The perception and production of emotional and linguistic (focus) prosody were compared in children with cochlear implants (CI) and normally hearing (NH) peers. Thirteen CI and thirteen hearing-age-matched school-aged NH children were tested, as baseline, on non-verbal emotion understanding, non-word repetition, and stimulus identification and…

van de Velde, Daan J.; Frijns, Johan H. M.; Beers, Mieke; van Heuven, Vincent J.; Levelt, Claartje C.; Briaire, Jeroen; Schiller, Niels O. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2018
Purpose: Relative to normally hearing (NH) peers, the speech of children with cochlear implants (CIs) has been found to have deviations such as a high fundamental frequency, elevated jitter and shimmer, and inadequate intonation. However, two important dimensions of prosody (temporal and spectral) have not been systematically investigated. Given…

Lam, Jennifer; Tjaden, Kris – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2016
Purpose: The authors investigated how different variants of clear speech affect segmental and suprasegmental acoustic measures of speech in speakers with Parkinson's disease and a healthy control group. Method: A total of 14 participants with Parkinson's disease and 14 control participants served as speakers. Each speaker produced 18 different…

Fengler, Ineke; Delfau, Pia-Céline; Röder, Brigitte – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2018
It is yet unclear whether congenitally deaf cochlear implant (CD CI) users' visual and multisensory emotion perception is influenced by their history in sign language acquisition. We hypothesized that early-signing CD CI users, relative to late-signing CD CI users and hearing, non-signing controls, show better facial expression recognition and…

Kissling, Elizabeth M. – Modern Language Journal, 2018
Listening is widely regarded as an important skill that is difficult and necessary to teach in L2 classrooms. Listening requires both top-down and bottom-up processing, yet pedagogical techniques for the latter are often lacking. This study explores the efficacy of pronunciation instruction (PI) for improving learners' bottom-up processing. The…

Sammler, Daniela; Kotz, Sonja A.; Eckstein, Korinna; Ott, Derek V. M.; Friederici, Angela D. – Brain, 2010
Contemporary neural models of auditory language comprehension proposed that the two hemispheres are differently specialized in the processing of segmental and suprasegmental features of language. While segmental processing of syntactic and lexical semantic information is predominantly assigned to the left hemisphere, the right hemisphere is…

Martinez-Castilla, Pastora; Sotillo, Maria; Campos, Ruth – Language and Cognitive Processes, 2011
In spite of the relevant role of prosody in communication, and in contrast with other linguistic components, there is paucity of research in this field for Williams syndrome (WS). Therefore, this study performed a systematic assessment of prosodic abilities in WS. The Spanish version of the Profiling Elements of Prosody in Speech-Communication…
