Conversations in noise challenge the perceptual and cognitive capabilities of older adults and those listening in their second language (L2), and might force them to alter the balance between the contributions of bottom-up versus top-down processes involved in spoken language comprehension. We investigated the extent to which individual differences in vocabulary and reading comprehension skills are related to individual differences in spoken language comprehension.

520 $a Conversations in noise challenge the perceptual and cognitive capabilities of older adults and those listening in their second language (L2), and might force them to alter the balance between the contributions of bottom-up versus top-down processes involved in spoken language comprehension. We investigated the extent to which individual differences in vocabulary and reading comprehension skills are related to individual differences in spoken language comprehension.
520 $a In Experiments 1 and 2 younger and older L1s as well as young L2s listened to conversations in English played against a babble background and answered questions regarding their content. Individual hearing differences were compensated for by creating the same degree of difficulty in recognizing spoken words in babble. In Experiment, 1 two-talker conversations were played with or without either real or virtual spatial separation between the talkers and masker. The results showed that all listeners performed better when there appeared to be spatial separation. The contribution of vocabulary to dialogue comprehension was larger when spatial location was virtual rather than real, whereas the contribution of reading comprehension differed as a function of age and language proficiency. In Experiment 2, three-talker conversations, with or without spatial separation, were played in either quiet or against moderate or high babble. The contribution of individual differences in vocabulary and reading comprehension skills differed among the groups, and the babble level. In both experiments compensating for differences in spoken word recognition, minimized the differences in conversation comprehension among the groups. In addition, the manner in which spoken language comprehension is achieved is modulated by the auditory scene, and the listeners' age and linguistic status.
520 $a Experiment 3 investigated how the perceived compactness of sound sources affects spoken language recognition. Younger L1s, older L1s and young L2s were asked to repeat meaningless sentences played in noise, babble or speech, either with or without contrast of diffuseness between target and masker. Results showed a release of masking due to contrast, which was greater when the masker was speech compared with noise. Individual differences in speech recognition were related to individual differences in vocabulary and reading comprehension in young L2s and older L1s only.
