“…They were evaluated by general audiological assessments, which included otoscopic examination, acoustic immittance testing (by clarinet middle-ear analyzer), pure tone audiometry (using AC33 audiometer, Interacoustics, Denmark), and WINP test (with an audio file). The HMWs were selected for the WINP test, which has a consonant-vowel-consonant (CVC) format (Additional file 1: Appendix 1) [1,2,4]. Since there are 6 vowels in the Iranian Persian language, 6 lists of 25-HMWs were used.…”

“…Phonological processing includes features of pitch, accent, and rhythm of speech. Semantic processing includes choosing the correct word for a specific concept, as well as recognizing the features and syntax of words in a sentence [1,2]. Speech processing is carried out in steps: (1) detection, which consists of recognizing separate syllables of a two-syllable word, which is the same mechanism of hearing the sound and is performed by the speech reception threshold test.…”

“…Speech processing is carried out in steps: (1) detection, which consists of recognizing separate syllables of a two-syllable word, which is the same mechanism of hearing the sound and is performed by the speech reception threshold test. (2) Recognition or differentiating monosyllabic words from each other based on the discovery of their vowels, which is done by wordin-noise recognition or speech discrimination score tests and using the list of non-photonic-monosyllabic words (non-HMWs) that have different vowels. (3) Interpreting or learning the first words in the mother tongue and understanding their meaning.…”

“…(3) Interpreting or learning the first words in the mother tongue and understanding their meaning. (4) Perception or understanding of the meaning and grammatical position of the learned words is done by the WINP test, and the test materials include HMWs, that have a fixed vowel in each list (Additional file 1: Appendix 1) [1][2][3][4].…”

“…Perception and production of speech interact with each other and each is a substructure of the other [4]. In such a way that without understanding the meaning of a sentence, it is not possible to express that sentence, and without expressing a sentence, it is not possible to understand it [1,2]. This cooperation improves language processing in the central nervous system.…”

Background The word-in-noise discrimination test evaluates the phonological aspect of speech based on the detection of the vowels. While word-in-noise perception (WINP) test is one of the speech perception exams and evaluates the ability to understand the meaning of words by discovering the consonants. Until now, all word-in-noise tests have assessed speech discrimination performance, and for the first time, the normal values of the WINP test for adults have been determined. Since the normal values of WINP scores in children have not been reported, our research aimed to determine the normal values of the WINP test in children aged 5 to 13 years. In this cross-sectional study, 120 Persian speaking Iranain children with normal hearing thresholds were evaluated from the beginning to the end of spring 2023. We divided them into 4 age groups (A = 5–7 < years, B = 7–9 < years, C = 9–11 < years, D = 11–13 < years). The evaluations included general audiology tests and WINP tests using homtonic-monosyllabic words (HMWs) at a signal-to-noise ratio of 5 dB. Results Significant difference was observed between the mean scores of the WINP test in age group A (54%) compared to age group B (66%), (Pv = 0.04). Also, the differences between the mean scores of age group A compared to age groups C (70%) and D (69%) were significant (Pv = 0.01, Pv = 0.03). Conclusions This article presented the norm values of WINP test scores for Persian speaking Iranian children aged 5 to 13 years. The norm values of WINP test scores in the age group of 5–7 years were lower than in the age groups of 7–13 years. The biggest change in the performance of speech perception in noise was observed in the age range of 7–9 years.
