Intelligibility tests were performed by teachers and pupils in classrooms under a variety of (road traffic) noise conditions. The intelligibility scores are found to deteriorate at (indoor) noise levels exceeding a critical value of -15 dB with regard to a teacher's long-term (reverberant) speech le

An experiment was performed in which a noise containing frequencies from 10 Hz to 47 Hz was used to mask speech. The behaviour of speech intelligibility with speech presentation level and masking noise level was examined briefly. The infrasonic and low frequency masking noise did reduce the intelli
The speech transmission quality of the complete public address system at 14 Dutch railway stations is determined. The listener positions, at which the speech intelligibility is measured, are selected at the platforms, halls and interconnections according to a specially developed measuring procedure.
We performed two experiments comparing the effects of speech production and speech comprehension on simulated driving performance. In both experiments, participants completed a speech task and a simulated driving task under single-and dual-task conditions, with language materials matched for linguis
