The aim of this study is to validate a Swiss German children's language test. Standard values for the speech intelligibility of Swiss German monosyllables and disyllables for children with normal hearing aged 4-6 years are recorded.
Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Enrollment
180
The hearing screening ensures normal hearing before enrollment. The speech reception threshold for swiss german mono- and bisyllable words is determined in an adaptive procedure.

Speech reception threshold for monosyllabic words
Speech Reception Threshold (SRT) measured in decibel sound pressure level (dB SPL), with lower scores indicating better hearing
Time frame: Single visit at baseline
Speech reception threshold for bisyllabic words
Speech Reception Threshold (SRT) measured in decibel sound pressure level (dB SPL), with lower scores indicating better hearing
Time frame: Single visit at baseline
Speech reception threshold in noise for monosyllabic words
Speech Reception Threshold (SRT) measured in decibel signal-to-noise ratio (dB SNR) with lower scores indicating better hearing
Time frame: Single visit at baseline
Speech reception threshold in noise for bisyllabic words
Speech Reception Threshold (SRT) measured in decibel signal-to-noise ratio (dB SNR) with lower scores indicating better hearing
Time frame: Single visit at baseline
