Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Finger Braille is one of the communication methods for the deaf blind. We have already found the durational rules (Prosody Rules) in Finger Braille and its effectiveness by listening experiments. But the ratio of duration of each Braille code to the duration between the code and the next code is not clear m the rules and it is unknown whether the ratio is common to a skilled person and an unskilled person. In this paper, we investigate which ratio among 30%, 50% and 70% is most suitable for the skilled or the unskilled. As the results, the ratio 50% is most suitable for both of them, but it is suggested that the skilled prefer lower ratio and the unskilled prefer higher ratio.
