Challenges for Children with Cochlear Implants in Everyday Listening Scenarios: The Competitive Effect of Noise and Face Masks on Speech Intelligibility

Speech intelligibility (SI) tests under realistic acoustic scenarios are complex tasks to perform.Optimal acoustics, in terms of reverberation and Bar Cart noise, are thus needed.This is particularly true in the presence of young hard-of-hearing (HoH) children equipped with cochlear implants who need speech to be highly intelligible to learn.During
