Analysis of Incorrect Responses to an Unknown Message Set

Abstract
The incorrect responses of listeners to an unknown message set of 144 words, presented in noise, were analyzed. Attention was focused upon the word‐frequency distribution of the incorrect responses and upon the proportion of the incorrect responses that were nonsense responses. Both measures were affected by the speech‐to‐noise ratio, but were approximately independent of the stimulus‐word frequency.
