[AUDITORY] PhD student position: Why does voice matter for speech communication?



PhD student position: Why does voice matter for speech communication? 

Available at the dB SPL lab at the University Medical Center Groningen, The Netherlands.

This three year project, within the group of Prof. Deniz Başkent, will investigate the perception of talker voice information and linguistic information for speech comprehension. The goals of the project are to 1) better understand the interaction of talker voice and linguistic information in speech comprehension, 2) identify the role of voice perception in speech comprehension, and 3) explore the effects of long-term experience and learning in voice perception in diverse listener populations. These goals will be obtained using an interdisciplinary approach, implementing psychoacoustic behavioral, and eye-tracking/EEG techniques.
