Perceptual Restoration in Speechreading by Adults with Profound Hearing Loss
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Jain, Saransh; Kumar, Rakesh Trinesh; Jain, Pratham – American Annals of the Deaf, 2022
Perceptual restoration occurs when the brain restores missing segments from speech under certain conditions. It is investigated in the auditory modality, but minimal evidence has been collected during speechreading tasks. The authors measured perceptual restoration in speechreading by individuals with hearing loss and compared it to perceptual…

Lei, Jianghua; Gong, Huina; Chen, Liang – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2019
Purpose: The study was designed primarily to determine if the use of hearing aids (HAs) in individuals with hearing impairment in China would affect their speechreading performance. Method: Sixty-seven young adults with hearing impairment with HAs and 78 young adults with hearing impairment without HAs completed newly developed Chinese…

An Eye-Tracking Study on Audiovisual Speech Perception Strategies Adopted by Normal-Hearing and Deaf Adults under Different Language Familiarities
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed

Wang, Jianrong; Zhu, Yumeng; Chen, Yu; Mamat, Abdilbar; Yu, Mei; Zhang, Ju; Dang, Jianwu – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2020
Purpose: The primary purpose of this study was to explore the audiovisual speech perception strategies.80.23.47 adopted by normal-hearing and deaf people in processing familiar and unfamiliar languages. Our primary hypothesis was that they would adopt different perception strategies due to different sensory experiences at an early age, limitations…

Cleland, Joanne; Mccron, Caitlin; Scobbie, James M. – Clinical Linguistics & Phonetics, 2013
Speakers possess a natural capacity for lip reading; analogous to this, there may be an intuitive ability to "tongue-read." Although the ability of untrained participants to perceive aspects of the speech signal has been explored for some visual representations of the vocal tract (e.g. talking heads), it is not yet known to what extent…

Seeing to Hear Better: Evidence for Early Audio-Visual Interactions in Speech Identification
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Schwartz, Jean-Luc; Berthommier, Frederic; Savariaux, Christophe – Cognition, 2004
Lip reading is the ability to partially understand speech by looking at the speaker's lips. It improves the intelligibility of speech in noise when audio-visual perception is compared with audio-only perception. A recent set of experiments showed that seeing the speaker's lips also enhances "sensitivity" to acoustic information,…

Ching, Teresa – 1990
A study assessed the practical use of the simplified speech pattern approach to teaching lipreading in a tone language by comparing performance using an acoustic hearing-aid and a Sivo-aid in a tone labelling task. After initial assessment, subjects were given training to enhance perception of lexically contrastive tones, then post-tested. The…
