Peer reviewedMetz, Dale Evan; And Others – Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, 1990
The study examined the relationship between 28 segmental and suprasegmental acoustic parameters of speech production and measures of speech intelligibility for 40 severely to profoundly hearing-impaired persons (mean age 21 years). Findings support the tractability of employing selected acoustic variables for the estimation of speech…

Peer reviewedLoeb, Diane Frome; Allen, George D. – Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, 1993
Acoustic analyses, along with perceptual ratings, measured the extent to which preschoolers imitated three modeled intonation contours (declarative, interrogative, and monotone). Results indicated that five-year-old children imitated modeled contours more frequently than did three-year-old children, with between-group differences largely because…
