Please note that even though the SII is an ANSI standard, there was no validation study of the SII metric. Some assumptions underlying the SII--such as the idea that SII is dependent on speech materials (e.g. nonsense syllables versus sentences)--go against 80 years of articulation index literature, while offering no demonstrated advantage for predicting speech intelligibility.
