Speech intelligibility was examined in 15 oral cancer patients with forearm flap reconstruction. Speech intelligibility was assessed using a one hundred syllable Japanese speech intelligibility test and a 2-3 minute conversational speech. Each task was judged by three listener groups, i. e., dental school students (naive listeners), oral surgeons (untrained listeners) and speech pathologists (trained listeners) . The patient's own assessment of his or her level of communication was also learned using a questionnaire. The results were as follows.<BR>1. Among the listeners group, syllable intelligibility was highest among speech pathologists. There were significant differences between results for each listener group.<BR>2. Oral surgeons showed best results in conversation intelligibility.<BR>3. The significant correlation between syllable intelligibility and conversation intelligibility was highest among speech pathologists.<BR>4. The rate of agreement between conversation intelligibility and the patient's own assessment of his or her level of communication was highest among speech pathologists and significantly low among naive listeners. The results obtained from subjective evaluation did not quite coincide with results obtained from objective evaluations.
