Derivation of Twenty-Five-Word PB Lists

Abstract
Four 25-word lists were derived from PAL PB-50 lists 1A and 2A. The words for each list were selected so as to maintain a balance in terms of item difficulty, range of difficulty, phonetic composition, and frequency of occurrence. The words were given to 30 male subjects with sensory-neural hearing losses and scores compared. The resulting lists correlated highly with full lists (.86 to .92) and with each other (.83 to 97).
