Abstract

The review presents experimental data on auditory adaptation to specific speech parameters—temporal (tempo-rhythmic) and spectral characteristics of the speech signal, including the fundamental frequency, vowel formants, timbre features. The aftereffects of the extralinguistic information in spoken language—the gender and age of the speaker, his/her emotional state—are considered. It is shown how adaptation is involved in the segregation of competing speech streams and in the mechanisms of auditory attention. The role of auditory adaptation in the development of speech processing and the occurrence of voice prototypes during ontogenesis are discussed. The main models of speech processing and experimental data on phonemic analysis are presented. The results of experimental and model studies indicate that adaptive processes play an important role in enhancing the signal-background contrast and improve signal identification. It is important to consider the auditory adaptation to specific speech parameters when developing rehabilitation procedures for patients with hearing aids and designing technical speech recognition systems.
