The online effect of clash is durational lengthening, not prominence shift: Evidence from Italian
2022, Journal of PhoneticsCitation Excerpt :Under this account, whenever two grid marks of a certain level are too close to each other, the first one is deleted, altering the prominence pattern of the word (Fig. 1c). This reformulation was meant to align theoretical accounts with the lack of experimental evidence compatible with stress shift (Cooper & Eady, 1986; Farnetani & Kori, 1983; Horne, 1990). Within the deletion account, some scholars have hypothesized that a clash arises not from adjacency of stressed syllables (or strong grid marks), but from the adjacency of pitch accents, that is, prominent events at the phrasal rather than at the word level (Beckman & Edwards, 1994; Bolinger, 1986; Shattuck-Hufnagel et al., 1994).
In defense of stylistic diversity in speech research
2015, Journal of PhoneticsCitation Excerpt :Nonsense words or speech-like utterances such as iterative ‘dadada’ productions (e.g., Andreeva, Barry, & Steiner, 2007; Barry, Andreeva, & Steiner, 2007). Carefully designed sentences varying in one word or stress position, often used to investigate prosodic focus or strategies of prominence annotation (to name very few: Arnold, Möbius, & Wagner, 2011; Arnold, Wagner, & Möbius, 2011; Cho & Keating, 2009; Cooper & Eady, 1986; Heldner & Strangert, 2001; Jensen & Tøndering, 2005; Samlowski, Möbius, & Wagner, 2014; Sluijter & van Heuven, 1996). Balanced corpora based on read aloud, isolated, meaningful sentences as well as stories (Fant & Kruckenberg, 1989; Heuft, 1999; Kochanski et al., 2005; Portele & Heuft, 1997; Streefkerk, 2002; Tamburini & Caini, 2005).
The relevance of rhythmical alternation in language processing: An ERP study on English compounds
2014, Brain and LanguageCitation Excerpt :However, the existing results to date are not fully conclusive. Different studies claimed that there is no acoustic evidence for a real shift of prominence within potential stress shift items (e.g., Cooper & Eady, 1986; Grabe & Warren, 1995; Vogel, Bunnell, & Hoskins, 1995). However, listeners declare to perceive proper stress shifts regularly, albeit only when presented in a shift-triggering context (e.g., ́TV in TV soaps but T́V when presented in isolation; Grabe & Warren, 1995).
What Is Musical Prosody?
2006, Psychology of Learning and Motivation - Advances in Research and TheoryCitation Excerpt :Languages of the world do not display the same degree of regularity in production or perception. Interstress intervals tend to vary as a function of the material within the interval, although evidence of a tendency toward isochrony is seen in some studies when principle determinants of duration (sentential context, lexical content, etc.) are controlled for (Cooper & Eady, 1986; Kelly & Bock, 1988). Differences between speech and music in their degree of temporal regularity raise the possibility that prosodic variation may be constrained differently.
