The phrase "articulation rate" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to speech, linguistics, or communication, referring to the speed at which someone speaks.
Example: "The study measured the articulation rate of participants to assess their clarity and fluency in speech."
Alternatives: "speech rate" or "talking speed".
The most significant correlations for both the speaking and articulation rate measures are found with the Psychomotor Retardation ratings.
Obviously, the articulation rate becomes so high that proper F0 control can no longer be executed.
Ladd et al. [4] showed that in accentual F0 rises, rise time becomes shorter the faster the articulation rate.
Fujisaki and Hirose [5] reported that accent command amplitudes Aa, too, decrease in faster articulation rate conditions.
Other continuous features are related to the fundamental frequency (F0), the articulation rate, and the spectral information in voiced and unvoiced portions of speech.
This is in contrast to articulation rate, which is computed as the phone rate over only the time during which speech is active.
Caspers and van Heuven [3] reported that rises in Dutch are steeper at fast articulation rates.
Within the framework of the Fujisaki model, Fujisaki and Hirose [6] found that phrase command magnitude Ap is lower for speakers with fast articulation rates than for speakers with a normal or slow rate.
In more recent work on Swiss German, Leemann [8] showed that higher articulation rates can lead to a reduction of phrase boundaries, which has an effect on the other intonation phrases, making them overall longer in duration.
When observing the patient's spontaneous speech, the interviewer will note and comment on paralinguistic features such as the loudness, rhythm, prosody, intonation, pitch, phonation, articulation, quantity, rate, spontaneity and latency of speech.
In spite of these efforts, the recognition rate for articulation disorders is still lower than that of physically unimpaired persons.
