A secondary goal of the study was to determine whether the binaural advantage (listening to speech-in-noise with two ears versus one) and the binocular advantage (reading with two eyes versus one) were related. Thirty-nine native English-speaking young adults with normal pure-tone thresholds from 250-4000 Hz participated in the study. The Hearing in Noise Test (HINT) was used to evaluate speech recognition in noise ability. The Test of Silent Contextual Reading Fluency (TOSCRF-2) was used to evaluate reading ability. No significant relationships were found between speech-in-noise thresholds and reading scores. Additionally, no significant relationships were found between the binaural advantage and the binocular advantage.application/pdfaudiologyspeech recognition in noise abilityreading abilityThe Relationship Between Speech Recognition in Noise and Reading AbilitiesHonors Thesis2019-06-14
