ABSTRACT

In this study, a dichotic digit test was applied in order to identify binaural integration. The subjects for this study included 46 male and 54 female aged between 19-30 years. We tested for dichotic listening skills of single-digit numbers, double-digit numbers, and English numbers. Then, we investigated that the accuracy of digits recognition with respect to gender, types of stimuli. Also, we investigated the error frequency and the error rate according to multi paired digit sets. This study shows that there was statistically significant difference of three different types of digit stimuli: single-digit numbers, double-digit numbers, and English numbers, while there was no significant difference in gender. And this study also shows the performance of 5-9 pair, 1-2 pair, 3-4 pair decreased significantly. This results prove that dichotic digit listening skills in adults are not influenced by gender and that dichotic digit listening skills in adults are influenced by the phonetic feature of mono digit stimuli.
