STUDY OF PERFORMANCE VARIATION OF SOME SEGMENTAL SPEECH
CONTRAST IN TELUGU ON CHILDREN WITH HEARING LOSS STUDYING IN
SPECIAL SCHOOLS AND REGULAR SCHOOLS
ABSTRACT
Introduction: Phoneme is the smallest linguistic unit of a language. Phoneme perception is a form of auditory perception in which the listener and speaker distinguish among the sound
contrasts in a language. Erber (1972) concluded that a group with losses of 70 to 95 dB HL had
difficulty with the auditory perception of place of articulation but not of manner or voicing. In
contrast, a group with losses above 95 dB HL had difficulty with the perception of all consonant
features.
Aim of the study: The present study is an attempt to understand the pattern of phonemic contrast
discrimination ability in native Telugu speaking children with hearing impairment studying inregular schools and special schools for children with hearing impairment as compared to
matched children with normal hearing.
Methodology: The present study examines the significant difference in the perception of selectedvowel and consonant contrasts between hearing impaired children (integrated and segregated
hearing impaired) as compared to normal hearing children. All the three groups were included
for study based on certain preset criteria explained in detail later in chapter on methodology. 16
children as subjects were selected for the each group (hearing impaired group). Minimal
contrasts in Telugu language were selected and audio recorded in the sound treated booth. The
recorded stimuli were presented through the loudspeaker to the participating subjects. The
participants were instructed to match the similar & contrast words. The obtained data werescored and analyzed with appropriate statistics.
Results and Discussion: The result showed that normal children performed better than children
with hearing loss (integrated and segregated hearing impaired) on phonemic contrast. Thevowel contrast perceptions were better than consonant contrast. Among the hearing impaired
children, the integrated hearing impaired children performed better than segregated hearingimpaired. Among the vowel perception mid vowel are perceived better than other contrast with
children with hearing impaired. The perception of consonant contrast were poorer than vowel
contrast, among the consonant contrast voicing were perceived better than other contrast with
the children with hearing impaired group.
Conclusion: The children with hearing impairment studying in regular school performed
better than the children with hearing impairment studying in special school showed that the
early intervention more appropriate intervention, possible the children with hearing impairment
studying in regular school could have obtained higher mean scores. Early intervention and
appropriate intervention will improve the perception of hearing impairment.

Introduction
Phoneme is the smallest linguistic unit of a language. Phoneme within a particularlanguage helps in differentiating one word from another. Warren (1976) defined phoneme as
merely a linguistic unit, which has no perceptual reality in speech perception. A minimal pair is
defined as two words of distinct meaning which exhibit different segments at one point but
identical segments at all other points (Trask, 1996). Auditory discrimination we mean an ability
to discriminate between the sounds at the articulatory, acoustics and other cognitive levels.
Nicolosi et al (1978) defined discrimination as the process of distinguishing among the speech
sounds or words by differentiating them as same or different.
Phoneme perception is a form of auditory perception in which the listener and speaker
distinguish among the sound contrasts in a language. Minimal pairs (Hyman, 1975) is a
traditional type of evidence used to ascertain the phonemic inventory of a language (Bloomfield,
1933), as well as the specific phonological relationship between two given speech sounds.
Vowels are produced without obstruction in the airflow. Perception of vowels is easier
because they are voiced and relatively high in intensity. Vowels are more accessible to auditory
analysis by virtue of their longer duration. Consonants are produced with the obstruction in the
airflow. They vary by the place of articulation, manner of articulation and voicing. Consonant
being less accessible to auditory analysis due to their brevity and relatively low intensity and
held briefly in auditory memory (Stevens, 2006).
(Kuhl et al. 1992) found that the segmentation is acquired during the first year of life. In
particular, vowel categories are established at around 6 months and consonant categories at
around 12 months (Werker et al, 1981).
Eimas et al (1971) studied the infants from one to four months of age in order to assess
their ability to differentiate stop consonant on the basis of voicing difference. Stimuli were /ba/
and /pa/ the result revealed that infants discriminated stimuli pairs best when they came from
differing adult phoneme categories.

