No evidence for convergence to sub-phonemic F2 shifts in shadowing
Over the course of a conversation, interlocutors sound more and more like each other in a process called convergence. However, the …

Acoustic correlates of Dutch lexical stress re-examined: Spectral tilt is not always more reliable than intensity
The present study examined two acoustic cues in the production of lexical stress in Dutch: spectral tilt and overall intensity. …

Visible lexical stress cues on the face do not influence audiovisual speech perception
Producing lexical stress leads to visible changes on the face, such as longer duration and greater size of the opening of the mouth. …

An entrained rhythm’s frequency, not phase, influences temporal sampling of speech
Brain oscillations have been shown to track the slow amplitude fluctuations in speech during comprehension. Moreover, there is evidence …

The role of temporal amplitude modulations in the political arena: Hillary Clinton vs. Donald Trump
Speech is an acoustic signal with inherent amplitude modulations in the 1-9 Hz range. Recent models of speech perception propose that …

Whether long-term tracking of speech rate affects perception depends on who is talking
Speech rate is known to modulate perception of temporally ambiguous speech sounds. For instance, a vowel may be perceived as short when …

Listening under cognitive load makes speech sound fast
Listeners interpret local temporal cues (e.g., vowel durations) relative to the surrounding speech rate. For instance, an ambiguous …

Our own speech rate influences speech perception
During conversation, spoken utterances occur in rich acoustic contexts, including speech produced by our interlocutor(s) and speech we …

Both native and non-native disfluencies trigger listeners’ attention
Disfluencies, such as uh and uhm, are known to help the listener in speech comprehension. For instance, disfluencies may elicit …
