Developmental Changes in Speech Frequency Weighting in Children
Frequency band importance weights undergo developmental changes in children. Models used to predict speech recognition in children may need to be updated to account for these developmental changes; otherwise, speech intelligibility estimates will likely overestimate speech recognition accuracy. Additional work is needed to determine whether the developmental trajectory of frequency importance weights is affected by hearing loss in children who are hard of hearing.
