DOI: 10.1055/s-0040-1719134
Abstract: BACKGROUND Clear speech is an effective communication strategy to improve speech intelligibility. While clear speech in several languages has been shown to significantly benefit intelligibility among listeners with differential hearing sensitivities and across environments of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1121/1.5014678
Abstract: Slow, loud, and clear speech can elicit increased acoustic vowel contrast in talkers with dysarthria. However, articulator-specific changes in response to these speech modifications and their relative contribution to vowel acoustic changes remain poorly understood… read more here.

DOI: 10.1121/1.5014860
Abstract: This study assessed vowel intelligibility when electrolaryngeal (EL) speakers were instructed to use clear speech (CS). Eighteen consonant-vowel-consonant words containing /i/, /ɪ/, /ɛ/, and /ae/ were spoken by 10 laryngectomees in habitual speech (HS) and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1121/1.5067621
Abstract: In adverse communicative contexts, speakers will modify their speech style to enhance intelligibility, which can involve a range of acoustic and articulatory adjustments. Prior work has focused on the influence of speaking style on spectral… read more here.

DOI: 10.1121/1.5067662
Abstract: Recognition memory (i.e., identifying items as old or new) is higher for sentences spoken clearly than for sentences spoken casually. The clear speech benefit on recognition memory was observed for both native and non-native English… read more here.
