The impact of hearing loss on the ability to participate in verbal communication can be directly quantified through the use of speech audiometry. Advances in technology and the associated reduction in background noise interference for hearing aids have allowed the reproduction of very complex acoustic environments, analogous to those in which conversations occur in daily life. These capabilities have led to the creation of numerous advanced speech audiometry measures, test procedures and environments, far beyond the presentation of isolated words in an otherwise noise-free testing booth.
The aim of this study was to develop a set of systematic criteria for the appropriate selection of speech audiometric material, which are presented in this article in relationship to the most widely used test procedures.
Before an appropriate speech test can be selected from the numerous procedures available, the precise aims of the evaluation should be basically defined. Specific test characteristics, such as validity, objectivity, reliability and sensitivity are important for the selection of the correct test for the specific goals.
A concrete understanding of the goals of the evaluation as well as of specific test criteria play a crucial role in the selection of speech audiometry testing procedures.
听力损失对参与言语交流能力的影响可通过言语测听法直接量化。技术进步以及助听器背景噪声干扰的相应减少，使得能够再现非常复杂的声学环境，类似于日常生活中对话发生的环境。这些能力催生了众多先进的言语测听方法、测试程序和环境，远远超出了在无噪声测试 booth 中呈现孤立单词的范畴。
本研究的目的是制定一套系统的标准，用于适当选择言语测听材料，本文将其与最广泛使用的测试程序相关联进行呈现。
在从众多可用程序中选择适当的言语测试之前，应基本明确评估的确切目标。特定的测试特性，如有效性、客观性、可靠性和敏感性，对于为特定目标选择正确的测试很重要。
对评估目标以及特定测试标准的具体理解在言语测听测试程序的选择中起着关键作用。
