Contextual cues about reciprocity impact ratings of smile sincerity
Cognition and Emotion, 2022Research has shown that context influences how sincere a smile appears to observers. That said, most studies on this topic have focused exclusively on situational cues (e.g. smiling while at a party versus smiling during a job interview) and few have examined other elements of context. One important element concerns any knowledge an observer might have

Tonal cues to prosodic structure in rate-dependent speech perception
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2021This study explores how listeners integrate tonal cues to prosodic structure with their perception of local speech rate and consequent interpretation of durational cues. In three experiments, we manipulate the pitch and duration of speech segments immediately preceding a target sound along a vowel duration continuum (cueing coda stop voicing), testing ...

Perceiving Southernness: Vowel categories and acoustic cues in Southernness ratings
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2020Southern U.S. speech has been the focus of much sociophonetic work. In terms of vowel patterns, Southern speech is often characterized by the Southern Vowel Shift (SVS, involving shifts in /e/, /ɛ/, and /aɪ/), back vowel fronting, and changes in glide dynamics.

Prosodic cues for rated politeness in Japanese speech
Speech Communication, 2000Abstract In order to examine potential acoustic cues for politeness in Japanese speech, F0 and temporal aspects of polite and casual utterances of two question sentences spoken by 6 male native speakers were acoustically analysed. The analysis showed that F0 movement of the final part of utterances and speech rate of utterance were consistently ...

Rate control for videophone using local perceptual cues
IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology, 2005We present a method for extracting local visual perceptual cues and its application for rate control of videophone, in order to ensure the scarce bits to be assigned for maximum perceptual coding quality. The optimum quantization step is determined with the rate-distortion model considering the local perceptual cues in the visual signal. For extraction

Contribution of acoustic cues to prominence ratings for four Mandarin vowels
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2023The acoustic cues for prosodic prominence have been explored extensively, but one open question is to what extent they differ by context. This study investigates the extent to which vowel type affects how acoustic cues are related to prominence ratings provided in a corpus of spoken Mandarin.

A subtle threat cue, heart rate variability, and cognitive performance
Psychophysiology, 2011AbstractThis research was designed to extend the literature on heart rate variability (HRV) in cognitive performance contexts by examining whether a subtle threat cue (the color red) in a test environment influences HRV reactivity and whether HRV reactivity is associated with change in cognitive performance.

Inhibition from part-list cues and rate of recall.
Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1977Subjects recalled words from studied lists for 10 min. in a free-recall situation or in the presence of other list or extralist words. The presence of both types of context words reduced recall relative to free recall, but list-word context had a greater inhibiting effect than extralist word context, and only the list-word context produced a lower rate

Menstrual cycle influences on cue-induced smoking cravings and heart rate variability
Behavioural Pharmacology, 2023Women experience greater difficulties in quitting smoking than men, though the hormonal factors contributing to this sex difference remain to be clarified. The current study aimed to examine menstrual cycle effects on smoking cue-induced cravings as well as examine dynamic reproductive hormone change as a potential mediator underlying any cycle effects
