Abstract

(1) The reader will be able to describe the major types of acoustic analysis available for the study of speech, (2) specify the components needed for a modern speech analysis laboratory, including equipment for recording and analysis, and (3) list possible measurements for various aspects of phonation, articulation and resonance, as they might be manifest in neurologically disordered speech.
