Experiments on Binaural Hearing

Abstract

The authors report upon comparative measurements of articulation score in monaural v. binaural stimulation of normal ears when stimulated by two narrow bands of coherent filtered speech.

The results indicate that under certain conditions it is to be expected that perceptively impaired ears with sloping threshold audiograms will manifest a substantially better intelligibility for binaural selective amplification than in the case of an equivalent monaural stimulation.
