Effects of Speech and Non-Speech Sounds on Short-Term Memory and Possible Implications for In-Vehicle Use Research paper for the ICAD05 workshop "Combining Speech and Sound in the User Interface"

Using auditory output for presenting non-critical but relevant events to the car driver, we compared the effect of four groups of sounds (two speech, two non-speech) on short-term memory and on response time and accuracy. The results indicate that longer speech messages can disrupt short-term memory performance whereas earcons, auditory icons, and single keywords do not cause this effect. Earco...
