Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary outcome is the potential reduction of listening effort by dual streaming. Listening effort assessed by pupil dilation is expected to be significantly lower with bimodal dual streaming as opposed to acoustically delivered telephone speech.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary outcome is speech intelligibility which is expected to improve with dual streaming compared to auditory delivery of telephone speech.
