Listeners are better at predicting speakers similar to themselves (2020)
Journal Article
Hadley, L. V., Fisher, N. K., & Pickering, M. J. (2020). Listeners are better at predicting speakers similar to themselves. Acta Psychologica, 208, Article 103094. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.actpsy.2020.103094

Although it takes several hundred milliseconds to prepare a spoken contribution, gaps between turns in conversation tend to be much shorter. To produce these short gaps, it appears that interlocutors predict the end of their partner’s turn. The theor... Read More about Listeners are better at predicting speakers similar to themselves.
