Callsign Acquisition Test (CAT): speech intelligibility in noise.

abstract：:One hundred eighty-four deaf children were presented auditory, visual (speechreading), and combined stimuli. Some subjects showed an enhancement of their processing abilities in the combined mode, some demonstrated no improvement, and others yielded reduced scores. A method of data analysis is proposed which could con...
