Experimental Treatment

Group I: Perceptual training with a speaker with dysarthriaExperimental Treatment1 Intervention

To examine the effect of perceptual training with speakers with dysarthria, we use a standard three-phase perceptual training protocol involving pretest, training, and posttest phases, in which speech samples from a single speaker with dysarthria are utilized for all three phases.
