Georgiou, Georgios P. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
The present study aims to investigate the identification of native vowel categories by adult individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and estimate their reaction times in both normal and whisper registers; their responses were compared with those of typically developing individuals. The results demonstrated that there was no deficit for…

Zahra Jafari; Hardeep Ryait; Mohammad Habibnezhad; Claire Niehaus; Erin Cantwell; Jordan Dudley; Bryan Kolb; Majid Mohajerani – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2025
Purpose: Previous studies have debated differences in spoken language processing between nonnative and native English speakers, often yielding varying and sometimes contradictory results. To address these discrepancies, we employed a comprehensive battery of tasks to compare auditory, speech, and memory processing between nonnative and native…

Takehiro Iizuka; Robert DeKeyser – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2023
Since Gisela Granena's influential work, LLAMA D v2, a sound recognition subtest of LLAMA aptitude tests, has been used as a measure of implicit learning aptitude in second language acquisition research. The validity of this test, however, is little known and the results of studies with this instrument have been somewhat inconsistent. In this…

Talkington, William J.; Donai, Jeremy; Kadner, Alexandra S.; Layne, Molly L.; Forino, Andrew; Wen, Sijin; Gao, Si; Gray, Margeaux M.; Ashraf, Alexandria J.; Valencia, Gabriela N.; Smith, Brandon D.; Khoo, Stephanie K.; Gray, Stephen J.; Lass, Norman; Brefczynski-Lewis, Julie A.; Engdahl, Susannah; Graham, David; Frum, Chris A.; Lewis, James W. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2020
Purpose: From an anthropological perspective of hominin communication, the human auditory system likely evolved to enable special sensitivity to sounds produced by the vocal tracts of human conspecifics whether attended or passively heard. While numerous electrophysiological studies have used stereotypical human-produced verbal (speech voice and…

Loh, Karin; Fintor, Edina; Nolden, Sophie; Fels, Janina – Developmental Psychology, 2022
Children's development and education take place in educational buildings with highly complex acoustic scenes, including spatially distributed target speakers, many surrounding distracting sounds, and general background noises. Auditory selective attention, therefore, is a valuable tool to orient oneself, to focus on specific sound sources, and to…

Kim, Kwang S.; Wang, Hantao; Max, Ludo – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2020
Purpose: Various aspects of speech production related to auditory-motor integration and learning have been examined through auditory feedback perturbation paradigms in which participants' acoustic speech output is experimentally altered and played back via earphones/headphones "in real time." Scientific rigor requires high precision in…

Schiller, Isabel S.; Remacle, Angélique; Durieux, Nancy; Morsomme, Dominique – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: Background noise and voice problems among teachers can degrade listening conditions in classrooms. The aim of this literature review is to understand how these acoustic degradations affect spoken language processing in 6- to 18-year-old children. Method: In a narrative report and meta-analysis, we systematically review studies that…

Viebahn, Malte C. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2021
Studies have demonstrated that listeners can retain detailed voice-specific acoustic information about spoken words in memory. A central question is when such information influences lexical processing. According to episodic models of the mental lexicon, voice-specific details influence word recognition immediately during online speech perception.…

Alexander, Joshua M. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2019
Purpose: Frequency lowering in hearing aids can cause listeners to perceive [s] as [?]. The S-SH Confusion Test, which consists of 66 minimal word pairs spoken by 6 female talkers, was designed to help clinicians and researchers document these negative side effects. This study's purpose was to use this new test to evaluate the hypothesis that…

These days, smartphones are popular commodities among students in high school and college. Students carry their devices all the time, so why not use such a popular electronic device to measure physical quantities such as "g" in physics labs? In this work, we report a "multiple tasking" method, a measurement technique that we…

Winn, Matthew B.; Teece, Katherine H. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: Speech recognition percent correct scores fail to capture the effort of mentally repairing the perception of speech that was initially misheard. This study measured the effort of listening to stimuli specifically designed to elicit mental repair in adults who use cochlear implants (CIs). Method: CI listeners heard and repeated sentences…

Schiller, Isabel S.; Morsomme, Dominique; Kob, Malte; Remacle, Angélique – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2020
Purpose: Our aim was to investigate isolated and combined effects of speech-shaped noise (SSN) and a speaker's impaired voice quality on spoken language processing in first-grade children. Method: In individual examinations, 53 typically developing children aged 5-6 years performed a speech perception task (phoneme discrimination) and a listening…

Oosthuizen, Ilze; Picou, Erin M.; Pottas, Lidia; Myburgh, Hermanus Carel; Swanepoel, De Wet – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2020
Purpose: It is not clear if behavioral indices of listening effort are sensitive to changes in signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for young children (7-12 years old) from multilingual backgrounds. The purpose of this study was to explore the effects of SNR on listening effort in multilingual school-aged children (native English, nonnative English) as…

Visentin, Chiara; Prodi, Nicola – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2018
Purpose: The primary aim of this study was to develop and examine the potentials of a new speech-in-noise test in discriminating the favorable listening conditions targeted in the acoustical design of communication spaces. The test is based on the recognition and recall of disyllabic word sequences. A secondary aim was to compare the test with…
