The effect of passive and electronic amplitude-sensitive hearing protectors on the detection of a warning signal

An experiment was conducted to study earmuff wearers’ signal detection in noise performance and perceptions of comfort and acceptability with two amplitude-sensitive earmuffs as compared to their conventional counterparts. Passive and electronic amplitude-sensitive earmuffs were tested, represented...
