Phonological Space in the Speech of the Hearing Impaired.
Shukla, R. S.
Journal of Communication Disorders, v22 n5 p317-25 Oct 1989
First and second formant frequencies of the vowels /a/, /i/, and /u/ were measured to determine the phonological space in the speech of 30 Kannada-speaking hearing-impaired individuals in India. Compared to controls, subjects' phonological space was found to be reduced, primarily due to the lowering of the second formant of the vowel /i/. (Author/JDD)
