Abstract:

Learning a spoken language is, in part, an input-driven process. However, the relevant units of speech like words or morphemes are not clearly marked in the speech input. This thesis explores some possible strategies to segment fluent speech. Two main strategies for segmenting fluent speech are considered. The first involves computing the distributional properties of the input stream. Previous research has established that adults and infants can use the transition probabilities (TPs) between syllables to segment speech. Specifically, researchers have found a preference for syllabic sequences w

Abstract:

Using Delayed Auditory Feedback can be used to induce Stutterlike dysfluencies, causing an individual to lose speech fluency. Little is known about the effect of speech dysfluency on working memory and phonological coding. The present study focuses on finding a method that can be used to measure these effects in otherwise fluent adults. 7 adults who normally speak fluently are subjected to Delayed Auditory Feedback during a Reading Span Task. The method proved too weak to induce speech dysfluency in a majority of participants, indicating that the phenomenon is more complex than anticipated.

Abstract:

This study investigates pause duration between and within utterances in the speech of 20 people with different degrees and types of aphasia: 15 with fluent aphasia and five with nonfluent aphasia. It also examines within utterance pause durations as a function of utterance position. Using aphasia speech samples collected in a previous study by Harmon (2018), Praat acoustic analysis software was used to segment words and periods of pause and measure pause duration within and between utterances. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, including pause duration mean, standard deviatio

Abstract:

This study examines the relationship between types of gestures and instances of self-initiated self-repair (SISR) used by persons with non-fluent aphasia (NFA), which is a type of aphasia characterized by stilted speech or signing (Papathanasiou et al., 2013), in interactions with clinicians. Conversation repairs in this study are assessed using the framework of Conversation Analysis (CA), which is an approach for describing, analyzing, and understanding social interaction (Sidnell, 2010). Previous linguistic studies have demonstrated a distinct preference for the use of gesture during a repai

Purpose: The goal of this study was to develop a novel tool for connected speech analysis in aphasia, so that spoken output can be characterized in a data-driven and explanatory manner. Method: We designed a multidimensional rating scheme called the Auditory-Perceptual Rating of Connected Speech in Aphasia (APROCSA), in which 27 common features were each rated on a 5-point scale. Three researchers and twelve student clinicians rated 24 connected speech samples from the AphasiaBank database.

The ultimate goal in any programme of aphasia rehabilitation is a social one – that behaviours targeted in therapy will generalise to everyday use for people with aphasia (PWA).

Thus, the effects of impairment-focused therapy on conversation have been investigated by only a handful of studies. This thesis aimed to contribute to the growing interest in mea

碩士<br>國立高雄師範大學<br>聽力學與語言治療研究所<br>101<br>Background Response Elaboration Training (RET) has been proven to be an effective treatment for persons with nonfluent aphasia. However, there is a paucity of research on its application to speakers of Chinese whose grammar is very different from English. In the past, the efficacy of RET was mostly measured with speech fluency indexes, little has been mentioned about its effects on semantic-lexical aspects. Therefore, we used lexical diversity, a semantic measure, to document the treatment efficacy of the training program. In brief, the purpose of th

碩士<br>高雄師範大學<br>聽力學與語言治療研究所<br>97<br>In order to understand the Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) for individuals with non-fluent aphasia in communication training, the researcher had two purposes: (1) to investigate the communication condition and difficulties for individuals with non-fluent aphasia, (2) to investigate the communication training process of AAC for individuals with non-fluent aphasia. The study used case study research method. The subjects of this study were two individuals with aphasia; one was female and she was 53 years old; and the other was male, he was

Abstract:

Dupla diplomação com a Universidade Tecnológica e Federal do Paraná<br>The present work presents a study across the effects of fire in nonloadbering Light- Steel Frame (LSF) walls. Eight experimental tests and twenty-two parametric analyses were performed to evaluate the influence the thickness of the cavity, the thickness of the structural steel, the effect of the protection layer and the influence of insulation material in the cavity. The thickness of the protection layer presents the bigger influence in fire resistance, followed by the effect of the insulation material in the cavity. F

Abstract:

The Long Endurance Electric Unmanned Air Vehicle (LEEUAV) is a project of a green, low-cost, small footprint electric solar UAV which was designed for civilian surveillance applications, such as coast, forest, or border patrol. Therefore, long endurance is desired, which is accomplished by a lightweight airframe design and an electric propulsion system assisted with solar cell arrays. The LEEUAV has an approximated mass of 5 kg, 4.5 m of wingspan and an 8-hour flight endurance. To ease the construction, its wing, in addition to its aerodynamic function, must accommodate the solar cells on its
