Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the sensitivity of the speech intelligibility index (SII) to the assumed speech dynamic range (DR) in different languages and with different types of stimuli. Method: Intelligibility prediction uses the absolute transfer function (ATF) to map the SII value to the predicted intelligibility for a given stimuli. To evaluate the sensitivity of the predicted intelligibility to the assumed DR, ATF-transformed SII scores for English (words), Korean (sentences), and Mandarin (sentences) were derived for DRs ranging from 10 dB to 60 dB. Results: Increasing the assumed DR caused steeper ATFs for all languages. However, high correlation coefficients between predicted and measured intelligibility scores were observed for DRs from 20 dB to 60 dB for ATFs in English, Korean, and Mandarin. Conclusions: Results of the present study indicate that the intelligibility computed from the SII is not sensitive to the assumed DR. The 30-dB DR commonly used in computing the SII is thus a reasonable assumption that produces accurate predictions for different languages and different types of stimuli.
