control

This paper is a review of a study to determine if profoundly deaf adolescents could be trained in intonation control in using a two-channel storage oscilloscope.
