Summary:This report is one of a regular series on the status and progress of studies on the nature of speech, instrumentation for its investigation, and practical applications. Manuscripts cover the following topics: Acoustics in Human Communication: Evolving Ideas About the Nature of Speech; Motor-Sensory Feedback Formulations: Are We Asking the Right Questions?; Phonetic Representation and Speech Synthesis by Rule; Relationships Between Speech Perception and Speech Production in Normal Hearing and Hearing-Impaired Subjects; Accessibility of the Voicing Distinction for Learning Phonological Rules; Influence of Vocalic Context on Perception of the (sh) - (s) phonetic Distinction: II. Spectral Factors; Exploring a Vibratory Systems Analysis of Human Movement Production; Properties of Slowly Adapting Joint Receptors Do Not Readily Predict Perception of Limb Position; Perceiving Phonetic Segments; Reading, Linguistic Awareness and Language Acquisition; A Range-Frequency Effect on Perception of Silence in Speech; Perception of Stop Consonants before Low Unrounded Vowels; Toward a Theory of Apractic Syndromes; Comparison of Parametric Representations for Monosyllabic Word Recognition in Continuously Spoken Sentences.
