Audio files and raw data for Perceptually Robust English Sentence Test - Revised (PRESTO-R).

<p>Test material comes from the PRESTO (Perceptually Robust English Sentence Test Open-set; Gilbert et al. 2013), a high variability test containing multiple speakers with a variety of dialects.  PRESTO contains 20 lists, with 18 sentences in each (9 male and 9 female talkers).  Keyword scoring is used and each list has 76 keywords.  In the process of establishing the feasibility of the PRESTO, it was realized that lists were not equated for performance.  Therefore, 16 young, normal-hearing listeners were tested on all of the sentences at a -3 dB SNR in random order.  After data collection, sentences between lists were swapped, while controlling for gender and keywords, to create 19 lists with equal performance.  This newly balanced test is referred to as PRESTO-R, for revised.</p> <p><a href="http://web.ics.purdue.edu/~alexan14/Publications_files/Plotkowski_Alexander_2016.pdf">Plotkowski, A., and Alexander, J.
