Poorer hearing drives reliance on more prosodic cues for affect judgement
Evidence
Among the hearing-aid users, those with poorer hearing used additional prosodic cues (i.e., tempo and pitch) for their arousal ratings, compared to those with relatively good hearing. For valence, pitch was the only acoustic cue that was associated with valence. — Dijk, Pim van, Physiology, Psychoacoustics and…, 1348
