Consonant-Recognition Patterns and Self-Assessment of Hearing Handicap.

Hustedde, Carol Goldschmidt; Wiley, Terry L.

Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, v34 n6 p1397-409 Dec 1991

Two studies with 20 hearing-impaired and 10 normal-hearing adults found that the Hearing Performance Inventory-Revised was insensitive to differences in hearing-impaired listeners' consonant-recognition ability, whereas the Nonsense Syllable Test was sensitive to differences in overall consonant-recognition ability for normal-hearing and hearing-impaired listeners.
