p452fig12.48 (left column) In experiments of (Repp etal 1978), the silence duration between the words GRAY and SHIP was varied, as was the duration of the fricative noise in S, with surprising results.  (right column) The red arrow directs our attention to surprising perceptual changes as silence and noise durations increase.  See the text for details.<BR>||  Perceptual integration of acoustic cues, data  (Repp etal 1978).  GRAY-> silence duration-> SHIP (noise duration from start of word).  Noise duration vs silence duration: GRAY SHIP <-> [GREAT SHIP <-> GRAY CHIP] <->  GREAT CHIP.
