Abstract
This paper reviews the various applications of the concepts of integration and segregation in speech perception research. These applications are illustrated with selected examples from the literature. After laying out some conceptual issues and basic assumptions, the review discusses auditory temporal and spectral integration, integration of phonetic information in its various forms, auditory temporal, spatial, and spectral segregation, segregation of linguistic from paralinguistic information, and segregation of intertwined linguistic information. It is concluded that the concepts of integration and segregation are necessary ingredients of a theory of speech perception.
