The Comments by the Second Reviewer
Editor: Michael A.Duncan Reviewer: 67 Manuscript Number: jp067440i Manuscript Title: Restricted Geometry Optimization, a Different Way to Estimate Stabilization
Energies for Aromatic Molecules of Various Types Corresponding Author: Yu
Recommendation: The paper is probably publishable, but should be reviewed again in revised form before it is accepted.Additional Comments: Comments on the manuscript “Restricted Geometry Optimization, a Different Way to Estimate Stabilization Energies for Aromatic Molecules of Various Types” by Zhong-Heng Yu, Peng Bao Authors propose a restricted geometry optimization technique subject to pi orbital interaction constraints as a new measure of aromaticity.The approach is interesting and has certain merits.My main objection is that the manuscript is difficult to read and understand, mainly because of poor English.A substantial revision in this respect would be beneficiary.各位:
新的恶战开始了。投往JASA的文章没有被拒,但被批得很凶。尽管如此,审稿人和编辑 还是给了我们一个修改和再被审的机会。我们应当珍惜这个机会,不急不火。我们首 先要有个修改的指导思想。大家先看看审稿意见吧。

Manuscript #07-04147:
Editor's Comments:
This is my personal addition to the automatically generated email displayed above.Your manuscript has now been read by three knowledgeable reviewers, each of whom has provided thoughtful and detailed comments on the paper.The main points of the reviews are self-explanatory and mostly consistent across the reviews.Your presentation needs to be reworked substantially, and the reviews give you many suggestions for doing so.Clearly, the introduction needs to be much more concise and focused on the main questions you propose to answer, and why these questions are important.The rationale for selecting this unusual condition must be clear.Your discussion should focus on how the questions have been answered and what they mean.The results section is heavily dependent on statistical analyses that did not satisfy the reviewers.The figures and tables could be improved and perhaps consolidated.The methods could be shortened.For example, I think readers would take your word that these were nonsense sentences, or perhaps you could simply cite some other work where they were used.In general, it is unusual to present the first results as late as page 17 of a manuscript.Beyond the issues of presentation, some serious questions are raised by the reviewers about the design.The most notable(but not the only problem)is that there are no conditions where young and older listeners can be compared at nearly the same performance level in the baseline condition, and that at least floor effects and potentially ceiling effects are likely to significantly influence the older/younger comparison.The older listeners are tested at only one signal-to-noise ratio, at which performance was extremely poor.This asymmetric design where data for three signal-to-masker ratios are available for the younger listeners but only one for the older listeners is not ideal, but perhaps the comparison could have been salvaged if you had guessed a little better in selecting the signal-to-masker ratio for the older listeners.That didn't work out and you didn't adjust to it.I'm sorry to say that in my opinion this problem is so serious that it precludes publication of t!he older versus younger data in JASA, as I see no way of making a valid comparison with things as they are.Further, after reading the manuscript and the reviews, it seems to me that even the subjective impression comparison is difficult to interpret because of the different sensation levels at which the older and younger groups listened(if the target was fixed at 56 dBA).The Brungart et al.and Rakerd et al.data that you cite where the masker delay was manipulated over the 0 to 64 ms range would seem to have been a nice springboard for your study in older listeners.Would it not have been cleaner to have replicated those conditions with younger subjects in your lab, and then tested older listeners to see whether the patterns of data were different? There, at least, the target stimulus condition itself is not varying and there are archival data out there for comparison.As the reviews point out, your conditions present brand new complications because the ITI changes the spatial impression of the target, may change the energetic masking of the target, and distorts the target temporally all at the same time.Although the temporal distortions did not impair performance substantially in quiet, they may well in noise.Further, the spatial impressions created by the target in quiet are likely to be very different than those when the target is at v!ery low sensation levels in masking.Please investigate the literature on the influence of sensation level and noise on the strength of the precedence effect, particularly the perception of “echoes” at the longer delays.Yuan Chuan Chiang did her dissertation on this and published the results in JASA in 1998, but the first observation that noise can influence the breaking apart of a lead-lag stimulus into two images dates back at least to Thurlow and Parks(1961).To be sure, the sounds that we want to listen to are often accompanied by reflections, and I am not questioning the general validity of your conditions.However, it is important that your experimental design allows you separate out the various contributions to your results.I think there are several options for you to consider:(1)If you think it is very important to publish all the data you have right now, you could withdraw the manuscript and attempt to publish the data in another journal.(2)You could argue that the reviewers and I are wrong about the seriousness of the floor effect with the older listeners and submit a revision that includes the same data while making a convincing case for the validity of the older/younger comparison.Although this option is open to you, I don't think this is a promising alternative.