Definition of pause

[RobbyZ]

Dear Britta,

A lot of people take 250ms as a cut-off point. Pauses shorter than
that could reflect breathing patterns and articulatory movements.
They all base this choice on work by Goldman-Eisler:
Goldman-Eisler, F., 1968. Psycholinguistics: experiments in
spontaneous speech. London: New York, Academic Press.
Goldman-Eisler, F., 1968. Pauses, clauses, sentences. Language and
Speech, 15, 1030-113


Best, Rob Zwitserlood
