Abstract

This study examined the effects of context type on the use of context while lipreading and listening. Results indicate that the ability to use context by type and modality are not global skills, but instead are specific to the context type and perceptual modality in use. Results further suggest that context is more readily used in the visual channel over the auditory channel.
