Simulated Hearing Loss on Speech Recognition, Flight Performance, and Workload in Aviators
Findings suggest hearing loss negatively impacts speech recognition and flight performance, especially under high workloads. These results support the importance of addressing hearing loss in aviators. Further research is needed to determine if the clinically adapted Modified Rhyme Test can reflect the impact of hearing loss on aviator performance.
