In a speech discrimination ability determination system, an MMN determination section acquires, with respect to each of the first and second speech sounds, difference information between the event-related potential acquired during its output with the first occurrence frequency and the event-related potential acquired during its output with the second occurrence frequency, and determines whether a negative component exists in the difference information in predetermined time ranges after the first and second speech sounds are output. When the determination result indicates that the negative component exists, a discrimination ability determination section determines that the user discriminates the first and second speech sounds.
