The Influence of Target and Masker Characteristics on Infants' and Adults' Detection of Speech

Conclusions The relative effects of the masker on target detection by infants and adults depend on the target to be detected. Thus, conclusions drawn about differences between infants and adults in the mechanisms responsible for masking will depend on the stimuli. Standardization of speech stimuli in developmental research would help clarify the nature of infants' segregation difficulties.Supplemental Materialhttps://doi.org/10.23641/asha.5613139
