Spectral Characteristics of Speech at the Ear: Implications for Amplification in Children

Spectral Characteristics of Speech at the Ear: Implications for Amplification in Children

A study examined the long- and short-term spectral characteristics of speech simultaneously recorded at the ear and at a reference microphone position. Twenty adults and 26 children (ages 2-4) produced 9 short sentences. Children's vocal levels were low in amplitude at both the ear and at the m...
