Low frequency groans indicate larger and more dominant fallow deer (Dama dama) males. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Models of honest advertisement predict that sexually selected calls should signal male quality. In most vertebrates, high quality males have larger body sizes that determine higher social status and in turn higher reproductive success ...

MIGRANTS’ SPEECH: FORMANT DESCRIPTION
The purpose of the study was to identify acoustic parameters of the vocable speech of migrants with the help of a sound analyzer PRAAT based on a speaker’s reference utterance that included all vowels of the Russian language. Men from different countries

Acoustic Measures Capture Speech Dysfunction in Spinocerebellar Ataxia. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCA) are hereditary cerebellar degenerative disorders with a common feature of dysarthria, involving impaired phonatory and articulatory control of speech, thereby affecting social communication. In this study, we investigated whether acoustic measures could objectively measure speech dysfunction and identify

KhoramAbadi Luri Monophthongs: An Acoustic Study [PDF]
This study investigated the acoustic parameters of the fundamental frequency, first and second formant frequencies, duration and intensity in KhoramAbadi Luri vowels. 10 participants (5 male, 5 female) produced 1620 tokens, including /ɑ،y،ø،o،u،ə،a،e،ʏ،ɪ،

Formant Transitions of Turkish Vowels [PDF]
Acoustic correlates of consonantal place of articulation are numerous and varied. Burst information, onset spectra, and formant transition motion have all been implicated as the significant cues for consonant place of articulation within each labial ...

The Study of Vowel Space and Formant Structure in Mazani Language
Objective: One of the parameters showing the correct phonetic and phonological development is the correct and clear articulation of vowels is achieved by changing the shape of vocal cords through altering the height and position of the tongue and the ...

Unconscious and Distinctive Control of Vocal Pitch and Timbre During Altered Auditory Feedback
Vocal control plays a critical role in smooth social communication. Speakers constantly monitor auditory feedback (AF) and make adjustments when their voices deviate from their intentions.

Formant onsets and formant transitions as developmental cues to vowel perception [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to determine whether children give more perceptual weight than do adults to dynamic spectral cues versus static cues. Listeners were 10 children between the ages of 3;8 and 4;1 (mean 3;11) and ten adults between the ages of 23;10 and 32;0 (mean 25;11).

Formant frequencies are the positions of the local maxima of the power spectral envelope of a sound signal. They arise from acoustic resonances of the vocal tract air column, and they provide substantial information about both consonants and vowels. In running speech, formants are crucial in signaling the movements with respect to place of articulation.