(3)You could collect more data on older listeners under more favorable conditions where performance is better.With the added data this could either be a new manuscript, or, if such data were collected and the paper rewritten in a reasonable amount of time, it could be considered a revision of the current manuscript.The revision would be sent back to the reviewers.Of course, I cannot promise in advance that a manuscript even with these new data would be judged favorably by the reviewers.(4)You could drop the older/younger comparison from the manuscript and submit a much shorter version that includes only the younger data and focuses on the noise masker/speech masker distinction, perhaps analyzing your data to draw inferences about release from energetic versus informational masking from the data.Here too, it will be important to provide a clear rationale for what your specific question is about release from masking, why your conditions were chosen, and what new insights your data offer.I still worry about how spatial effects and the effects of temporal distortions are to be distinguished.(5)You could simply withdraw the manuscript and consider a more straightforward design for asking the questions you want to ask with older listeners.Thank your for submitting your manuscript to JASA.I hope the alternatives described will help guide you on how you should proceed from here.Whatever you decide to do, please consider the reviewers' comments very carefully as they have gone out of their way to provide you with suggestions on improving the presentation.Sincerely yours,Richard L.Freyman

No, because the term “interval-target interval” in the title required further explanation.MS#: 07-04147
Huang et al.“Effect of changing the inter-target interval on informational masking and energetic masking of speech in young adults and older adults.” This paper investigates the benefits of release from masking in younger and older listeners, as a function of inter-target interval(ITI)in two masker conditions(speech masking and noise masker).The same target speech was presented from two different locations simultaneously in two different maskers, one from each location(L or R).Results show that release from informational masking is evident in both younger and older listeners when the ITI was reduced from 64 ms to 0 ms.General comments:
1.Introduction needs to be rewritten:
• The general impression is that the introduction section is unnecessarily lengthy.There is too much unnecessary information, while some important terms and information are left unexplained.• The organization is poor and concepts are disjointed, jumping from place to place.For example, the authors spent 1.5 pages on reverberation and the difference between older and younger adults, than spent a full-page to talk about masking, and then came back to reverberation.• In addition, the authors did not clearly present the purpose of the study and the core of the issues under investigation.The authors mentioned that “the present study investigated whether changing the ITI over the whole precedence-operation range...can induce a release of target speech from speech masking or noise masking.” However, they did not explain how and why manipulating ITI can address their questions, questions that were not clearly stated anywhere in the paper.No hypothesis was provided in the paper and no explanation was given regarding how the experimental conditions or contrast of results in different conditions can answer the questions under investigation.2.Report of results and statistical analyses needs to be accurate and precise:
• Authors failed to provide results of statistical analyses in many occasions.• At the beginning of the result section for both the younger and older groups, the authors should clearly present the number of factors included in the analysis and which one was a between-subject factor and which ones were within-subject factors.Main effects and interaction(3-way and 2-way)should also be reported clearly.• Bonferroni correction was mentioned in the post-hoc analyses;however, no pvalue was reported.• The authors should not use the term “marginally significant”.It is either
“significant” or “nonsignificant”.I don't see p=0.084 is “marginally significant.”
• When you say percent release, do you mean percentage point difference between
the 64 ms ITI and other ITI values? For example, in the statement “...the release
amount was 31.9% under the speech-masking condition,...”, do you mean “31.9 percentage points”?
3.Baseline condition is questionable:
• The authors failed to provide clear explanation of the results.For example, the authors finally provided the definition of release from masking(on p.19)as
“...the release of speech from masking at each ITI is defined as the percent difference between the speech-identification at the ITI and the speech identification at the ITI of 64 ms(the longest ITI in this study).”
• It took me a while to understand what this means, and finally came up with the interpretation(if my interpretation is correct)of the data for the authors.It seems that when ITI was at 0 ms, the perceived spatial location is between the two maskers(spatial separation).But when the ITI was 32 and/or 64 ms, listeners heard two images(one from each side)and there was no spatial separation between the target speech and the masker on either side.Therefore, according to the authors, the release from masking is the performance difference between the ITI conditions when listeners heard only one image in a location different from the maskers', and the ITI conditions where two images from the masker locations were heard.However, I have a problem with the baseline condition(64 ms ITI in which two images were perceived).If the listeners could not fuse the image, did they hear a delay(echo)between the two targets? If so, the poor performance in the 64 ms condition can be partially due to the confusion/disruption induced by the echo in noise conditions in addition to the lack of spatial separation between the target and the masker.4.Subject recruitment criteria were unclear:
