Perceptual normalization for speaking rate occurs below the level of the syllable

, 2023
Because speaking rates are highly variable, listeners must use cues like phoneme or sentence duration to scale or normalize speech across different contexts. Scaling speech perception in this way allows listeners to distinguish between temporal contrasts,

Normalizers of system normalizers [PDF]

Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, 1964
1. The normalizers of the system normalizers are subgroups of some importance in the theory of solvable groups initiated by P. Hall [1-5]. For example, P. Hall observed [4] that a system normalizer was contained in the hypercenter of its norm lizer. R.

Postgraduate Medical Journal, 2018
AbstractThe NHS ‘Choose Wisely’ campaign places greater emphasis on the clinician-patient dialogue. Patients are often in receipt of their laboratory data and want to know whether they are normal. But what is meant by normal? Comparator data, to a measured value, are colloquially known as the ‘normal range’.

How Normal Is ‘Normal'? [PDF]

Archives of Neurology, 1998
While many "normal" subjects exhibit mild clinically detectable tremor, the extent to which this tremor is present has received little attention.To characterize the prevalence and clinical characteristics of mild, clinically detectable tremor in a multiethnic cohort of normal subjects.Normal control subjects (n=36) and their relatives (n=67) were ...

An interdisciplinary theory of implementation, embedding and integration: the development of normalization process theory [PDF]

, 2009
Background: Theories are important tools in the social and natural sciences. The methods by which they are derived are rarely described and discussed. Normalization Process Theory explains how new technologies, ways of acting, and ways of working become ...
