The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of age on acoustic impedance values in the elderly. Pure tone, otoscopic, and impedance testing were conducted with subjects from 20 to 29, 60 to 69, and 70 to 79 years of age. Results revealed a slight, but nonsignificant, tendency for static compliance values to decrease with age, suggesting that the use of separate compliance norms for the elderly may not be warranted.

本研究的目的是评估年龄对老年人声阻抗值的影响。对20 ~ 29岁、60 ~ 69岁和70 ~ 79岁的受试者进行纯音、耳镜和阻抗测试。结果显示，静态依从性值随年龄的增长有轻微但不显著的下降趋势，这表明对老年人使用单独的依从性规范可能是不合理的。

Listener-assessed intelligibility of hearing aid-processed speech. 听者评估助听器处理语音的可理解性。

The capacity of listeners to yield reliable and valid preferences for hearing aid-processed speech was evaluated by the method of paired comparisons. Discourse by a male talker with General American dialect was processed by five hearing aids under conditions of quiet and a background of multitalker babble. Hearing aid-processed Revised Central Institute for the Deaf Sentences spoken by the same male talker and embedded in the same multitalker background were used as stimuli in establishing criterion intelligibility performance. All stimuli were tape-recorded and delivered via monaural earphone to 90 normal listeners. Test-retest results revealed reliability coefficients of 0.94 and 0.65 on the paired-comparison condition in quiet and in babble, respectively. A low-positive relationship was observed between responses on the two subjective tasks. Essentially negligible correlations were found between subjective preferences on these individual conditions and performance on the sentence task. General conditions are hypothesized under which paired-comparison judgments of intelligibility might be expected to correspond favorably with objective performance.

通过配对比较的方法来评估听者对助听器处理语音产生可靠和有效偏好的能力。用5个助听器对一名使用普通美国方言的男性说话人的话语进行处理。以同一男性说话者在同一多说话者背景下使用助听器处理的《聋人中央标准》句子作为刺激，建立标准可理解性表现。所有的刺激都被录下来，并通过单耳耳机传递给90名正常听众。重测结果显示，在安静和咿呀学语的配对比较条件下，信度系数分别为0.94和0.65。在两个主观任务上的反应之间观察到低正相关。在这些个体条件下的主观偏好与句子任务的表现之间的相关性基本上可以忽略不计。假设在一般条件下，可理解性的配对比较判断可能会与客观表现有利地对应。
