A Dutch version of a dual-task paradigm for measuring listening effort : a pilot study regarding its short-term test-retest reliability

Objective: This study investigated the short-term test-retest reliability of a Dutch dual-task (DT) paradigm for measuring listening effort. Listening effort refers to the attention and cognitive resources necessary for understanding speech and can therefore provide information over and beyond the traditional speech audiometry outcomes. Such information can be beneficial in clinical practice as a part of the audiological test battery and therapeutic interventions such as hearing aids. To use this Dutch DT paradigm in further research and clinical practice, studies regarding its reliability are... Mehr ...
