Development of Clear Speech

[ceaton at hesp.umd.edu]

Hello,

I am working with Dr. Nan Bernstein Ratner at the University of
Maryland on a project regarding speech entrainment/accommodation in
children. The following articles are good examples of the topic:

Hupp, J.M. & Jungers, M.K. (2009). Speech priming: An examination of
rate and syntactic persistence in preschoolers. British Journal of
Developmental Psychology, 27, 495-504.

Redford, M.A. & Gildersleeve-Neumann, C.E. (2009). The development of
distinct speaking styles in preschool children. Journal of Speech,
Language, and Hearing Research, 52, 1434-1448.

Wagner, L., Green-Havas, M. & Gillespie, R. (2010). Development of
children's comprehension of linguistic register. Child Development,
81, 1678-1686.

Is anyone aware of other work being done in this area (more
specifically: early development of clear speech registers, optional
phonological rules such as pallatization, and/or speech entrainment)?

Thank you for your assistance,
Cathy Eaton