• The authors recruited both young and older adults in the study and claimed that both groups had “clinically normal hearing.” However, reading the fine details of their hearing thresholds(< 45 dB HL between 125 and 4k Hz), it is hard to accept that the hearing thresholds are within normal limits in the older group.There is at least a mild hearing loss below 4k Hz and mild-to-moderate hearing loss above 4k Hz(see Fig.1)in these subjects.The authors should explain the differences in the results in relation to the threshold differences between the two groups.• The threshold data provided in Fig.1 is average data.It is necessary to provide individual threshold data(at least for the older group)in a table format.5.Language problem:
• I understand that English is not the authors' native language.It is recommended that the authors seek assistance in proof-reading the manuscript before submission.6.Tables and Figures:
• Table 1 and 2 are not necessary since the information is presented in Fig.7
• The authors should provide legends in the figures.• The authors should provide error bars in the graphs in Fig 1.• It is hard to see the short ITI data in Fig.2
• The authors should consider changing the scale on the y-axis in Fig.4 to provide better visualization of the data.• Fig.6 should be deleted.Results could be clearly described in the text.Specific comments(this is by no means a complete list):
p.3 first par: The quote from Knudsen(1929)is not necessary.p.4 first & second par.The authors provided an exhaustive list of references in various place.I recommend they only cite the ones that are most relevant and representative.p.4 last sentence.“A listener subject to informational masking a target speech feels it difficult to segregate audible components of the target speech from those of masking speech.” This sentence is incomprehensible, please rewrite.p.5 first line, first par.“Masking(particularly information masking)of target speech can be reduced if the listener can use certain cues(perceived spatial location, acoustical features, lexical information, etc)to facilitate his/her selective attention to the target
speech.” References are needed for each cue listed in this sentence.p.5 line 5.“Age-related deficits...inhibition of goal-irrelevant information..., therefore may cause more speech-recognition difficulties” This sentence is coming out of the blue without further explanation.p.8-10.Please explain the terms “inter-loudspeaker interval”, “inter-masker interval”, “inter-target interval” before using them.p.11 line 11 “Moreover, if the recognition of target speech under either the speech masking condition or noise masking condition is significantly influenced by the ITI in younger adults, the present study further investigated whether there is an age-related deficit in the releasing effect of changing the ITI.” This sentence is incomprehensible.p.11 line 2 “The 36 young university students all had normal and balanced....” Change “balance” to “symmetrical.”
p.12 line 8 “Direct English translations of the sentences are similar but not identical to the English nonsense sentences that were developed by Helfer(1997)and also used in studies by Freyman et al.(1999, 2001, 2004)and Li et al.(2004).” I thought the sentences were created by the authors.So, are they a direct translation from the English version or created by the authors?
p.13 last par “For the two-source target presentation,....” This came out of the blue.The experimental conditions should be described clearly in a separate section.Schematic representation of the conditions could be included.p.15 line 8 “During a session, the target-speech sounds were presented at a level such that each loudspeaker, playing alone, would produce a sound pressure of 56 dBA.” Is this the rms level of speech? The level at 56 dBA seems a little low to me.It may sound very soft for the older listeners given that they have mild to moderate hearing loss.Can you explain why you chose such a low presentation level?
p.15 last line “There were 36((17+1)x2)testing condition for younger participants, and there were 32((15+1)x2)testing conditions for older participants.” The number of conditions for each group is not apparent to me.Could you explain further in the manuscript?
p.16 line 9 “...participated in additional speech-recognition experiments under the condition without masker presentation.” Where did the target speech come from? Front? Right? Or left? p.17-27.See comments on reporting results and statistical analysis under “General comments” point #2.p.23 line 12-13 “A 2(masker type)by 15(ITI)within-subject ANOVA confirms that the interaction between masker type and ITI was significant...” Since the interaction is significant, the authors should not simply interpret the main effects.p.29 line 9 Explain “self-masking” effect.Would the author expect a “self-masking” effect in noise?
p.30 last par first line “Specifically, when the SNR was-4 dB, changing the ITI(absolute value)from 64 to 0 ms led to only a small improvement in target-speech intelligibility, and the improvement was similar between the speech masking condition and the noise masking condition.” The amount of release from masking in the speech masker condition at-4 dB SNR may be limited by the ceiling effect.p.31 line 5 “In older participants, the reduction of the ITI also improved speech recognition under both the speech masking condition and the noise masking condition...”
