Abstract

Intelligibility scores obtained with the Modified Rhyme Test (MRT), Oklahoma University Closed‐Response Test (OUCRT), and the California Consonant Test (CCT) were compared. The word lists were recorded by a male speaker with general American English dialect. Twenty‐four normal‐hearing subjects heard the three lists monaurally at most comfortable loudness level. Four listening conditions, namely, lowband (100–1500 Hz), highband (2000–6000 Hz), speech‐in‐noise (S/N ratio = 0 dB), and wideband (100–6000 Hz) were employed. The mean intelligibility scores for the three lists across the four listening conditions ranged from 99.2% through 45.3%. An analysis of these findings from practical considerations will be discussed.
