Speech Perception

Annual Review of Psychology, 2004
This chapter focuses on one of the first steps in comprehending spoken language: How do listeners extract the most fundamental linguistic elements—consonants and vowels, or the distinctive features which compose them—from the acoustic signal? We begin by describing three major theoretical perspectives on the perception of speech.

NEUROBIOLOGY OF SPEECH PERCEPTION

Annual Review of Neuroscience, 1997
▪ Abstract  The mechanisms by which human speech is processed in the brain are reviewed from both behavioral and neurobiological perspectives. Special consideration is given to the separation of speech processing as a complex acoustic-processing task versus a linguistic task.

Speech Perception in Schizophrenia

British Journal of Psychiatry, 1974
Although there have been several reports of investigations of speech perception in schizophrenia (Laffal, 1961; Lawson, McGhie and Chapman, 1964) in all cases the assumption was made that the patients’ difficulties arose, not from an inability to perceive the individual words, but from a deficiency in perceiving the words in a meaningful relationship ...

On phase perception in speech

1999 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing. Proceedings. ICASSP99 (Cat. No.99CH36258), 1999
In this paper we define perceptual phase capacity as the size of a codebook of phase spectra necessary to represent all possible phase spectra in a perceptually accurate manner. We determine the perceptual phase capacity for voiced speech. To this purpose, we use an auditory model which indicates if phase spectrum changes are audible or not.

A Specialization for Speech Perception

Science, 1989
The processes that underlie perception of consonants and vowels are specifically phonetic, distinct from those that localize sources and assign auditory qualities to the sound from each source. This specialization, or module, increases the rate of information flow, establishes the parity between sender and receiver that every communication system must ...

Speech Perception

Language and Speech, 1976
The paper reviews selected studies in speech perception, most of them published in the past five years. Topics include the contributions of prosody to segmental perception, the problems of segmentation and invariance, categorical perception of speech and non-speech, the role of feature detectors, the scaling of speech sounds to an auditory-articulatory

Perception of Speech in Schizophrenia

British Journal of Psychiatry, 1964
The study reported in this paper derived from an experimental investigation of anomalies of attention and perception found in schizophrenic patients (Chapman and McGhie, 1961, 1962). The application of an experimental battery of tests to a group of schizophrenic patients had shown that the short-term memory of schizophrenics is particularly vulnerable ...

Perception of speech rate in speech rate perception

Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2016
This study investigates what influences a listener’s perception of speech rate. Three factors were investigated: pause type, actual speech rate, and utterance type (native, accented, and unfamiliar). Using manually accelerated vs. decelerated but structurally-identical sentences with three-type pauses (long, short, and filled) in accented, native, and ...
