RaSTI, Rapid Speech Transmission
Index, represents another way to measure and express intelligibility.
While Alcon’s expresses intelligibility in terms of
articulation loss, RaSTI expresses intelligibility on a scale
of 0 to 1 with 1 representing perfect.
EASE calculates RaSTI using Alcon’s formulas modified
with Farrel Becker equations.
Like Alcon’s, RaSTI can be calculated at 500 Hz, 1000
Hz and 2000 Hz using any one of the three Alcon’s formulas. |
