“…With regard to vowel context, Lintz and Sherman [16] found that perception of nasality was greater on low vowels than high vowels. Conversely, Moore and Sommers [15] found that perception of nasality was greater on high vowels than low vowels. Lintz and Sherman [16] and Moore and Sommers [15] both found that tongue advancement was less closely related to perception of nasality than tongue height.…”

“…Conversely, Moore and Sommers [15] found that perception of nasality was greater on high vowels than low vowels. Lintz and Sherman [16] and Moore and Sommers [15] both found that tongue advancement was less closely related to perception of nasality than tongue height. Therefore, changes in phonetic context can influence perception of nasality, and consideration of phonetic context is important in any study of nasality.…”

“…With regard to consonant context, Moore and Sommers [15] found that manner of articulation has an effect on perception of nasality (glides were least nasal and fricatives and affricates were most nasal). With regard to vowel context, Lintz and Sherman [16] found that perception of nasality was greater on low vowels than high vowels.…”

The effects of variation in speaking rate on relative nasal airflow (percent nasal flow) and on the perception of nasality were examined. In addition, the effects of gender and speech rate elicitation techniques (metronome-controlled, self-controlled) were examined. Nineteen normal speakers each produced a stimulus phrase containing nonnasal sounds. Oral and nasal airflows were measured using the Rothenberg aerodynamic system. Results indicated that percent nasal flow and perception of nasality were both greater at slow speaking rates compared to normal and fast rates. Males were perceived as more nasal than females. The metronome-controlled rates were associated with greater nasality than the self-controlled rates. Discussion focuses on physiological correlates to these findings.

“…High vowels have been shown to be judged more hyper nasal than low vowels [7]. Moore and Som mers [5] have shown the hierarchic order of perceived nasality in CVC syllables in cleft palate speech.…”

“…How ever, the instrumental measurements must also be subjectively interpreted in relation to perception [3], Phonetic content has been shown to in fluence the perceived defectiveness of cleft palate speech [4][5][6], thus contributing to the inconsistency of cleft palate speech defects and to the difficulty of evaluating speech parameters like hypernasality. High vowels have been shown to be judged more hyper nasal than low vowels [7].…”
