Logopenic and nonfluent variants of primary progressive aphasia are differentiated by acoustic measures of speech production [PDF]
Differentiation of logopenic (lvPPA) and nonfluent/agrammatic (nfvPPA) variants of Primary Progressive Aphasia is important yet remains challenging since it hinges on expert based evaluation of speech and language production.

Perceptual adjustment to time-compressed Speech: a cross-linguistic study [PDF]
revious research has shown that, when hearers listen to artificially speeded speech, their performance improves over the course of 10-15 sentences, as if their perceptual system was "adapting" to these fast rates of speech.

Stress-timing and syllable-timing reanalyzed
Abstract: Comparisons of data from continuous texts in English, Thai, Spanish, Italian and Greek, show that interstress intervals in English, a stress-timed language, are no more isochronous than interstress intervals in Spanish, a syllable-timed language, or any of the other languages investigated.

Neurobehavioral Assessment of Sensorimotor Function in Autism Using Smartphone Technology
ABSTRACT Differences in sensorimotor processing represent an important, yet underrecognized, feature of autism; typically assessed through subjective observations, which, although important, are susceptible to biases. To complement these observations, a more objective approach to assess sensorimotor function may be possible through reflex‐based ...
