Warren R, Bashford Jr J, Lenz P
J Acoust Soc Am . 2018 May; 143(4):EL305. PMID: 29716300
A previous study [Warren, Bashford, and Lenz (2017). J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 141, EL222-EL227] reported that arrays of subcritical width rectangular speech bands can produce near ceiling sentence intelligibility. The...

J Acoust Soc Am . 2017 Oct; 142(3):EL299. PMID: 28964061
Speech intelligibility normally declines at high intensities, but this "rollover" effect decreases when steep filtering reduces sentences to an array of rectangular subcritical bands. The present study found that interpolating...

J Acoust Soc Am . 2017 Apr; 141(3):EL222. PMID: 28372079
Removal of transition bands from narrow speech passbands through very steep filtering has made it possible to isolate and determine (for the first time) intelligibility of critical bandwidth as well...

Bashford Jr J, Warren R, Lenz P
J Acoust Soc Am . 2015 Apr; 137(4):EL340-6. PMID: 25920887
Three experiments examined the intelligibility enhancement produced when noise bands flank high intensity rectangular band speech. When white noise flankers were added to the speech individually at a low spectrum...

J Acoust Soc Am . 2013 Aug; 134(2):EL244-50. PMID: 23927232
Two rectangular 1/3-octave passbands were derived from different spectral regions of everyday sentences, with the intelligibility of one band approximately twice the others. Both passbands were then filtered to produce...

J Acoust Soc Am . 2013 Jul; 134(1):EL119-25. PMID: 23862899
Three experiments examined the intelligibility enhancement produced when noise bands flank high intensity narrowband speech. Enhancement was unaffected by noise gating (experiment 1), ruling out peripheral adaptation as a source,...

Proc Meet Acoust . 2012 May; 12. PMID: 22639703
Intelligibility of narrowband speech declines considerably at high intensities, but substantial recovery from this "rollover" occurs when flanking noise bands are added. The present study employed two types of added...

Acoust Res Lett Online . 2011 Sep; 1(2):31-36. PMID: 21886459
Warren et al. (1995) reported over 90% intelligibility for everyday sentences reduced to a 1/3-octave band (center frequency 1,500 Hz, slopes 100 dB/octave, slow-rms peak levels 75 dB). To investigate...

Proc Meet Acoust . 2011 May; 6:50002. PMID: 21572945
Based on their own findings and reports from other laboratories, H. Müsch and S. Buus [H. Müsch and S. Buus, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 109, 2896-2909 (2001)] suggested that when...

Proc Meet Acoust . 2011 Feb; 6(1):60002-600028. PMID: 21297885
When a recorded verbal stimulus repeats over and over, adaptation occurs and listeners hear competing forms. Reports of these "verbal transformations" (VTs) were obtained for 36 consonant-vowel (CV) syllables that...
