The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each

24、member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International

25、 Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards ad

26、opted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of pat

27、ent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.ISO 8253-3 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 43, Acoustics.This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 8253-3:1996), which has been technically revised.ISO 8253 consists of the fo

28、llowing parts, under the general title Acoustics Audiometric test methods: Part 1: Pure-tone air and bone conduction threshold audiometry Part 2: Sound field audiometry with pure-tone and narrow-band test signals Part 3: Speech audiometry ISO 2012 All rights reserved vBS EN ISO 8253-3:2012ISO 8253-3

29、:2012(E)IntroductionSpeech audiometry is used for the assessment of hearing in connection with diagnostic evaluation and audiological rehabilitation.The results of speech audiometry depend on the speech material and test method used. This part of ISO 8253 sets conditions for speech materials in orde

30、r to assure minimum requirements of precision and comparability between different tests using different speech materials including materials in different languages. It also specifies procedures to be used when testing speech recognition.vi ISO 2012 All rights reservedBS EN ISO 8253-3:2012Acoustics A

31、udiometric test methods Part 3: Speech audiometry1 ScopeThis part of ISO 8253 specifies basic methods for speech recognition tests for audiological applications.In order to ensure minimum requirements of precision and comparability between different test procedures including speech recognition tests

32、 in different languages, this part of ISO 8253 specifies requirements for the composition, validation and evaluation of speech test materials, and the realization of speech recognition tests. This part of ISO 8253 does not specify the contents of the speech material because of the variety of languag

33、es.Furthermore, this part of ISO 8253 also specifies the determination of reference values and fulfilment requirements for the realization and manner of presentation.This part of ISO 8253 specifies procedures and requirements for speech audiometry with the recorded test material being presented by a

34、ir conduction through an earphone, or from a loudspeaker for sound field audiometry. Methods for using noise either for masking the non-test ear or as a competing sound are described.Some test subjects, for example children, can require amended test procedures not specified in this part of ISO 8253.
