Listener experience impacts understanding disordered speech, especially from children with cochlear implants. Experienced listeners interpret more deaf speech, but experience alone doesn't guarantee higher intelligibility ratings.

Area of Science:

  • Audiology
  • Speech-Language Pathology
  • Hearing Science

Background:

  • Speech intelligibility is crucial for communication.
  • Listener experience is a known factor influencing speech perception.
  • Deaf speech, particularly post-cochlear implantation, presents unique intelligibility challenges.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the role of listener experience in perceiving intelligibility of disordered speech.
  • To compare intelligibility judgments between experienced and inexperienced listeners.
  • To analyze speech samples from a child with a hearing impairment post-cochlear implantation.

Main Methods:

  • Collecting speech samples from a hearing-impaired child over 13 months post-cochlear implantation.
  • Presenting speech samples to two listener groups: experienced and inexperienced.

  • Quantifying and comparing intelligibility ratings between the two groups.

    • Main Results:

    • Experienced listeners demonstrated higher comprehension of the disordered speech samples.
    • A significant difference in intelligibility perception was observed between experienced and inexperienced listeners.
    • Listener experience was a contributing factor but not the sole determinant of intelligibility ratings.

    Conclusions:

    • Listener experience significantly enhances the ability to interpret disordered speech.
    • While experience aids intelligibility, it does not guarantee superior performance in all cases.
    • Further research is needed to explore other factors influencing intelligibility judgments in deaf speech.
