Data, Output, and Code: A Clinical Advantage: Experience informs recognition and adaptation to a novel talker with dysarthria

Description

Perceptual training paradigms, which leverage the mechanism of perceptual learning, show that naïve listeners, those with no prior experience with dysarthria, benefit from explicit familiarization with a talker with dysarthria. The assumption, that familiarization affords listeners an opportunity to acquire distributional knowledge of the degraded speech signal. Here, we extend investigations to clinically experienced listeners, Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs), and advance models of listener recognition and adaptation to dysarthric speech.

Award Title

Perceptual training for improved intelligibility of dysarthric speech

Methodology

Forty-seven SLPs completed a standard three-phase perceptual training protocol (pretest, familiarization, posttest) with a novel talker with dysarthria. Intelligibility scores were compared with a historical data set from naïve listeners. Further, potential relationships between intelligibility scores and characteristics of clinical experience were examined.
