1. Examining the Influence of Disfluencies on Reaction Time : An Exploratory Study Investigating the Impact of Entropy in Language
Kandidat-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskapSammanfattning : The current study aimed to investigate the effects of disfluencies, specifically filled pauses (FP) and unfilled pauses (UP), on reaction time (RT) to target words and hyponyms of target hypernyms(targets = target words + hyponyms of target hypernyms). Two experiments were conducted, withthe first experiment examining the impact of disfluencies on RTs to target words in utterances, whilethe second experiment explored their effect on hyponyms of target hypernyms.

2. Speech Fluency and Ageing
Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för lingvistik och kognitiv semiotik; Lunds universitet/Allmän språkvetenskapSammanfattning : Several physiological changes in the speech production process in old age have been documented, yet studies of cognitive changes are few and inconclusive. The current study investigates changes in rates of disfluencies, rates of speech errors and speech rate to examine if speech fluency changes throughout the adult lifespan, as well as whether the influence of task complexity on fluency remains constant regardless of the age of the speaker.

3. Utvecklingsmönster i stamning hos förskolebarn : En explorativ studie
Magister-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Blom Johansson: LogopediSammanfattning : Research on the development of stuttering in children has shown that stuttering passes without treatment for the majority, but becomes persistent for some children. Researchers have tried to identify predictive factors for these outcomes, including the type and frequency of disfluency. LÄS MER
4. Screaming yellow: An exploratory study of how speakers gesture and speak about colour and colour theory
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Masterprogram: Språk och språkvetenskapSammanfattning : The abstract subject of colour is a widely studied subject in spoken languages. However, very little is known about colour in relation to gesture. A substantial part of the literature on gesture and abstract content is concerned with referential gestures and especially metaphorical mapping. LÄS MER
5. Förekomsten av disfluenser hos svenska 6-åringar med typisk utveckling
Magister-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för klinisk och experimentell medicin; Linköpings universitet/HälsouniversitetetSammanfattning : Disfluenser innebär naturliga tvekfenomen och de förekommer med individuella variationer hos samtliga talare. Förekomsten av disfluenser i barntal har hittills inte studerats i så stor utsträckning, vilket motiverar föreliggande uppsatsarbete. LÄS MER
