Increase in jammed word intelligibility due to training of listeners.
Data are presented on the effect of training on naive subjects' ability to listen to voice communications under conditions of simulated cockpit noise and active jamming. The results indicate that training improved the performance of listeners under all conditions tested. Suggestions are made for further research to quantify increases in performance of communicators in jammed environments due to training.
