Lilliput: speech perception in speech-weighted noise and in quiet in young children.

The same materials reveal performance differences between 4 and 5 years of age (and adults), both in quiet and speech-weighted noise using an open-set response format. This relatively small yet significant difference in SRT for a gap of only 1 year shows a developmental change for word recognition in speech-weighted noise and in quiet in the first decade of life.The study is part of the protocol registered on ClinicalTrials.gov (ID = NCT04063748).
