Q

Speech production definition

A

Generation of airflow and air pressures
by the displacement (movement) of bodily structures
which causes disturbances of air that
constitute phonemes, the smallest meaningful unit of sound

Q

What is speech perception

A

Understanding a spoke. Language

17
Q

How speech perception is accomplished

A
  1. Hearing the message transmitted via sound waves (acoustic energy)
  2. Transformed mechanical energy (middle ear)
  3. Transformed into hydraulic energy (in the cochlea)
    4/5. Transformed into a neural impulse that follows the auditory pathway to the brain
  4. Processed in Heschls gyrus
    Associated with meaning in Wernickes area
18
Q

Mechanical wave theory

A

Wave transmission through a variety of mediums such as solids, liquids, and gases

19
Q

Foundation of communication

A

Language
Speech

20
Q

Bioacoustics

A

How we are able to manage these processes and how these sound have effect on us and our environment

21
Q

Musical acoustics

A

How we can combine different sounds to create more musical effects
Sounds in music, vibrations, number hz and waveforms

22
Q

Architectural acoustics

A

Acoustics of structures and buildings
Buildings have some acoustic variation, and skyscrapers have slight vibration
Building a building that will not crumble when its affect by or a sound is introduced around the building

23
Q

Psychoacoustics

A

Psychological response to sound

24
Q

Structural acoustics

A

Deal with the way sound is generated and travels within a particular space
Churches, theaters, etc.
Look to see how sound bounces off the walls. Make locations acoustically sound
Important in school settings to make classroom more acoustically amenable

25
Q

Speech communication as it relates to acoustics

A

Speech production and perception in therapy

26
Q

Ultrasonics

A

Area of acoustics that deals with sounds above the normal human hearing level: 20,000 hertz
E.g. sonogram
Interpret sound as it travels around a body part

27
Q

Environmental acoustics

A

Individual area and space
How sound is transmitted through the medium of air

28
