摘要
背景:噪声中的语音识别是听力损失患者面临的困难之一,而且随着年龄的增长,听力损失的程度也在增加。最近开发的西班牙噪声语音听觉测试(Prueba Auditiva de Habla en Ruido en Español, PAHRE)可以识别噪声中的这些可懂度困难。本研究旨在评估听力损失者在噪声中的语音识别能力,并测试伦巴第效应的益处:研究对象为 104 名听力障碍者,年龄从 37 岁到 98 岁不等。评估变量包括年龄、听力损失程度、是否存在高频下降以及接受正规教育的年限:结果:得出了轻度和中度听力损失的信噪比函数心理测量曲线以及语音接收阈值与年龄组的函数关系。结果表明,语言接收阈值随着年龄和听力损失程度的增加而增加,70 岁以后尤为明显。此外,研究还发现,年龄、听力损失程度和受教育程度这三个综合因素在预测言语接收阈值的变化时占很大比例:因此,西班牙噪声言语听觉测试可作为诊断、监测、听力康复计划和助听器验配的有用临床工具。
Analysis of the Spanish Auditory Test of Speech in Noise (PAHRE) in a Population with Hearing Loss.
Background: Speech recognition in noise is one of the difficulties faced by people with hearing loss that increases with age. The recently developed Spanish Auditory Test of Speech in Noise (Prueba Auditiva de Habla en Ruido en Español, PAHRE) allows for the identification of these intelligibility difficulties in noise. The aim of this study was to assess speech recognition in noise in people with hearing loss and to test the benefits of the Lombard effect.
Methods: The participants were 104 people with hearing difficulties, ranging in age from 37 to 98 years. The variables age, degree of hearing loss, presence of high-frequency dropout, and years of formal education were assessed.
Results: Psychometric curves were obtained as a function of signal-to-noise ratio as well as threshold values of speech reception as a function of age group for mild and moderate hearing loss. The results indicated that the speech reception threshold increased with both age and the degree of hearing loss, becoming particularly significant after the age of 70. Furthermore, it was found that the combined factors of age, degree of hearing loss, and educational level predicted a high percentage of the variability in the speech reception threshold.
Conclusions: Therefore, the Spanish Auditory Test of Speech in Noise could be a useful clinical tool for diagnosis, monitoring, auditory rehabilitation planning, and hearing aid fitting.