It is hard to tell if there is a significant difference among the ITI conditions with the noise masker due to the floor effect.p.31 line 7 from bottom.“The results suggest a faster decay of temporal storage of the fine details of speech sound in older adults than in younger adults.Thus at long it is(16 ms or 32 ms), cues induced by the integration of leading and lagging target signals were weaker and/or not be well used in older participants.” First, the author should take into account the hearing loss in the older group.Second, this conclusion seems somewhat
contradictory to what the authors reported regarding the perceived image(s)of the target signal under various ITI conditions.All except for one younger subject perceived two
separate images at 32 ms ITI, but most of the older subjects still perceived the target as one image.p.32 2nd par.The discussion on the effect of inter-sound delay on ear channel acoustics came out of nowhere.Reviewer #2 Evaluations:
Reviewer #2(Good Scientific Quality):
Generally yessee general remarks.The referencing is occasionally excessive, e.g.the 17 references provided to back up the existence of informational masking on page 4, lines 13-17, or p28 lines 15-16.Some choice examples would generally suffice instead of these long lists of citations(see JASA guidelines).The English is satisfactory, with lots of minor comments(see 'detailed comments' below)
Reviewer #2(Tables/Figures Adequate):
The figures would benefit from being redrawn using appropriate graph-plotting software.In their current form, they are quite pixelated.The figures would benefit from a legend, when there are several symbols used on the same graphs.Figure 2 and Figure 3's x-axes should be suitably non-linear, because the points plotted for ITIs between-10 and 10 ms are illegible.Figure 3 is perhaps largely repeats information that is apparent in Figure 2.Also, the top panel is perhaps misleading, as the difference between the two conditions could be explained to some degree by a ceiling effect.The use of symmetry in Figure 3 should be applied to Figure 2, since we had no reason to expect left-right effects.Tables 1 and 2 should be omitted, since all their information is provided in a Figure.Reviewer #2(Concise):
There seem to be a large number of ANOVAs described in great detail.Perhaps these could be reduced to more essential statistics, or even omitted when the differences are clear from the figures(see 'general remarks' below).Reviewer #2(Appropriate Title and Abstract):
In the title, the term 'inter-target interval' could refer to many things, and it is not immediately obvious from the title that the paper has anything to do with the precedence effect.Reviewer #2(Remarks):
The authors have presented uncorrelated speech or noise maskers from two speakers, and presented the target speech from the same two speakers non-simultaneously, varying the time-interval(the inter-target interval, or ITI)between the two presentations.(1)Young listeners' speech-recognition: Novel differences were mentioned between the design of your experiment and seemingly similar experiments(Rakerd et al.2006;Brungart et al.2005).The discussion section would benefit from a comparison of the results from these experiments.There should be some mention of the general effect of ITI on speech-recognition, and some discussion about its cause and/or implications.(2)Age-related differences in speech-recognition: I was not entirely convinced that the differences could not be adequately explained by a combination of elderly listeners' increased susceptibility to energetic masking, elderly listeners' reduced ability to listen in the dips, and floor/ceiling effects.These simple explanations should receive more emphasis.Once they have been ruled out, more emphasis should be given to the apparent connection between the subjective results and the speech-recognition results(around 32 ms ITI).There should be more discussion about the meaning and importance of this interesting connection, and its implications for elderly listeners, perhaps mentioning auditory scene analysis.It's unfortunate that the elderly listeners were only tested for SNRs at which they had such poor speech recognition.(3)Age-related differences in subjective perception: Elderly listeners had reduced echo-thresholds for speech compared to young listeners.This seems to be a novel result.If this section is to be included, further discussion of relevant literature should be included, and further description of the method used to get these subjective responses.Perhaps this aspect could be published separately as a letter.Age-related differences were described as 'temporal decline'.If this term is to be used, it should perhaps be defined more carefully.Also, does it refer to the age-related differences in dip-listening, age-related differences in subjective perception, the interaction of subjective perception and speech-recognition, or some combination of these? If it is some combination, there should be further argument that the phenomena are related, perhaps incorporating other temporal-decline results from the literature.Overall, there is too much statistics and not enough interpretation of what the results mean.A major re-write is required, focusing on the important results in the Results section, and interpreting them in the Discussion section.-----------------MINOR COMMENTS
Pages 3-4
The second paragraph has somewhat flawed logic(the last sentence does not logically follow from the preceding sentences)and the conclusion isn't particularly relevant to the rest of the paper.It could be omitted.Page 11, lines 14-15: You describe the elderly listeners' audiograms as 'clinically normal'(also in the abstract)yet above, you suggest that some of them have 45 dB HL hearing losses for some pure tones.You might want to specify the definition of normal-hearing that you are using.I would agree with you(especially given their mean audiogram in Figure 1)that they are in the early stages of presbycusis, rather than normal-hearing.Describing them as simply 'normal-hearing' is perhaps misleading.Some indication of the range of the audiograms would be useful.Page 12, line 11.It might be helpful to include an example sentence and its translation, to save the reader referring back to the cited papers.Page 13, lines 7-14.-log(1/f)is the same as log(f);and the sum of log(f)is equal to log(the product of f).Thus you have balanced the product of the word frequencies.This seems an unusual measure: one nonsense word of frequency = 0 would not make the whole list unintelligible.Perhaps there are more meaningful comparisons of the distribution of word frequencies within a list, or perhaps that would be too much detail.It would suffice to say that the words were distributed pseudorandomly.Page 13, lines 20-21.Why was the 0.5-ms ITI not used for elderly listeners?
Page 14.A short summary of the conditions would be useful, for ease of reference.Page 15, lines 1-5: When the sentences were mixed, were their onsets simultaneous or randomised? Also, if there was no processing other than addition(e.g.phase-randomisation)would it not be better to refer to the masker as speech babble throughout, rather than noise?
