“…Many clinical voice evaluation protocols require listeners to rate individual voice features (e.g., Kempster et al, 2009;Hirano, 1981;Laver et al, 1981), and thus implicitly assume the first model. However, the present results, as well as results of a number of behavioral and neuropsychological studies (e.g., Van Lancker et al, 1985a,b;Li and Pastore, 1995;Schweinberger et al, 1997;Andics et al, 2010;Melara and Marks, 1990), are more consistent with the second view of quality. For example, in priming experiments (Schweinberger et al, 1997) reaction times to famous voices were significantly faster when listeners had previously heard a different exemplar of the voice.…”
