Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Average signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) values from the Thai Word-In-Noise test (Thai-WIN) will be established across different age groups of Thai individuals with normal hearing After the successful synthesis of the Thai-LTASS noise Thai-WIN results (dB SNR)	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
To assess age-related differences in average SNR from the Thai-WIN test among normal-hearing Thai individuals After the successful synthesis of the Thai-LTASS noise Statistical analysis	—
