Consonant errors and remediation in sensorineural hearing loss.

E Owens

    The Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders
    |August 1, 1978
    PubMed
    Summary

    Hearing-impaired individuals struggle with recognizing specific consonants, especially in word endings. Targeted instruction and utilizing both visual and auditory cues can significantly improve consonant recognition skills.

    Area of Science:

    • Audiology
    • Speech-Language Pathology
    • Rehabilitation Science

    Background:

    • Consonant recognition is crucial for speech comprehension in hearing-impaired individuals.
    • Previous research indicates challenges in auditory perception for this population.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze consonant error patterns in hearing-impaired subjects.
    • To identify specific consonants and error types that impede recognition.
    • To inform the development of improved auditory training methods.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of consonant errors in a multiple-choice recognition task.
    • Examination of error probabilities based on consonant position (initial vs. final).
    • Categorization of substitution errors (place and manner) and their relation to pure-tone configurations.

    Main Results:

    • Approximately 14 consonants presented the most difficulty.
    • Error probability was higher for consonants in the final word position.
    • Substitutions were typically limited to a few consonants, with place errors predominating.
    • Error patterns remained consistent across various pure-tone configurations.

    Conclusions:

    • Understanding specific consonant confusions and error patterns is key to improving auditory recognition.
    • Programmed instruction and manipulation of response choices can enhance learning.
    • Integrating visual and auditory training modalities offers a comprehensive approach.
    • Consonant frequency of usage should guide retraining order for maximum benefit.
