title: Some trait judgments made on the basis of voice alone.
abstract: College students were asked to evaluate demographic considerations of four distinctly differing speech samples of the same content. Subjects made decisions based solely on the voice despite the fact that all selections were recorded by the same person but varying the prosody. The results support the hypothesis that we are pre-judged by our voice aspects regardless of the content of our speech.
