A comparison of physical measurements of pure-tones, third-octave bands of noise and third-octave bands of speech to subjective judgments of audibility threshold, MCL and UCL for three normally hearing listeners

This study investigates the relation between physical measurements of pure-tones, third-octave bands of noise and third-octave bands of speech and subjective judgments of auditory threshold, most-comfortable listening level (MCL) and uncomfortable-listening level (UCL) for three normally hearing listeners.

Loudness judgments in normal and hearing impaired listeners

This paper studies the use of a rank order scale to achieve a goal of normal loudness perception for a hearing-impaired person. The study compares loudness judgments in normal and hearing-impaired listeners.
