Toward Phonetic Intelligibility Testing in Dysarthria
TLDR
Based in part on previous studies of speech of the hearing impaired, a profile has been designed to direct research on the acoustic or physiologic correlates of dysarthric intelligibility impairment and a word intelligibility test is proposed for use with Dysarthric speakers.Abstract:
The measurement of intelligibility in dysarthric individuals is a major concern in clinical assessment and management and in research on dysarthria. The measurement objective is complicated by the ...read more

Speech recognition in adverse conditions: A review
TL;DR: A review of the effects of adverse conditions (ACs) on the perceptual, linguistic, cognitive, and neurophysiological mechanisms underlying speech recognition is presented in this paper, where the authors advocate an approach to speech recognition that includes rather than neutralises complex listening environments and individual differences.

An association between mothers' speech clarity and infants' speech discrimination skills
TL;DR: This article examined the correlation between maternal speech clarity and infant speech perception performance in two groups of Mandarin-speaking mother-infant pairs and found that mothers' vowel space area is significantly correlated with infants' speech discrimination performance.

Acoustic and intelligibility characteristics of sentence production in neurogenic speech disorders.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the relationship between scaled speech intelligibility and selected acoustic variables in persons with dysarthria and found that the relationship was not as strong as that of control speakers and speakers with amyotrophobia.

A prospective study of cognitive impairment in ALS.
TL;DR: Bulbar-onset ALS patients with cognitive impairments and neuronal loss in the anterior cingulate gyrus subsequently developed more profound neuropsychological dysfunction whereas both language and speech capabilities remained relatively preserved.
