早期的研究报告系统的差异，在发生的话语最后不规则发声的扬声器;这里报告的工作调查人类听众是否记得这个扬声器特定的信息，并可以访问它在必要时（使用此线索在扬声器识别的先决条件）。亲自熟悉的声音的扬声器的听众提出了对语音样本：一个与原来的和其他转换的最后发声类型。当被要求选择一对中更接近说话者声音的一个时，大多数听众倾向于选择未被操纵的标记（即使他们认为它们听起来基本上同样自然）。这表明，话语最后的音高周期不规则性是个别扬声器声音的心理表征的一部分，虽然这可能在一定程度上取决于个人的扬声器和听众。
Earlier studies report systematic differences across speakers in the occurrence of utterance-final irregular phonation; the work reported here investigated whether human listeners remember this speaker-specific information and can access it when necessary (a prerequisite for using this cue in speaker recognition). Listeners personally familiar with the voices of the speakers were presented with pairs of speech samples: one with the original and the other with transformed final phonation type. Asked to select the member of the pair that was closer to the talker’s voice, most listeners tended to choose the unmanipulated token (even though they judged them to sound essentially equally natural). This suggests that utterance-final pitch period irregularity is part of the mental representation of individual speaker voices, although this may depend on the individual speaker and listener to some extent.
