TY - JOUR DA - 2014 KW - subjects were asked to re-synchronize speech and gesture with a slider. Both studies show that the synchrony of the two modalities is far less significant in perception than was assumed a priori through the observation of production. In fact KW - 1985 KW - Kendon KW - 2004 KW - 1980). We conducted two studies on the perceptual integration of desynchronized speech and gesture in listeners. In the first study KW - people rated how natural asynchronies in multimodal stimuli felt to them KW - both with speech before and after the gesture up to 600ms. In the second study KW - 2005 KW - McNeill KW - 2007 KW - robots KW - etc. Strikingly in contrast to other areas of psycholinguistics KW - the focus in gesture research has mainly been on production rather than perception (e.g. Feyereisen KW - since the production synchrony is programmed into virtual agents KW - Schegloff KW - 1984). Presumably KW - the bimodal synchrony is deemed highly relevant for perception KW - 1998 KW - de Ruiter & Wilkins KW - 2000 KW - Krauss KW - de Ruiter KW - 2011 KW - 1980 KW - 2005) and numerous studies have engaged in analyzing the significance of synchronized production for meaning creation: There is a semantic connection between the two modalities (e.g. Kirchhof KW - audiovisual integration KW - speech-gesture synchrony KW - speech may precede or follow gesture by ±500 ms or more and one might not even notice. It follows that speech-gesture synchrony is merely a production phenomenon. Key words: perception KW - Abstract Spontaneous gestures and concurrent speech are produced approximately simultaneously (e.g.Kendon LA - eng PY - 2014 TI - Desynchronized speech-gesture signals still get the message across UR - https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:0070-pub-27038047 Y2 - 2024-11-24T03:13:17 ER -
