Introduction Well-designed audiometric speech tests for Indonesian children are not currently available. This paper describes the development of Speech Recognition Threshold Test (INDO-SPRITT). Material and methods A list words with response foils pictures was developed. Presentation level varied 50% recognition threshold calculated as average midpoints each reversal. normative reference established using a sample 118 normal hearing participants,16 severe to profound loss, 25 adults. The effects age on reception thresholds test reliability were also assessed. Results INDO-SPRITT material found be appropriate older than 4 years 6 months. (SRT) improved from 18 dB HL 5 year old 13 aged 10 years, providing against which SRT unknown status can compared. Five reversals enough estimate SRT. Conclusions Suitable words, phonemic balance, have been created children. different lengths similar, being mean decreased age, but did vary number reversals.
