Abstract
Performance-Level functions were determined for part- and full-list Edgerton and Danhauer (1979) Nonsense Syllable Test (NST) mean scores of 15 normal-hearing (NH) and 15 mild-to-moderately hearing-impaired (HI) Ss. In the first part-list procedure S received 5 different items from the 25-item NST List A at each ascending SL (25, 35, 45, 55, and 65 db re: S's better-ear SRT), while in the second, full-list, procedure S received the full 25 items. As previous studies had shown, the NST could be used to distinguish the NH and HI groups. The P-L functions were not significantly different for the part- vs the full-list procedures except at the 35 and 55 db SLs in which the part-list scores tended to overestimate those from the full list for both groups, to a maximum difference in percent correct of about 7%. Clinical implications are presented.
对部分表和完整表Edgerton and Danhauer(1979)无意义音节测试(NST) 15名正常听力(NH)和15名轻至中度听力受损(HI)学生的平均得分进行了性能水平函数的测定。在第一个部分表程序中,S从25个不同项目的NST列表A中获得了5个不同的项目(25、35、45、55和65分贝:S的好耳朵SRT),而在第二个完整表程序中,S获得了完整的25个项目。正如先前的研究表明,NST可以用来区分NH和HI组。部分列表和完整列表的P-L功能没有显著差异,除了35和55 db的部分列表分数倾向于高估两组的完整列表分数,正确率的最大差异约为7%。提出了临床意义。
