Abstract

The aim of this talk is to investigate how results of rhythmic metrics may vary across a variety of tasks in unimpaired speakers, and whether such performance variations are also observable in disordered speakers. In addition, the acoustic results will be compared to qualitative, perceptual analyses in order to establish the validity of the metrics in highlighting differences between patterns of impairment.
