Synchronous speech and speech rate
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2008Synchronously read speech has shown to reduce a high degree of speaker variability of reading exhibited by speakers in laboratory recording; e.g., pause placement and duration, and speech rate. However, quantitative analysis of speech rate has rarely been found in studies on synchronous speech.

Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
PurposeThe aim of this study was to quantify changes in speech intelligibility in two cohorts of people with Parkinson's disease (PD; those with and without deep brain stimulation [DBS]) across a broad range of self-selected speech rate alterations in (a) read sentences and (b) extemporaneous speech (monologues).MethodFour speaker groups participated ...

Effect of speech rate on speech-on-speech masking
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2008Target speech can be better recognized under speech-on-speech masking conditions if certain differences between target and masker (e.g. in loudness, pitch, location) can be used as cues for streaming. This study examined whether the speech rate can be used by listeners as a cue for unmasking target speech. The rate difference between target and masking

On the information rate of speech communication
2017 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing (ICASSP), 2017The key to the success of speech-based technology is an understanding of human speech communication. While significant advances have been made, a unified theory of speech communication that is both comprehensive and quantitative is yet to emerge. In this paper we approach speech communication from an information theoretical perspective. Without relying

Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1990
Self-reports of elliptical inner speech were measured to assess the speed of verbal problem solving. Rates of inner speech were correlated with physiological measurements of subvocal activity during verbal problem solving to evaluate the association between self-reports of verbal cognition and covert oral behavior.

Variable Rate Coding of Speech
Bell System Technical Journal, 1979In this paper, we examine a number of concepts and issues concerning variable-rate coding of speech. We formulate the problem as a multistate coder (i.e., a coder that can operate at several bit rates) coupled with a time buffer. We first analyze the theoretical aspects of the problem by examining it in the context of a block processing formulation. We

Anxiety, Speech Disturbances and Speech Rate
British Journal of Social and Clinical Psychology, 1969A distinction is drawn between two types of anxiety that might affect speech. Previous work on speech disturbance and speech rate is reviewed in the light of this distinction. An experiment is carried out in which both types of anxiety are varied. A significant effect of one type of anxiety on certain types of speech disturbance is found. A significant

Abstract Background: The term ‘speech usage’ refers to what people want or need to do with their speech to fulfil the communication demands in their life roles. Speech–language pathologists (SLPs) need to know about clients’ speech usage to plan appropriate interventions to meet their life participation goals.

Mechanisms in the Control of Speech Rate
Phonetica, 1981Abstract Mechanisms of speech rate control are discussed from the point of view that unidimensional models are inadequate to explain the extensive physiological and acoustical effects observed during changes in speech rate. Evidence is presented to demonstrate that changes in speech rate can result in changes in segmental duration ...

Influence of Mothers’ Slower Speech on Their Children’s Speech Rate
Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2001This study investigated the effects on children’s speech rate when their mothers talked more slowly. Six mothers and their normally speaking 3-year-olds (3 girls and 3 boys) were studied using single-subject A-B-A-B designs. Conversational speech rates of mothers were reduced by approximately half in the experimental (B) conditions.
