When Can Listeners Detect Disfluency in Spontaneous Speech?

Lickley, R. J.; Bard, E. G.

Language and Speech, v41 n2 p203-26 Apr-Jun 1998

All three employed gated word recognition with judgments of disfluency for spontaneous utterances containing disfluencies and for three kinds of fluent control utterances from the same six speakers.
