Lipreading
The person relies ONLY on the visual signal provided by the talker’s face for recognizing speech
General Tendencies of Speech Reading
- Normal hearing persons rely on speech reading
- Persons with hearing loss will rely more on the visual signal for speech recognition
- the greater the hearing loss, the more the reliance on visual cues
Speech Reading
- lip cues
- facial expression cues
- gesture cues
- body language cues
- linguistic
- situational cues
- auditory cues*
Speechreading Poor Predictor
- IQ
- Educational achievement
- Duration of hearing loss
- Practice lipreading
- age of onset of hearing loss
- socioeconomic state
Speechreading Good Predictor
- Gender: Females are better
- Age: young better than old
- neurophysiology measures
- world knowledge
- capitalize contextual cues guess
- linguistic abilities
METS
Message
Environment
Talker
Spechreader
Difficulties Lipreading
- one third speech sounds visible
- mid and back consonants invisible
- vowels not highly visible
- rapidity of speech – 150 to 250 word/min
- coarticulation
- Stress can change appearance of word
- Taker variability
- Visemes and homophenes
Visemes
Groups of Speech sounds that APPEAR identical on the lips
- f & v
- p & b
Homophenes
- Words that look identical on the mouth
- 40-60% of words
Message
- Structure
- Frequency
- neighborhoods
- context
Environment
- Viewing angle
- distance
- room condition
Talkers
- easier to lip read someone familiar
- females are easier to lip read than males
Speechreader
- audibility
- use of appropriate amplification system, ALDS cochlear implant
- Use of eyeglasses if necessary
- Emotional physical state
Oral Interprets
trained professional who sits in clear view of a person with a hearing loss and silently repeats a talkers message as it is spoken
Bisensory Perception
- what we see may influence what we hear
- what we hear may influence what we see
- McGurk Effect
Holistic Approach
- Increase the child’s knowledge of the speechreading process
- Increase the child’s ability to generate strategies to facilitate more successful communication
- Increase the child’s confidence in the efficacy of high probability success
- Increase the child’s tolerance for communicative situations that have a higher degree of frustration
- Increase the child’s ability to generate personal goals for improving speechreading
- Increase the child’s motivation to improve speech reading abilities
Developing Speech reading skills
- First step is usually instructional and includes consideration for the process
- Second step may require speechreaders to reflect on their habits and skills
- Third step may require speechreaders to identify difficult listening situations and formulate solutions
- Fourth step is introduction of formal speechreading lessons
Analytic Speechreading Training
- Focus on vowel and consonant recognition
- Underlying logic this curricula is to gradually increase reliance on auditory signal for discriminating phonemic contrasts while they are speechreading
Analytic Consonant Objective
- will discriminate consonant pairs that differ in place of production and share either voice or manner
- will discriminate consonant pairs that share similar place of production but differ in manner and voice
- will discriminate consonant pairs that share place and manner and/or voice
- will identify consonants that share manner of production, using a four-item response set
- will identify consonants from a six-item response set of voiced or voiceless consonants
this percent of Hearing Impaired people have accompanying visual deficiencies
38-58%
When BOTH auditory and visual information is available
individuals with hearing loss tend to do better on communication tasks
Analytic Approach
percieve each of the basic parts before the whole can be identified
- syllable considered to be the basic unit
Synthetic Approach
perception of the whole is paramount to perception of the basic part
- sentence is considered to be the basic unit
Children
- Little research regarding children

- children may have greater potential for benefit from speechreading training than adults
Synthetic Speechreading Training Objectives
- will follow simple directions using a closed set of response
- will identify a sentence illustration from a set of four dissimilar pictures
- will identify a sentence illustration from a set of four similar pictures
- will listen plus lipread to two related sentences, and then draw a picture about them or paraphrase them
- will speechread a paragraph-long narrative and then answer questions about it
Speechreading Definition
The person attends to both the talker's facial expressions AND gestures, and any other available cues
Lipreading Definition
the person relies ONLY on the visual signal provided by the talker's face for recognizing speech
normal hearing person
relies on speechreading
person with hearing loss
will rely more on the visual signal for speech recognition
the greater the hearing loss
the more the reliance on visual cues
Speechreading for communication
- normal hearing adults

- infants