Page 16, line 13: Perhaps it would be worth mentioning that participants were(say)given two options(broad or compact);or, if the participants were free to describe the stimulus in any terms, some description of the experimenter's process of interpretation should be mentioned.Pages 17-27: There are a large number of interactions mentioned.Not all of them have any influence on the discussion or conclusions.In fact, in many instances, there are no post hoc analyses to find the source of the interaction, nor descriptions of the effects.Not all interactions are interesting.Some may disappear under appropriate transformations;we wouldn't always expect linear effects with percent-correct recognition.However, some of the interactions you describe seem interesting.Comparing the middle-left, middle-right and bottom-left panels of Figure 2, or the two panels of Figure 4, leave me in no doubt that you have genuinely observed more release from speech maskers than noise maskers.More emphasis should be placed on describing these interesting interactions, and less emphasis should be placed on the raw statistics.Also the results section should be generally shortened, omitting statistics when the results are obvious from the figures.Example candidates for omission are:
-p17 last lineit didn't decrease at all for the older participants;also 'faster' is perhaps not the appropriate word in this context.Page 28, paragraph 1: The raised thresholds observed for elderly listeners is not a novel result, and perhaps the previous research showing this should be referenced.Page 28, line 22: 'Wingfield' rather than 'Wingfiled'.Page 29, line 19: 'fuses with' not 'fuse withs' Page 30, line 2: 'and' rather than 'and and' Page 30, line 6: 'maskers' not 'makers'
Page 30, line 5: '...fused;they...' or '...fused, but they...' rather than '...fused, they...'.The following point from 'co-variations' could perhaps be made more clearly.Page 30, line 16: 'sufficiently' rather than 'sufficient' Page 30, line 16: 'ITI-induced' rather than 'ITI-induce'.Page 32, line 16: '...manipulations, as long as they help...' Page 33, line 1: 'loudspeakers' rather than 'loudspeaker'.Page 33, line 3: 'one or more' rather than 'one or some'
Page 33, lines 9-10: 'several papers have failed to find any age-related effects...' rather than 'there are no age-related effects on the precedence effect'.Page 33, line 13: 'ITI-induced' rather than 'ITI0induced'.Page 34, line 1: 'became 8 ms or short' should be 'was 8 ms or shorter'.Page 34, line 5: 'masker' not 'maker'
Page 34, line 15: which condition is the 'non-reverberant condition'? Keep the terminology consistent to the rest of the document.(The same applies to the rest of the summary)
Page 37: Appendix 1 should be omitted, unless the spectral differences are described and interpreted.Page 37, line 8: 'sound-progressed software'? Page 37, line 10: 'spectral' rather than 'spectrum' Page 38: Appendix 2 could be omitted
Reviewer #3 Evaluations:
Reviewer #3(Good Scientific Quality):
The paper is vague and needs reworking to make clear the goals and hypotheses driving the work and the interpretation of the results.Reviewer #3(Appropriate Journal):
Yes.Reviewer #3(Satisfactory English/References):
The English is alright, but there are many typos and grammatical errors.Reviewer #3(Tables/Figures Adequate):
Yes.Reviewer #3(Concise):
No.The introduction is long and unfocused.Reviewer #3(Appropriate Title and Abstract):
The results do not tease apart informational vs.energetic masking contributions.In meaning of “inter-target interval” is not descriptive enough to be meaningful until after reading the methods.Reviewer #3(Remarks):
This paper presents results of an experiment conducted in young and older listeners listening to target speech embedded in competing signals.The experiment uses a complex set-up, including two competing maskers from different(symmetrically positioned)locations and a target that is played from both speakers while varying the timing of the target signals from the two speakers.The authors spend a *lot* of time trying to relate this set up to the precedence effect and difficulties of understanding speech in a room, fusion of a leading and a lagging sound, and temporal processing.The introduction is, indeed, long and hard to follow.It is not clear where the argument is going, or how the reviewed material influenced the design of the current experiments, let alone what the current experiment is trying to test.While all of the issues raised in the introduction undoubtedly contribute to the results obtained in the experiment, none of these ideas is explored fully enough to understand how or why they may be important in the current setup.What is the goal of the experiment? Why use this complex setup? What are the hypotheses for what will happen as a function of inter-target delay? For aging listeners? None of this is clear in the current presentation.Off the top of my head, here is a list of examples of the kinds of things that are very troubling in the manuscript:
There are never any clearly stated hypotheses for what should happen in the different settings, or why.There is no discussion or interpretation of the results that lends insight into what processes are contributing to the observed effects.The influences of energetic masking are not discussed and the results confound release from energetic and informational masking.While the overall long-term spectral average of the speech is shown to change only by a limited amount with inter-target delay, there is no discussion of what happens in the modulation domain(which, arguably, is the most relevant domain for speech understanding).There is no discussion of how envelope cues are affected, or what this could do to INTELLIGIBILITY as well as SEGREGATION of the sources.The single-source control(dashed line in the main figures)is not an adequate control for energetic or informational masking in the two-masker