Re-interpretation of early speech perception test (standard version) in Urdu language

This paper resulted in the Urdu language version of the Early Speech Perception Test(ESP).

Visual speech perception: a comparison between younger and older adults

This paper examines the visual speech processing abilities of older adults and the age-related effects on speechreading abilities.

Speech intelligibility in noise-induced hearing loss: effects of high-frequency compensation

This dissertation examines the frequency response that results in the maximum level of speech intelligibility for persons with noise-induced hearing loss.

Computer assisted instruction for developing speech perception skills in profoundly deaf children

This paper evaluates the usefulness of the "Foundations in Speech Perception" computer program developed by Breakthrough, Inc. in conjunction with Central Institute for the Deaf.

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.

Effect of amplification bandwidth on intelligibility of several different speech samples for a listener with sensorineural hearing loss

This paper examines the effect of amplification bandwidth on speech intelligibility using multiple speech samples.

The development of the computerized version of the early speech perception test battery

This paper discusses the development of a computerized version of the CID Early Speech Perception Test.

Does systematic instruction in rhythmic movement influence the speech of the deaf

This paper discusses the influence of rhythm in teaching of hearing impaired children.

A technique to train auditory and visual memory for speech patterns in young hearing-impaired children

This paper details a technique for training auditory memory for length of speech sounds in preschool children with a profound hearing loss.

Intelligibility of one's own speech relative to the speech of others

This paper reviews a speech intelligibility experiment using the same subjects as both talkers and listeners.

Speech perception through profoundly deaf ears

This paper is a review of a study done with an Oscillascope to determine if the sensory input would be of benefit to a profoundly deaf child.

Acoustic phonetics applied to auditory training and the teaching of speech to the hearing impaired

This paper is a review of acoustic phonetics as applied to auditory training for hearing impaired children.

Emotion perception in speech: Discrimination, identification, and the effects of talker and sentence variability

The primary goal of this project is to study the ability of adult cochlear implant users to perceive emotion through speech alone. A secondary goal of this project is to study the development of emotion perception in normal hearing children to serve as a baseline for comparing emotion perception abilities in similarly-aged children with impaired hearing.

The intelligibility of different kinds of test material used in speech audiometry

This paper discusses several tests used to measure speech intelligibility and speech discrimination.

Approaches for speech development

This paper discusses three approaches to speech development in hearing-impaired children: auditory-verbal, association phoneme unit method, and multi-sensory.
