Study Summary

This trial looks at how well people can understand speech when it is filtered to remove high frequency sounds.

This trial is for people who have normal hearing within the range of 250-8000 Hz and are native speakers of American English. It's not suitable for those with any level of hearing loss or non-native speakers of American English.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is looking at how reducing high-frequency sounds (above the normal range) affects understanding speech. Participants will listen to speech that has been altered to remove these high frequencies to see if it changes their ability to understand what's being said.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves listening exercises, there are no direct physical side effects expected from participating in this research.
