Xiaoluan Liu; Yuanyuan Liu – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2024
The present study examined the cross-modal cueing effect of musical rhythmic beats on non-native speech rhythm production. Two groups of Chinese learners of French were cued respectively with rhythmic beats that either matched (matching group) or mismatched (mismatching group) the rhythm patterns of the target French sentences. The participants…

Keshavarzi, Mahmoud; Di Liberto, Giovanni M.; Gabrielczyk, Fiona; Wilson, Angela; Macfarlane, Annabel; Goswami, Usha – Developmental Science, 2024
The prevalent "core phonological deficit" model of dyslexia proposes that the reading and spelling difficulties characterizing affected children stem from prior developmental difficulties in processing speech sound structure, for example, perceiving and identifying syllable stress patterns, syllables, rhymes and phonemes. Yet spoken word…

Tristan J. Mahr; Paul J. Rathouz; Katherine C. Hustad – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2025
Purpose: Earlier work has established developmental benchmarks for intelligibility and articulation rate, but the intersection of these two variables, especially within individual children, has received limited attention. This study examines the interaction between intelligibility and speaking rate in typically developing children between the ages…

Janina Bocher – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Speech exhibits quasi-rhythmic regularities at multiple timescales, which seem to be crucial to comprehension. Both children's ability to extract rhythm from complex stimuli and to produce rhythmic patterns are known to undergo changes from infancy to adulthood. However, it remains unclear what rhythm skills specifically related to speech look…

Lisa D. Bunker; Dallin J. Bailey; Elaine Poss; Shannon Mauszycki; Julie L. Wambaugh – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2024
Purpose: Neurogenic speech and language disorders--such as acquired apraxia of speech (AOS) and aphasia with phonemic paraphasia (APP)--are often misdiagnosed due to similarities in clinical presentation. Word syllable duration (WSD)--a measure of average syllable length in multisyllabic words--serves as a proxy for speech rate, which is an…

Melissa Freeman – International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education (QSE), 2024
This paper considers reading a hermeneutical co-respondence with understanding's becoming. It describes how understanding's plurality is caught up in the dialogical interplay of reading, rhetoric, and rhythm characteristic of hermeneutic engagement. Reading positions a reader in relationship with a text seeking participation in the matter under…

Leala Holcomb; Michael Higgins – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2024
Early childhood programs promote language play opportunities due to the well-documented positive influences on cognition, language, and literacy development. This qualitative investigation explores language play through the form of signed rhyme and rhythm among young deaf children. Teachers specializing in deaf education within an early childhood…

Lyla Parvez; Mahmoud Keshavarzi; Susan Richards; Giovanni M. Di Liberto; Usha Goswami – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2024
Purpose: Developmental language disorder (DLD) is a multifaceted disorder. Recently, interest has grown in prosodic aspects of DLD, but most investigations of possible prosodic causes focus on speech perception tasks. Here, we focus on speech production from a speech amplitude envelope (AE) perspective. Perceptual studies have indicated a role for…

Simone Gastaldon; Pierpaolo Busan; Nicola Molinaro; Mikel Lizarazu – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2024
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate cortical tracking of speech (CTS) in adults who stutter (AWS) compared to typically fluent adults (TFAs) to test the involvement of the speech-motor network in tracking rhythmic speech information. Method: Participants' electroencephalogram was recorded while they simply listened to sentences…

Ying Qian Ong; Jaehoon Lee; Shin Ying Chu; Siaw Chui Chai; Kok Beng Gan; Norlinah Mohamed Ibrahim; Steven M. Barlow – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2024
Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) has an impact on speech production, manifesting in various ways including alterations in voice quality, challenges in articulating sounds and a decrease in speech rate. Numerous investigations have been conducted to ascertain the oral-diadochokinesis (O-DDK) rate in individuals with PD. However, the existing…

Jiayi Wang; Nicola Halenko – Language Learning, 2024
This longitudinal study examines the effects of a pre-study abroad (SA) pedagogic intervention and subsequent SA experience on second language (L2) Mandarin fluency. It explores two temporal aspects of oral fluency--planning time and speech rate--along with one performance measure, duration of response. Additionally, L2 contact data were included…

Fatima Saif Aldahmani; Anas Al Huneety; Mariam Alzaidi; Saeed Alketbi; Abdulmaeen Almansoori – Eurasian Journal of Applied Linguistics, 2025
Friday sermons portray patterns of lexical cohesion which can demonstrate how effective communication is achieved. This study proposes a model of lexical cohesion that fits the spoken discourse of Friday sermons in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). To that end, a corpus of 25 sermons was analyzed to identify patterns of cohesion and show the impact…

Dan Valenti – Peter Lang Publishing Group, 2024
Poetry has been around for nearly five millennia, yet never has it been more puzzling. Technology, social media, and the blinding pace of contemporary life leave many students and readers in the dark. Just in time, this book comes to the rescue not just with a response to the problem of understanding and enjoying poetry, but it offers a solution.…

Hyoju Kim; Annie Tremblay; Taehong Cho – Cognitive Science, 2024
This study investigates whether listeners' cue weighting predicts their real-time use of asynchronous acoustic information in spoken word recognition at both group and individual levels. By focusing on the time course of cue integration, we seek to distinguish between two theoretical views: the "associated" view (cue weighting is linked…

The aim of this study is to reveal how the use of rhyming linguistic structures in illustrated children's books addressed to the preschool period is displayed. The study is a qualitative study aiming to reveal the utilisation of rhyming structures in works published within the scope of Turkish children's literature and the appearance of these…
