Abstract
A study investigates the degree to which duration affects human processing of reduced speech stimuli, with the hope of aiding in the building of a comprehensive model of how humans perceive reduced speech. Responses were gathered from 51 participants, 2 sets of responses had to be excluded from the analysis due to lost or damaged data. Participants in this study were students from introductory level Linguistics classes at the University of Alberta, and received partial course credit for participation. The study consisted of cloze tasks with an auditory component, where sections of reduced speech corresponding to between one and five words were removed from spontaneous utterances and replaced with silence.
