简要总结
This study meets the NIH definition of a clinical trial, but is not a treatment study. Instead, the goal of this study is to investigate how hearing ourselves speak affects the planning and execution of speech movements. The study investigates this topic in both typical speakers and in patients with Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) implants. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Does the way we hear our own speech while talking affect future speech movements?
- Can the speech of DBS patients reveal which brain areas are involved in adjusting speech movements? Participants will read words, sentences, or series of random syllables from a computer monitor while their speech is being recorded. For some participants, an electrode cap is also used to record brain activity during these tasks. And for DBS patients, the tasks will be performed with the stimulator ON and with the stimulator OFF.

结局指标
主要结局
Reach direction for arm movements
时间窗: Outcome measures will be made only during a single data recording session (~2 hours).
Measuring initial reach direction for arm movements allows us to measure the direction that was planned before movement onset.
Amplitude of long-latency auditory evoked potentials (from EEG recordings) responses
时间窗: Measurements will be made only from electroencephalography (EEG) recordings made during the test session (~2 hours).
Amplitude of the N1 component (in microvolt) will be measured in response to both probe tones and to a subject's own speech onset.
Local field potentials recorded by neural implants
时间窗: Measurements will be made only from DBS implant recordings made during the test session (~1-2 hours).
Local field potentials (LFPs) will be recorded by the PerceptPC DBS implants and used to measure changes in power spectrum density across different phases of the tasks. Additionally, LFPs will be used to conduct event-related analyses.
Temporal measures of speech syllable sequence learning
时间窗: Outcome measures will be made only during a single data recording session (~0.5 hours)
1. Speech onset time (in milliseconds); 2. Average syllable duration (in milliseconds)
Accuracy during speech syllable sequence learning
时间窗: Outcome measures will be made only during a single data recording session (~0.5 hours)
Sequence accuracy (in percent)
Speech formant frequencies
时间窗: Measurements will be made only from acoustic recordings made during the test session (~1 hour).
The frequencies of the subject's first two formants (F1, F2) for each test word will be measured from spectrographic displays with overlaid Linear Predictive Coding formant tracks.
