To determine the reliability and validity of the Quick Repeat-Recall Test (Q-RRT).
Within-subject repeated measures. Participants completed the Q-RRT at a speech level of 75 dB SPL in 2 noise configurations at signal-to-noise ratios of 5, 10, and 15 dB in a counterbalanced order, along with the full-RRT. The Q-RRT was repeated after 1-3 weeks to estimate within-session and between-session reliability. Participants also completed external validation measures relating speech-in-noise ability (Hearing-In-Noise Test, HINT), memory (Reading Span Test, RST; Forward Digit Span Test, DST-F), and noise acceptance (Tracking of Noise Tolerance, TNT).
Twenty-five normal-hearing listeners (mean age = 63.9 years).
Group and scores were similar between the full-RRT and the Q-RRT. However, and ratings were significantly poorer for the full-RRT than the Q-RRT. The average scores correlated with the HINT scores, while the scores correlated with the DST-F and RST scores. ratings also correlated with the TNT scores. Within-session and between-session test-retest reliability using intraclass correlation coefficients were fair-to-excellent (0.41-0.91) depending on the outcome measures.
The Q-RRT is a reliable and valid measure of speech-in-noise ability, working memory, listening effort, and noise acceptance.
确定快速重复回忆测试(Q-RRT)的信度和效度。
被试内重复测量。参与者在 75dB SPL 的语音水平下,以信号噪声比为 5、10 和 15dB 的两种噪声配置,按平衡顺序完成 Q-RRT 和完整 RRT。在 1-3 周后重复 Q-RRT,以估计会话内和会话间的可靠性。参与者还完成了与语音噪声能力(噪声测试、HINT)、记忆(阅读跨度测试、RST;正向数字跨度测试、DST-F)和噪声接受(噪声耐受跟踪、TNT)相关的外部验证测量。
25 名正常听力者(平均年龄=63.9 岁)。
全 RRT 和 Q-RRT 之间的组和得分相似。然而,全 RRT 的和评分明显低于 Q-RRT。平均评分与 HINT 评分相关,而评分与 DST-F 和 RST 评分相关。评分也与 TNT 评分相关。使用组内相关系数的会话内和会话间测试-重测可靠性因结果测量而异,从一般到优秀(0.41-0.91)。
Q-RRT 是一种可靠和有效的语音噪声能力、工作记忆、听力努力和噪声接受测量方法。
