looking for references on effects of gender on speech intelligibility
Hi listers,
Can someone point me to references that investigates speech
intelligibility as a function of both talker and listener gender,
preferably for natural speech. To date the only reference that I came
upon that comes close to this is by Ellis et al. (1996), "Effects of
gender on listeners' judgments of speech intelligibility",
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 83, 771-775. In this study male and
female participants provided magnitude-estimation scaling responses
and over-all impressions of the intelligibility of a male and female
speaker's comparable versions of audiotaped speech samples. I would
ideally like to find a study that assessed speech intelligibility
using DRT or MRT. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
cheers,
Rob