Erber (1972) concluded that a group with losses of 70 to 95 dB HL had difficulty with the
auditory perception of place of articulation but not of manner or voicing. In contrast, a group
with losses above 95 dB HL had difficulty with the perception of all consonant features.
Boothroyd (1984) studied the amplified speech is accessible to children with varying
degrees of sensorineural hearing loss. The values of hearing loss at which scores fell to 50%
(after correction for chance) were 75 dB HL for consonant place; 85 dB HL for initial consonant
voicing; 90 dB HL for initial consonant continuance; 100 dB HL for vowel place (front-back);
105 dB HL for talker sex; 115 dB HL for syllabic pattern; and in excess of 115 dB HL for vowel
height.Crandell et al (1998) The results from this investigation indicated the children with
sensorineural hearing loss obtained the poorest perception scores. Decreased teacher position
significantly improved speech-perception scores in all acoustical environments.
Review of literature shows that the performances of contrastive system are likely to be
different in hearing impaired children studying in special school and regular school. There is
scattered research on hearing impaired children studying in regular school, and there is no study
compares the performance of children with hearing impairment studying in regular school and
special school. Hence taking this into consideration the present study is an attempt to understand
the pattern of phonemic contrast discrimination ability in native Telugu speaking children with
hearing impairment studying in the regular schools and special schools for children with hearing
impairment as compared to matched children with normal hearing.
The present study aims to study the performance of phonemic contrast discrimination
ability in children with hearing loss studying in regular school and special school. The present
study was undertaken to test the following hypotheses: (1) There will be no significant difference
in the perception of selected vowel contrasts between hearing impaired children studying in
normal school and special school. (2) There will be no significant difference in the perception of
selected consonant contrasts between hearing impaired children studying in normal school and
special school.

Methodology
The development sequence of phonemic contrast discrimination is likely to be different indifferent language because of variation in phonemic system between different languages have
different phonemic system. Telugu is a language spoken as mother tongue in the state of Andhra
Pradesh in south India and belongs to indo Dravidian group of language. One of the
characteristic features of the Telugu language is that majority of Telugu words end in open
syllables. Also Telugu has numerous long consonant and clusters in the word final position. In
native Telugu language words clusters are not common in the word initial position.

hearing impairment studying at regular school (16) in group II. It was first intended to select 24
children with hearing impairment each in group II & group III children with normal hearing. It
could not be achieved as integrated children in regular school did not become available.
Stimuli:
The words in Telugu were considered to have minimum contrast based on vowel height,
vowel place, consonant place, consonant manner and consonant voicing. Most of the test items
were of two syllables length. Selection could not be based on the frequency & familiarity of the
words but was made on meaningfulness of words and the contrast they made with each contrast.
Three pairs of word were taken in each phonemic contrast.
Procedure of test stimuli:
In order to know the inter stimulus time interval needed between presentations of
each contrast. The material was first tested on 20 normal hearing children. The normal hearing
subjects were presented the test stimulus at the most comfortable level of hearing through live
voice presentation technique. The stimuli were presented through speech audiometer to the age
matched hearing children. Stimuli were presented in the A-B-X paradigm. That is it could be
ABA, ABB, where A & B are two words which could occur with the contrast X randomly as
ABA, ABB. The subjects were instructed to hear the three words. The average time taken by the
children to hear & perform the task of matching X with A or B and responded by naming the
number was noted down and stimuli were recorded in the same manner.
It was found that 5 seconds inter stimuli time gap and 2 seconds time gap between
contrasts was sufficient to perform the task by most children with normal hearing. The same
timing that is 5 seconds between stimulus and 2 seconds between contrasts was maintained
throughout the recorded stimulus. The words were selected in random order and recorded. The
order effects were taken care of during recording of the stimulus.

The speech materials were spoken by a female native Telugu speaker with general dialect
and recorded. Females are known to have higher fundamental frequencies compared to voice of
males and females voice is considered to be clearer and pleasant as compared to males.
Therefore female voice was preferred for presentation of test stimuli in the study. Live voice
speech presentation technique was used for administering the words to find psychometric
function of selected words A 24 years native Telugu speaker spoke the test words: she first
before administering test to normal hearing subjects practiced presentation of words such that the
VU meter needle of the audiometer ( GSI 61) will come to the same position as for a calibrating
tone of 1000Hz and 60 dB would bring it to approximately 5 seconds inter stimulus time gap was
given between test items: each item was presented please say and the tested word followed. Thesubjects repeated the test words only.
The words were recorded clearly and naturally. The words were recorded in the sound
treated room using praat software. Each contrast was recorded in A-B-X paradigm. The speaker
was given training to control the loudness and the appropriate inflection using speech audiometer
UV meter. The microphone was kept 2 inch away from the speakers mouth to avoid noise burst
during recording. Adobe Audition 3.0 software was used to remove the background noise from
the recorded stimuli. The inter time interval and between the contrasts time interval were kept at
5 seconds and 2 seconds respectively using this software.
Test administration:
The recorded stimuli were presented through Philips loud speaker connected to the laptop
(Lenovo Y3000, 500 series). The loudness was kept at most comfortable level of hearing for
each of the subject of the group. The participants were instructed to listen carefully and expected
to find similar word in that contrast (A-B-X paradigm.). The subject was expected to compare X
with A or B to indentify the similar contrast. The familiarizations on the task were given to each
subject using similar material but not test material. The practice responses were not included for
the analysis. The subjects responses were noted down by the experimenter in the record sheet
and the responses were analyzed. Scoring was done by assigning 1 point to correct response and
0 point to wrong response. Thus the maximum score including all items could only be 33.

