This study examines the phonetic properties of lexical stress in English produced by Persian speakers learning English as a foreign language. The four most reliable phonetic correlates of English lexical stress, namely fundamental frequency, duration, intensity, and vowel quality were measured across Persian speakers’ production of the stressed and unstressed syllables of five English disyllabi...

It has been reported that non-articulatory visual cues to prosody tend to align with auditory cues, emphasizing auditory events that are in close alignment (visual alignment hypothesis). We investigated the temporal relationship between visual and auditory prosodic cues in a large corpus of utterances to determine the extent to which non-articulatory visual prosodic cues align with auditory one...

Variation in pitch, amplitude and rhythm adds crucial paralinguistic information to human speech. Such prosodic cues can reveal information about the meaning or emphasis of a sentence or the emotional state of the speaker. To examine the hypothesis that sensitivity to prosodic cues is language independent and not human specific, we tested prosody perception in a controlled experiment with zebra...

This study investigated the role of phrase-level prosodic boundary information in word segmentation in Korean with two word-spotting experiments. In experiment 1, it was found that intonational cues alone helped listeners with lexical segmentation. Listeners paid more attention to local intonational cues (...H#L...) across the prosodic boundary than the intonational information within a prosodi...

During natural speech perception, listeners rely on a wide range of cues to support comprehension, from semantic context to prosodic information. There is a general consensus that prosody plays a role in syntactic parsing, but most studies focusing on ambiguous relative clauses (RC) show that prosodic cues, alone, are insufficient to reverse the preferred interpretation of sentence. These findi...

We investigate perceptual cues in human-human dialogue management related to signalling the change of speaker and the interlocutor’s wish to backchannel or contribute with propositional content. We are interested primarily in the relevance of prosodic cues in relation to textual ones, and their crosslinguistic validity by comparing unrelated languages Slovak and Argentine Spanish. Results of a ...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study is to assess the use of prosodic and contextual cues to focus by prelingually deaf adolescent users of cochlear implants (CIs) when identifying target phonemes. We predict that CI users will have slower reaction times to target phonemes compared with a group of normally-hearing (NH) peers. We also predict that reaction times will be faster when both prosodic...
