Masked Sentence Recognition Assessed at Ascending Target-to-Masker Ratios: Modest Effects of Repeating Stimuli

Year: 2020

Type: article

Abstract: Masked sentence recognition is typically evaluated by presenting a novel stimulus on each trial. As a consequence, experiments calling for replicate estimates in multiple conditions require large corpora of stimuli. The present study evaluated the consequences of repeating sentence-plus-masker pairs at ascending target-to-masker ratios (TMRs). The hypothesis was that performance on each trial would be consistent with the cues available to the listener at the associated TMR, resulting in similar estimates of threshold and slope for procedures using novel vs. repeated sentences within an ascending-TMR block of trials.
