- Title
THE DISTRIBUTION OF PAUSE DURATIONS IN SPEECH.
- Authors
Goldman-Eisler, Frieda
- Abstract
The article is concerned with the lengths of the individual pauses and their distribution over extensive tracts of speech. The technique rests as before on the transformation of sound to visible recordings. The pen-recorder connected with the tape recorder was run at a speed such that 3 mm on the visual record represented one second. The lengths of individual pauses are distributed differently for different individuals. The distribution of pause lengths is determined by the type of situation in which speech is uttered.
