Combined fixed-/roving-level tracks for a 2000-Hz target in a 1/3-octave masker centered at 2000 Hz at 80 dB SPL. A, Listener with NH, S115. B, Listener with mild SNHL, S63. The rove effect is the difference in threshold (SNR) between the roving-level and the fixed-level conditions. NH indicates normal hearing; RE, rove effect; SNHL, sensorineural hearing loss; SNR, signal-to-noise ratio.
