Abstract
It is now clear that a degradation in frequency resolution represents a major consequence of sensorineural hearing loss (Hoekstra and Ritsma, 1977; Pick, Evans and Wilson, 1977; Zwicker and Schorn, 1978; Florentine et al., 1980; Tyler, Wood and Fernandes, 1982; Hall, Tyler and Fernandes, 1984; Moore, 1985). This degradation may contribute to the poor speech recognition in some hearing-impaired patients (Tyler, 1979; Dreschler and Plomp, 1980; Gorga and Abbas, 1981; Festen and Plomp, 1983; Stelmachowicz et al., 1985a). Several studies have observed correlations between poor word recognition in noise and impaired frequency resolution.
