Articulation-Testing Methods: Consonantal Differentiation with a Closed-Response Set
Abstract
The development and evaluation of a new speech-intelligibility test suitable for routine use by operational personnel in determining the performance level of speech-communication systems is described. The format used is similar to that described for a rhyme test but makes use of a closed-response set. An experiment was performed to determine the general reliability of the test materials when administered to U.S. Air Force enlisted personnel under a wide range of signal-to-noise ratios. Testing of 18 listeners over a period of 30 days showed that repeated exposure to the materials did not change the levels of average response in any appreciable way. Analysis of the responses to individual phonetic elements shows that the test can be useful for diagnostic study as well as for over-all evaluation of communication systems. Talker differences that appeared during the experiment and the statistical reliability and sensitivity of the materials are analyzed and discussed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
