“…Other studies have examined the role of higher level aspects such as phonetic content (Amino et al, 2006;Amino and Arai, 2009), fluency in the spoken language (Thompson, 1987;K€ oster and Schiller, 1997;Maheshwari et al, 2008;Perrachione et al, 2011), or speaking rate (Van Lancker et al, 1985b). Studies have also considered the effects of the listening conditions on speaker identification, such as duration of exposure (Compton, 1963;Bricker and Pruzansky, 1966), delay between exposure and identification (Kerstholt et al, 2004), or familiarity with the unknown speaker (Van Lancker and Kreiman, 1987;Yarmey et al, 2001).…”
