A paired comparison procedure was employed to compare listening-rate preferences of 40 adult female subjects. Recordings of a standard prose passage were time-altered to yield nine rates (100 to 300 words per minute). Two different time alteration techniques were employed. One technique (VOCOM-I) altered the passage by a selective vowel compression-pause deletion procedure, while the other technique (VARISPEECH-I) employed a systematic expansion/deletion process for alteration. Two separate master tapes were presented to the subjects. A comparison of the rank ordering of rates for the two tapes shows a similarity in over-all listening rate preferences. Differences in rate preference in past research may be related to the instrumental methods used to alter speech.

Hyperlipidemia is one of the most widespread medical disorder in female and its complications are increasing all over the world, leading to life threatening medical problems like cardiovascular diseases, stroke and peripheral vascular diseases. An association between hyperlipidemia and hypertension has been identified. The study was carried out to observe the association of serum triglycerides and total cholesterol level with hypertension in adult female subjects. This cross sectional study was conducted in the Department of Physiology, Dhaka Medical College, Dhaka, during the period of January 2011 to December 2011. A total number of sixty female subjects were selected with age ranging from 30 to 50 years. Among them 30 female subjects with hypertension were included from the out-patient department of Medicine, Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Dhaka as study group (B) and 30 apparently healthy females were taken as control group (A) for comparison. Estimation of fasting serum triglycerides (TG) and total cholesterol (TC) levels were done by enzymatic method in the Department of Physiology, Dhaka Medical College Dhaka in both groups. Systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure of all participants were recorded by standard method. Data were analyzed by Unpaired Student’s- test and Pearson's correlation co-efficient (r) test as applicable. The values of fasting serum TG level were significantly higher in subjects with hypertension than those of control. Fasting serum TC level was significantly higher in subjects with hypertension in comparison to controls also. In subjects with hypertension fasting serum TG and fasting serum TC levels were higher and showed positive correlation with systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Present study revealed that systolic and diastolic blood pressure has positive relationship with fasting serum triglyceride (TG) and fasting serum cholesterol (TC) levels.

The Petrie Block Test was used to measure kinesthetic aftereffect in a sample of 60 normal adult female subjects. In addition to the establishment of normative data for this sample, several procedural questions raised by other investigators were addressed. It was determined that the use of ascending trials produced more accurate baseline measures than the alternate use of ascending and descending trials. Also, order of test presentation affected baseline measures. Since a rather large proportion of this sample was comprised of stimulus-governed individuals, some factors related to their particular perceptual style were examined.
