Use of the Tracheostoma Valve in the Marking of Contrastive Stress and Sentence Intonation.

Trudeau, Michael D.; And Others

Journal of Communication Disorders, v21 n1 p21-31 Feb 1988

Two tracheoesophageal speakers experienced in use of the tracheostoma valve (TSV) produced speech samples varying with location of contrastive stress, sentence intonation, and use of TSV. Listeners (n=34) found that TSV-use reduced speaker ability to signal suprasegmentals; however, locus of the suprasegmentals, particularly stress placement, exerted a stronger effect. (Author/JDD)