Results & Discussion
Performance of normal hearing and children with hearing impairment on vowel contrast:
In the vowel contrast the children with normal hearing and children with hearing
impaired (integrated hearing impaired children and segregated hearing impaired children) were
instructed to discriminated between the contrast whether the perception of vowel contrast were
same in both the groups. They were evaluated on vowel contrast. The mean and standard
deviation evaluated for all the vowel contrast are presented in the table 3 and figure 1. The group
II & group III (integrated H.I & segregated H.I) showed difference in the performance on the
vowel contrast. Both the group performed poor in same contrast. Among those High vs low
contrast, both the group showed better performance than the other contrast. The mean values are
1.88, 1.605 respectively. Group I and group II showed poorer performance with front vs back
and high vs low contrast than high vs mid contrast but there is statistically significant difference
observed between the groups. Group II (Integrated H.I) performed better than the group III
(segregated H.I).

contrast. (F vs L-Front vs Low, H vs L High vs Low, H vs L- High vs Mid)
The normal hearing children performed good as per mean and standard deviation.
Integrated hearing impaired children showed poor response as compared to normal hearing
children as per the mean and standard deviation value as presented in the table 3. The segregated
hearing impaired children performed poorer than normal hearing children and integrated hearing
impaired children based on the mean and standard deviation scores. The mean and standard
deviation are shown in the table 3. GLM 2- way repeated measures of ANOVA were used to

normal hearing children with poorer mean and standard deviation value as shown in the table 3.
The segregated hearing impaired children performed poorer than normal hearing children and

Barzaghi & Madureira (2005) found that similar found as the present findings. They
found that bilabial versus velar showed better performance on the perception of the consonant
place contrast. Bilabial versus alveolar and labiodental versus alveolar palatal showed poorer
performance than the bilabial versus velar contrast. Boothroyd (1984) reported that the voicing
and manner of articulation was perceived better than the place of articulation by children with
hearing impairment studying in special school. Voicing and manner of articulation would be
perceived better with the low frequency hearing. Ling (1966) reported that the use of low
frequency hearing increased in voiced versus voiceless contrast and the manner of articulation.
Place cues, as opposed to voicing or manner cues, have been shown consistently to be more
susceptible to the deleterious effects of noise and hearing loss (Miller and Nicely, 1955;
Rabinowitz et al., 1996 cited in Grant et al 1998.
3. Manner of Articulation:
As can be observed in the table 3 the normal hearing children performed better with themean value. Children with hearing impairment in regular schools showed poorer response as
compared to normal hearing children with poorer mean and standard deviation value. The
children with hearing impairment (segregated hearing impaired) performed poorer than normal
hearing children and also poorer than the integrated hearing impaired children with poorer mean
and standard deviation scores. Among the hearing impaired children i.e. integrated hearing
impaired and segregated hearing impaired they performed better stop versus fricatives and their
mean values are 1.50 and 1.31 respectively, other contrast such as oral versus nasal performed

Summary & Conclusion
The results of the vowel contrast revealed that the perception of vowel is easy when
compared with consonant because the vowels are voiced and relatively high in intensity and they
are produced without obstruction in the airflow. Vowels are more accessible to auditory analysis
by virtue of their longer duration and may hold in the auditory memory. Among the vowel
contrast the perception of mid-vowels are better than the other vowel because the mid vowel are
produced with higher intensity when we compare with other vowel contrast such as front versus
back vowel and high versus low vowel. This could be the possible reason that the children with
hearing impairment could perceive the high versus mid contrast then the other contrast in the
vowel perception. The children with hearing impairment studying in regular school showed
better performance than the children hearing impairment studying in special school.
The results of the present study revealed that there is a significant difference between the
normal hearing children and children with hearing impairment studying in regular school and
special school in the perception of consonant contrast. Further the results suggest that the
children with hearing impairment studying in normal school performed better than the children
with hearing impairment studying in special school and poorer than the children with normal
hearing children. The children with hearing impairment studying in special school performed
poorer than the children with normal hearing and children with hearing impairment studying in
regular school. Therefore the 2nd
hypothesis is rejected.
The following conclusions can be drawn from the results of the present study:
The perception of vowel contrast was found to be better than the consonant contrast. Among
the vowel contrast the high versus mid vowel were perceived better than the perception of front
versus back vowel and high versus low vowel. The children with hearing impairment studying in
regular school performed better than the children with hearing impairment in special school.
Among the consonant contrast the voicing contrast perceived better than the other contrast such
as place of articulation, manner of articulation.
