Most comfortable loudness shift as a measure of speech attenuation by hearing protectors / Tomasz letowski... [et al.]

Sumario: The object of the study was to determine the most comfortable loudness (MCL) shifts for speech heard by listeners wearing HPDs in quiet. The authors deliberately used a quiet condition to determine whether MCL shift is sensitive enough to be a measure of HPD attenuation data obtained with the standardized real ear at the threshold (REAT) procedure. In addition, all three fitting procedures discussed above have been used in order to assess their effects on MCL determination