conditions, and thus is essentially useless.The older listeners perform worse overall than any of the younger listeners, and thus, there is no point in the direct comparisons that are made between younger and older listeners.Nothing can really be concluded about why the older listeners do poorly, since they are worse than any of the control groups.The fact that the change in performance with inter-target delay is smaller for the older listners is meaningless, since this may be a floor effect.Similarly, the fact that changes in performance with inter-target delay are smaller in the younger listener group with the best signal-to-noise ratio than for the other groups is likely due to ceiling effects--there is no reason to expect equal changes at all performance levels(psychometric functions are sigmoidal, in general, not linear).This same problem makes the target-only control experiment particularly pointless.Given that all of the results are taken at different points on the psychometric functions and that the psychometric functions are nonlinear, the ANOVA analyses presented seem pointless to this reviewer--they compare apples and oranes.Moreover, the statistical analyses are presented **instead of** any description of what is happening and what it might mean.I would rather have some help understanding what you expected to see and why instead of a lot of statistical analyses that don't lend any insight into what was found.Throughout the manuscript, there is no attempt to determine what is due to energetic and what is due to informational masking.The noise control condition probably *only* gives energetic masking, but the amount of energetic masking it produces is different from that of the the other speech conditions.Thus, there is no way to conclude anything about how IM and EM contribute in the speech conditions as a function of inter-target delay, or what the inter-target delay is really doing.The experiment in which listeners were asked to judge the spatial quality of the different conditions might have been important in helping to interpret what was happening, but was never developed.What is shown is actually quite confusing.The older listeners may have a slightly different pattern of spatial perception as a function of inter-target delay, but this is never fully explored.No hypotheses are given to describe how these differences are likely to impact speech understanding in the speech intelligibility task.IF the results are reliable and repeatable enough to be meaningful(which is suspect, given the small number of subjects), what do you expect to happen for older listeners for whom the sounds are MORE DIFFUSE AT ZERO DELAY than for younger listeners? Wouldn't that suggest that they should have more difficulty in understanding the target compared to young listeners at these short delays? But they are like the younger listeners at the longest delays, hearing two targets.Is that good or bad? If hearing two separate targets(at the locations of the maskers)is expected to make the task harder, why aren't the older listeners BETTER than the younger listeners at the delays of 16 and 32? There is no discussion of these points to help interpret any of this.The paper ends with conclusions that are not linked to any of the results shown.How can one assert that the “listeners perceive two spatially separated images of the target and can selectively focus their attention to only one of the images(usually the leading one)”(p.29)from the data presented? This one sentence contains so many assumptions, it is indefensible.All that was measured is intelligibility.On p.31, the authors write “The results suggest a faster decay of temporal storage of the fine details of speech sound(sic)in older adults than in younger adults.” The only thing that is shown is that the older listeners have more difficulty in general, are near the performance floor, and show less dependence on the inter-target delay.There are too many leaps to go from this to asserting that there are differences in “temporal storage of the fine details.”
There are numerous typos(names misspelled, grammar issues)throughout;however, the manuscript needs to be completely rewritten before it is in an acceptable form for JASA, so I will not comment on that here.In summary, while the results might be of interest if presented in a more accessible way, with clearer justification for the experimental design and explicit hypotheses for what should happen in the different conditions, this could be salvaged into an acceptable paper.In its current form, it is not appropriate for JASA.
第四篇:英文论文审稿意见
This paper addresses an important and interesting problem-automatically identifying adult accounts on Sina Weibo.The authors propose two sets of behavior indicators for adult groups and accounts, and find that adult groups and accounts have different behavioral distributions with non-adult groups and accounts.Then a novel relation-based model, which considers the inter-relationships among groups, individual accounts and message sources, is applied to identify adult accounts.The experimental results show that compared with state-of-the-art methods, the proposed method can improve the performance of adult account identification on Sina Weibo.Overall, the article is well organized and its presentation is good.However, some minor issues still need to be improved:(1)The authors should summarize the main contributions of this paper in Section 1.(2)In Section 4.2, the authors mentioned that “A group will attain a value very close to on GACS if all its accounts have entirely copied their own texts, images or contact information”.However, according to Equation 8, contact information is not considered when computing GACS.(3)In Algorithm 1 on Pg.17, it seems that “t=t+1” should be added after line 6.(4)I suggest that the limitation of this work should be discussed in Section 9.(5)There are a few typos and grammar errors in this paper.
