Familiarization to Dysarthric Speech1/15/2023 What's the best way to get used to dysarthric speech so it's easier to understand? Former doctoral student Mik Martinelli (now faculty at Midwestern State) led this computerized experiment to test two task methods with two training schedules to see which combination results in unfamiliar listeners understanding the speech of people with dysarthria, or speech that is hard to understand due to neurological or motor control effects. Effective training could be used with health care professionals and family members of people who have had strokes, aphasia, Parkinson's, cerebral palsy, and so on. Paper
