Syllable rate vs. segment rate in perceived speech rate. Aldholmi, Y. In Proceedings of 11th International Conference of Experimental Linguistics, 2020. ExLing Society. ![Syllable rate vs. segment rate in perceived speech rate [pdf]](https://bibbase.org/img/filetypes/pdf.svg "pdf")
Paper doi abstract bibtex This study examines the impact of differences in segment rate, which do not correspond to differences in syllable rate, on perceived speech rate in an unfamiliar language. Japanese speakers who were unfamiliar with Arabic judged the speech rate of Arabic stimuli with two levels of syllable complexity on a 1-7 scale. The participants perceived the complex syllable stimuli as being faster than the simple syllable stimuli. This is interpreted as evidence that differences in segment rate do influence speech rate perception. Hence, the significance of syllable rate, rather than of segment rate, for perceiving speech rate in some previous studies was likely due to extraneous factors associated with the stimuli and participants in those studies.
