Groups of listeners heard intelligibility tests in noise and in quiet. The speakers read with delays of .02 to .09 second introduced into their side-tone. The listener heard either the original saying or the original plus the delayed saying of speech material. Speech was received less accurately in every condition except when the speakers read with a .05, .08 or .09 second delay in their sidetone. Conclusions: (1) Listeners hear words more accurately if words are received only as an original message; superimposing an original and a delayed rendition of a word renders the word less intelligible under the delay times studies; (2) The delay of .05 second in the side-tone of the speaker appeared to affect the reception of his speech benificially; the intelligibility scores for this condition were significantly higher than at other delay times; (3) An intelligibility increment similar to but less than that observed for the .05 second delay was present for the .08 and .09 second delay of side-tone; (4) The effects of the delayed side-tone upon the intelligibility of a speaker became evident in a period of less than two minutes.

Spoken Word Recognition covers the entire range of processes involved in recognizing spoken words - both in and out of context. It brings together a number of essays dealing with important theoretical questions raised by the study of spoken word recognition - among them, how do we understand fluent speech as efficiently and effortlessly as we do? What are the mental processes and representations involved when we recognize spoken words? How do these differ from those involved in reading written words? What information is stored in our mental lexicon and how is it structured? What do linguistic and computational theories tell us about these psychological processes and representations?The multidisciplinary presentation of work by phoneticians, linguists, psychologists, and computer scientists reflects the growing interest in spoken word recognition from a number of different perspectives. It is a natural consequence of the mediating role that lexical representations and processes play in language understanding, linking sound with meaning.Following the editors' introduction, the contributions and their authors are: Acoustic-Phonetic Representation in Word Recognition (David B.
