Your articulate might help listeners shape your approximate height without seeing you, according to a new study. Researchers had men and women hear to recordings of identical sentences read by men and women of different heights. The listeners were asked to title the speakers from tallest to shortest.

The results showed that the listeners were about 62 percent spot on in identifying the taller speakers. This rate is much higher than what can be achieved by chance alone, according to the study, which is scheduled for display Tuesday at an Acoustical Society of America meeting in San Francisco. The findings could substantiate useful in solving crimes, the researchers noted.
