Listening for intelligibility in disordered speech involves a complex interaction of factors, including listener experience. This study examines intelligibility as perceived by two groups (experienced and inexperienced listeners) in interpreting deaf speech.

Results indicate that experienced listeners interpret more of disordered speech than inexperienced, but while experience appears to be a factor in intelligibility judgements, it does not alone guarantee higher intelligibility rating.
