Anotace

Whenever we speak, our voices convey information about us as individuals. Speakers may sound young, excited, or as if they are ill or bearing a secret; they can also reveal whether they are male of female or what region they come from. As listeners, we tend to make impressions of speakers based on their voice signals; however, the judgements we make are not always necessarily accurate.

The course is dedicated to anyone interested in the spoken voice as one of the primary means by which we project our identity and achieve our goals in social interaction from both the speech production and perception perspectives, including auditory analyses of speech samples.
