Riassunto

The Handbook of Speech Production provides a state-of-the-art survey of the interdisciplinary field of speech production. Twenty-four chapters by leading international researchers, from a broad range of academic backgrounds including otolaryngology, information sciences, and linguistics, cover key areas of research in this burgeoning field of study. The contributions bring together behavioral, clinical, computational, developmental, and neuropsychological perspectives on speech production with an emphasis on kinematics, control, and planning in production. The work is divided into five sections: The Speech Mechanism, Coordination and Multimodal Speech, Speech Motor Control, Sequencing and Planning, and Language Factors. This structure showcases the wide spectrum of research in speech production and highlights advances in both research methodology and theoretical modeling. The Handbook is an ideal resource for both advanced students and researchers interested in exploring cutting-edge research which complements existing work in speech perception and enhances our understanding of how speech works.

Melissa A. Redford is a speech scientist with a broad cognitive science background. She received her PhD in Psychology at the University of Texas, completed an NRSA Individual Postdoctoral Fellowship in Computer Science also at the University of Texas, and then joined the Linguistics faculty at the University of Oregon in 2002. Her research focuses on the development and structure of the speech plan and the parameters that control rate, emphasis, and style changes in spoken language.

Product Description:

The Handbook of Speech Production is the first reference work to provide an overview of this burgeoning area of study. Twenty-four chapters written by an international team of authors examine issues in speech planning, motor control, the physical aspects of speech production, and external factors that impact speech production. * Contributions bring together behavioral, clinical, computational, developmental, and neuropsychological perspectives on speech production to create a rich and truly interdisciplinary resource * Offers a novel and timely contribution to the literature and showcases a broad spectrum of research in speech production, methodological advances, and modeling * Coverage of planning, motor control, articulatory coordination, the speech mechanism, and the effect of language on production processes
