For example, it is enough to hear part of the vowel [u] to identify the entire lexical item "pool", because co-articulation effects provide the listener with information about the preceding and subsequent phonemes (see, e.g., Warren and Marslen-Wilson 1987).
Items on delay in spoken language, articulation, pedantic speech, social play, shyness, hobby items, and organisation skills were, therefore, excluded, and exploratory factor analyses of the remaining 16 adult items gave eigenvalues for males and females indicating two, three, or four factor solutions as plausible (Table 4).
For the FIS [B], items B3 (work) and B4 (social activities) demonstrated acceptable content validity (0.92 and 0.83, respectively), but items B1 (eating) and B2 (articulation) did not reach acceptable values (0.75 and 0.67, respectively).
"You hear incredible articulation and detail with these headphones.
The primary outcomes are speech sound and prosodic accuracy on a customised 292 item probe and the Diagnostic Evaluation of Articulation and Phonology inconsistency subtest administered prior to treatment and 1 week, 1 month and 4 months post-treatment.
Clear articulation, field testing, and modification of poorly understood items are required to avoid misinterpretation and assure accurate data collection, and it can be accomplished with the interim evaluation.
The primary outcome will be speech (articulation) and prosodic (speech melody) accuracy on the specifically designed 292 item probe [ 49] administered during baseline and the three post-treatment assessments.
The items are grouped according to Collins' model into the factors modelling, coaching, articulation, exploration with the addition of an element about the creation of a safe learning environment as this has been associated with successful learning in clinical environments [ 8] (see Additional file 1).
Articulation, pedalling, dynamics.
