Abstract
Speech communication research examines how spoken language is produced, transmitted and perceived. This involves a number of different disciplines, from linguistics and experimental psychology to speech and hearing sciences, and electrical engineering. The field covers a wide range of physiological, psychological, acoustic, and linguistic phenomena. In this presentation, I will highlight some ongoing research in the Speech Communication Technical Committee including work that examines how different challenges to the clarity of the speech signal, such as background noise, interlocutors who are not native speakers of the target language, or hearing loss, affect speech communication. This research has implications for improving communicative effectiveness for various talker and listener groups and human-machine interactions.
