Preprints (www.preprints.org) | NOT PEER-REVIEWED | Posted: 18 June 2018 doi:10.20944/preprints201806.0280.v1 Abstract The voice contains elementary social communication cues, conveying speech, as well as paralinguistic information pertaining to the emotional state and the identity of the speaker. In contrast to vocal-speech and vocal-emotion processing, voice-identity processing has been less explored. This seems surprising, given the day-to-day significance of person recognition by voice. A valuable approach to unravel how voice-identity processing is accomplished is to investigate people who have a selective deficit in recognising voices.
