Precourse to postcourse measures were compared for an auditory training group and a control group on three auditory discrimination measures: (a) the training sentences, (b) related but nontrained sentences (decoy sentences), and (c) a modified rhyme test. The training group showed significant gains on both the trained sentences, as would be expected, and the decoy sentences. It was decided that decoy sentences are a good precourse to postcourse measure of auditory training gains.
