==Modified Rhyme Test==
The Modified Rhyme Test (MRT) is defined in the American National Standard ANSI S3.2 Methods for Measuring the Intelligibility of Speech Over Communication Systems.<ref>{{Cite journal | title = ANSI/ASA S3.2-2009 (R2014) Method For Measuring The Intelligibility Of Speech Over Communication Systems. | publisher = American National Standards Institute, Acoustical Society of America | year = 2014 | url=https://webstore.ansi.org/Standards/ASA/ANSIASAS32009R2014 }}</ref>   The method consists of 50 sets of six monosyllabic words that differ in initial or final consonant (e.g. not, tot, got, pot, hot, lot or ray, raze, rate, rave, rake, race).  The listener is typically presented with one of the words in the sextet preceded by a phrase, "You will mark the word ___".  The six words that rhyme are presented to the listener to select what they believe to be the correct answer. The MRT has been extensively used by the US Air Force to test the performance of different communication systems, which often include a noise interference component.  If a condition achieves a score of 80% correct responses or better, then that is often an acceptable performance level.{{cn|date=July 2022}}
