Familiarization of Dysarthric Speech Generalization between Speakers of Different Sex
|
|
|
|
Abstract:
Dysarthria is a motor speech disorder that affects various aspects of speech production, such as breath support, speech rate, articulation, and prosody. Traditional speech therapy involved behavioral changes to how a person with dysarthria speaks. Emerging evidence shows familiarization may be a viable alternative option for treatment. Familiarization targets the listener's perceived intelligibility of speech produced by a speaker with dysarthria through training with speakers with dysarthria. Recent evidence showed familiarization effects generalize between test and training speakers with dysarthria who were the same sex, especially if the speech of the two speakers was perceptually similar. The current study investigates whether generalization occurs between speakers of different sex and the effect perceptual similarity has on this generalization. Listeners were recruited via Amazon's Mechanical Turk and were presented with speech samples from a speaker with dysarthria. Listeners were assigned to one of two training conditions and completed a pre-test and post-test transcription task to measure level of intelligibility. Data collected was compared to and analyzed with historical data from Borrie et al. (2017a). Results showed a significant effect for level of similarity, indicating the listeners trained with a perceptually similar speaker to the test speaker showed greater improvements in intelligibility compared to listeners trained with a dissimilar speaker, regardless of the speaker's sex. The listeners in the dissimilar training speaker conditions had variable intelligibility improvement scores following training. Results indicate familiarization effects generalize between speakers of different sex and that improvement is enhanced when trained with a perceptually similar speaker. ; A Thesis submitted to the Department of Communication Science and Disorders in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science. ; Summer Semester 2019. ; July 11, 2019. ; Adults, Dysarthria, Familiarization, Perceptual Learning ; Includes bibliographical references. ; Kaitlin L.