第五篇:关爱留守儿童调研文章(审稿)
xx镇关爱留守儿童的对策与思考
xx镇位于国家级贫困县屏山县的中部,交通闭塞,经济落后,群众大多外出务工,劳动力大量转移,同时留守儿童数量也不断增多,尤其是该镇在2017年初关闭了1134家土纸厂后,该镇农村留守儿童的看护和教育问题日益凸显。为了帮助留守儿童健康成长,该镇以“让孩子健康成长、让家长安心创业”为目的进行高位统筹,动员各部门齐抓共管,组织社会力量积极参与,多形式、全方位进一步做好留守儿童关心关爱和教育管理工作并获得干部群众好评。
一、凝聚共识,齐抓共管力量足
该镇党委、政府高度重视留守儿童的关爱工作,主要是通过强化领导、凝聚共识,统筹各方力量齐抓共管,共同做好留守儿童关爱工作。
(一)强化领导,高位统筹。该镇党委成立了关爱留守儿童工作领导小组及办公室,坚持每季度研究一次关爱留守儿童工作,重点研究解决镇关爱留守儿童力量充实、办公经费保障、阵地建设等关键性问题。同时,镇党政领导多次到村社区、中小学督促工作,现场解决办公运行保障、留守儿童之家建设等实际困难和问题。
(二)部门协同,齐抓共管。一是建立联席会议制度。镇民政办牵头,关工委、群团等各单位各司其职,每月定期召开一次联席会议,定期对关爱留守儿童工作进行总结交流,共同解决出现的问题,安排布置下阶段工作。二是充分发挥关工委优势。发挥督促检查整合力量的威望优势,组织动员“五老”志愿者开展关爱服务和互助活动,协同政府做好关爱工作。三是发挥学校主导作用。充分发挥学校在关爱留守儿童工作中的主阵地作用,学校成立由校长任组长的关爱留守儿童工作领导小组及办公室,切实加强对留守儿童工作的教育引导和服务管理,保证各项工作落实到位。
(三)广泛动员社会力量。搭建各类平台吸纳志愿者、爱心人士、热心企业等社会力量,共同投入关爱留守儿童事业。该镇组建了党员志愿队、青年志愿队、教师志愿队、“五老”志愿队、妈妈志愿队等组织广泛参与留守儿童关爱。
二、坚持问题导向,关爱行动突出实效
该镇结合留守儿童群体特点,以急留守儿童所需为出发点,以解决实际问题为落脚点,扎实做好留守儿童关爱工作。
(一)建立健全帮扶机制。根据留守儿童身心需要,建立起帮扶工作长效机制。一是建立留守儿童基础信息制度。以学校和村(社区)为单位对留守儿童进行排查统计,建立信息台账和成长记录卡,掌握留守儿童动态信息,完善留守儿童档案工作,对留守儿童进行跟踪管理。目前每个村级均建立了留守儿童专门的电子档案并规范管理。二是建立“大手拉小手”爱心帮扶制度。我镇根据留守儿童的个体情况,实施精准一对一结对、学生内部互助结对。截至目前,全镇在职干部和退休老干部、老教师、老党员与留守儿童结成帮扶对子232个,帮助解决留守儿童学习、生活、心理等方面问题。三是建立留守儿童亲情联系制度。全镇中小学均建立起留守儿童与父母亲情视频平台,让留守儿童在课间、休息时、双休日与父母面对面视频互通情况、培养情感。今年以来,视频电话通话179人次,留守儿童给家长写信30封。四是建立留守儿童心理咨询制度。安排有经验的老师在心里辅导室,对这些父母没在身边的孩子进行心理健康与心理疏通,让他们的心理健康快乐。截止目前,今年老师开展心理辅导有记载的是60人次。五是建立留守儿童阳光午餐和寄宿制度。优先安排留守儿童在校餐饮住宿,并从各方面进行关照。鼓励他们自己动手洗衣洗碗,做力所能及的事。培养他们从小热爱劳动的品质和独立生活能力。今年全校留守儿童全部在校午餐,寄宿学生25名中就有留守儿童23名。
(二)联合行动,凝聚关怀暖人心。我镇始终立足于引领留守儿童树立正确的人生观、价值观、世界观,突出开展“四个行动”:一是励志行动。我镇结合党代会精神深入宣传工作,先后已开展“党史、国史直通车”“我讲红色故事”等主题教育20场次,举办青少年心理健康及德育专题讲座12场次,公安、司法部门联合开展法治教育21场,参与青少年2200人次,引导青少年树立爱党、爱国、爱家的处事观念和遵纪守法、勤奋好学、自强拼搏的行为意识。二是暖心行动。我镇关工委、扶贫办、民政办、团委共同与学校建立暖心行动联席机制,主动对接各类惠民政策的落地落实,协同组织栋梁工程、扶贫一日捐等各类扶助活动。今年,我镇231名留守儿童及时享受了捐赠、救助等政策。三是帮教行动。我们坚持将残疾、留守、问题青少年作为关心下一代工作的重点来抓,全面动员组织镇村“五老”力量与其结成对子,成为“代理爷爷”,重点加强对其思想引导、课业辅导、心理疏导等方面的教育和关怀。四是示范行动。全镇6个重点贫困村会同学生所在学校,组织开展评选“优秀留守儿童”评选活动,大张旗鼓地表扬12名勤奋好学、自强不息的青少年,进一步树立典范,弘扬正气,进一步扩大优秀留守儿童榜样示范,激励更多的留守儿童自强不息。
