Playing clear speech immediately before degraded speech improves its comprehension

Evidence

Specifically, standard trials are detected with a higher confidence level (paired t -test, p = 3.1 × 10‑5 ) while no difference emerged for deviant trials (p = 0.41). … The hypothesis that subjects understand more the noise-vocoded speech presented after the prime is met for standard trials, therefore the analysis is conducted on them. — Dijk, Pim van, Physiology, Psychoacoustics and…, 4409 (#exemplifies, via linked claim)
