Abstract

“HiST taleaudiometri”, a new material for speech audiometry measurements, has been made available from the Audiology Programme at Sør-Trøndelag University College, the institution that teaches the Norwegian audiologists. The material will replace the old Norwegian speech audiometry material made by Quist-Hanssen in the late 1950s. The test material is constructed from four different parts – five-word sentences, three-word utterances, monosyllabic words and digit triplets. Details about the development of the five-word sentences, simulations of speech audiometry measurements and special tests included in the set are given.