(三)创新载体,丰富内涵,汇聚正能量。全镇创新开展各类活动,以活动为载体,强化关爱氛围,增加关爱活力。一是“关爱留守儿童”主题队会活动。学校每学期确立一个“关爱留守儿童”主题,各中队辅导老师针对本班留守儿童情况,开展对留守儿童关心、关爱主题队会,让留守儿童充满对学习和生活信心。二是开展法治宣传教育活动。通过办法治宣传栏、模拟法庭等进行谱法教育,还与镇派出所、司法所、法庭联系,聘请相关人员来校进行法制宣讲,让孩子们远离毒品,远离赌博,远离网吧等,让留守儿童学法守法,做遵纪守法的好少年。由于这一活动开展得好,该镇中心校校长彭亮受到中国关工委表彰,顾秀连同志亲切握手接见。三是开展丰富多彩的文化、艺术、体育校本课程活动。组织学生参加寓教于乐的校本课程,把“礼”文化教育、感恩教育、生存救援教育等作为必修课,要求所有班级每月必须开设一次。学校有鼓号队、腰鼓队、舞龙队、舞蹈队、合唱团、课本剧、朗诵与主持、美术社、书法社、手工制作社、读书沙龙、武术队、篮球队、乒乓球队14个社团组织,每名学生可以参加1个社团,留守儿童(住校生)可以参加2个社团活动。这些活动使他们获得许多在课堂上学不到的知识、技能,培养了他们的兴趣爱好,受到孩子们的普遍喜爱。四是开展社会教育实践活动。组织留守儿童“做环保小卫士”上八仙山风景区检垃圾,亲近大自然,热爱大自然;去敬老院看望慰问老爷爷、老奶奶,为他们做好事。还组织开展春游、秋游活动。在暑假期间连续三年与返乡大学生联合组织了“小候鸟”夏令营活动。在校内,组织住校学生开展“学做饭”活动。在老师的指导下,许多留守儿童学会了包饺子抄手、洗菜炒菜、自做火锅等简单的饮食,使他们从小学会自理,尽量做到父母没在身边也能自己照顾好自己。在近两年的市县美德少年评选中,该校留守儿童金霜、自世容、余孟洋等被评为“自强少年”。五是开展爱心关爱帮扶活动。注重解决留守儿童困难,学校在留守儿童生日期间,由少先队大队部组织师生为他们过集体生日,大家为他们献上“祝你生日快乐”歌,送上自己制作的小贺卡或小礼物,使他们感受到集体的温暖和关怀。
三、广泛动员,汇聚力量早奔康
该镇始终将全面动员、持续动员做好关心留守儿童作为事关全局和未来战略任务来抓,具体做好“四个动员”:一是动员社企帮扶。积极动员社会企业参与到关心留守儿童工作中。通过帮扶平台为企业和留守儿童搭建桥梁,截至目前,我镇3家企业与23名青少年已建起帮扶对子。今年企业已参加募捐活动3次、捐资3.2万元,资助学生16名。在今年的xx古镇文化节开幕式上,举行了东煌新城置业公司捐助13名寒门学子2.6万元助学金的仪式,得到了较高社会评价。二是动员志愿帮扶。目前,我镇已建立起青年志愿者、党员志愿者、“五老志愿者”等5支帮扶志愿队,今年已组织开展道德、法治、等宣传教育活动12场次,组织捐款捐物帮助青少年45名。三是动员五老帮扶。我镇组织各村“五老人员”对“五失青少年”进行一对一帮扶,已帮扶“五失青少年”16名、已矫正问题少年2名。同时,17名“五老”主动参与加入义务网吧监督员行动中,实时监督网吧4个,劝阻未成年人进网吧800多人次,其中留守儿童300多人次,帮助网瘾青少年40多人。四是动员先进帮扶。我镇每年开展“关爱青少年先进单位和个人”评比活动,对积极参与关心下一代工作,特别是留守儿童的企业和个人给予肯定和精神鼓励。同时,建立关心下一代工作“明星榜”,对上榜的企业及个人在多方面给予优先考虑。如新农村在外企业家阳元洪长期资助4名在校大学生,和10余名留守儿童,在镇党委的推荐下成为本届县政协委员。
四、建强关爱阵地、全面营造关爱氛围
(一)创建关爱阵地,筑牢关爱根基。留守儿童关爱中心是关爱留守儿童的重要阵地。党委、政府在xx镇中心校依托学校公共服务设施,高标准创建创建为留守儿童关爱中心。配有多媒体教学设备、专用通话电脑、各种玩具、自制手工品等,学校还建立了心理咨询室、科教室等功能室,为留守儿童提供丰富的活动内容。除留守儿童关爱中心之外,全镇各村(社区)均依托村党群服务中心建立起留守儿童之家,购置了必备的用品,为留守儿童提供活动场所。
(二)强化资金保障,确保关爱实效。加大关爱留守儿童的资金投入。一是用好“两免一补”政策。对留守儿童优先实行学杂费、书本费减免和生活费补助。二是列入重点资助。对于上级机关和领导干部捐助,以及各种慈善机构和团体的捐赠,优先用于留守儿童。三是整合各方资金投入。统筹好妇联、团委、工会等组织对留守儿童资金的投入,以解决留守儿童帮扶资金缺口的困难。
(三)着力强化宣传,营造关爱氛围。坚持将关心下一代的宣传工作与全镇党建扶贫、党风廉政、环境保护、安全生产等工作同安排、同部署、同宣传、同督促、同考核。截至目前,我镇通过先后张贴宣传标语21条(幅),中小学利用宣传栏、讲座等方式开展未成人保护宣传工作32次,村社区通过“农民夜校”、村民院坝会等形式宣传留守儿童关爱、弱势群体保护工作66次。在全社会形成了共同关爱留守儿童的浓厚氛围。
