ABSTRACT:
Electronic apparatus is disclosed which is usable to determine the fluency of a person's speech. This apparatus may monitor a dialogue directly, may be connected to a telephone to monitor a dialogue, or may be connected to be responsive to a recording of the dialogue. The apparatus determines the number of hesitation pauses of joint silence of both persons bounded by speech uttered by the subject which pauses are in excess of a time interval in the order of one second of time. The apparatus gives an indication, either visible or audible, when the number of such pauses exceeds a presettable limit per unit of time. The apparatus may be used by the medical profession to determine in a subject the existence of present clinical coronary artery disease where the rate of such hesitation pauses is in excess of a presettable value. It may also be used by disc jockeys, sales personnel, executives, or the like. The foregoing abstract is merely a resume of one general application, is not a complete discussion of all principles of operation or applications, and is not to be construed as a limitation on the scope of the claimed subject matter.
