Direct linkHosseinabad, Hedieh Hashemi; Bai, Xiuqin – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2023
Background: Intelligibility measurement is influenced by the characteristics of a speaker, listener and contextual factors. This study addresses the clinical problem of measuring speech intelligibility in children with velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) in real-world conditions. Aims: The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of…

Knowles, Thea; Adams, Scott G.; Jog, Mandar – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: The aim of this study was to quantify changes in speech intelligibility in two cohorts of people with Parkinson's disease (PD; those with and without deep brain stimulation [DBS]) across a broad range of self-selected speech rate alterations in: (1) read sentences; and (2) extemporaneous speech (monologues). Method: Four speaker groups…

Icht, Michal; Bergerzon-Bitton, Orly; Ben-David, Boaz M. – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2022
'Dysarthria' is a group of motor speech disorders resulting from a disturbance in neuromuscular control. Most individuals with dysarthria cope with communicative restrictions due to speech impairments and reduced intelligibility. Thus, language-sensitive measurements of intelligibility are important in dysarthria neurological assessment. The…

Griffiths, Sarah; Barnes, Rebecca; Britten, Nicky; Wilkinson, Ray – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2015
Background: Features of dysarthria associated with Parkinson's disease (PD), such as low volume, variable rate of speech and increased pauses, impact speaker intelligibility. Those affected report restricted interactional participation, although this area is under explored. Aims: To examine naturally occurring instances of problems with…

Keintz, Connie K.; Bunton, Kate; Hoit, Jeannette D. – American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology, 2007
Purpose: To examine the influence of visual information on speech intelligibility for a group of speakers with dysarthria associated with Parkinson's disease. Method: Eight speakers with Parkinson's disease and dysarthria were recorded while they read sentences. Speakers performed a concurrent manual task to facilitate typical speech production.…

Contribution of Two Sources of Listener Knowledge to Intelligibility of Speakers with Cerebral Palsy
Hustad, Katherine C. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2007
Purpose: This study examined the independent and combined effects of two sources of linguistic knowledge (alphabet cues and semantic predictability) on the intelligibility of speakers with dysarthria. The study also examined the extent to which each source of knowledge accounted for variability in intelligibility gains. Method: Eight speakers with…
