// Intelligibility of Emotional Speech in Chinese Older Adults: Effects of Age-Related Hearing Loss
本研究探討老化與聽力損失對普通話不同情緒語調詞彙辨識的影響｜結果顯示聽力損失與年齡增長顯著降低辨識準確度，尤以非中性和悲傷語調最為明顯｜語調聲調辨識優於音節組成，高頻聽損與老年人表現下降相關，強調情緒語調與聲調特徵在老年語音感知中的重要性。
// This study investigated how aging and hearing loss affect recognition of Mandarin words with different emotional prosodies. Four groups varying by age and hearing ability identified words spoken with five emotions, revealing that hearing loss and aging reduced recognition accuracy, especially for emotional prosodies other than neutral and sad. Lexical tones were recognized better than syllable components, and high-frequency hearing loss predicted poorer performance in older adults. The findings highlight the role of emotional prosody and tonal features in speech perception for aging populations.
