Abstract

Three speechreading factors were examined: whether the speechreader can identify the /h/ before the vowel in monosyllabic words, whether the speechreader can identify the initial or final consonant voicing in mono-syllabic words not otherwise different, and whether syllable stress can be identified by speechreading. Subjects were undergraduate students in a speechreading course. The identification of the /h/ before a vowel and the identification of voicing were not made on better than a chance basis. Subjects did not identify dissyllabic words spoken with correct stress better than with incorrect stress, but the identification of syllable stress with spoken numbers was better than chance.
