Medium-shifting and intraspeaker variation in conversational interviews
AbstractWe investigate the impact of medium of communication (in-person versus video) on intraspeaker variation in conversation—a process we refer to asmedium-shifting. To quantify the effects of medium-shifting and understand its possible motivations, we analyze three variables that show intraspeaker effects of “clear” or “careful” speech ...

Age vectors vs. axes of intraspeaker variation for vowel formants in North American and Scottish English [PDF]
We examine vowel formant variation in several natural speech corpora of North American and United Kingdom English. Labov (1994) has suggested that a speaker’s tokens of a particular vowel will be aligned along an axis coinciding with the direction that vowel is shifting diachronically in a given community. We compare the direction of change in apparent

Age Vectors vs. Axes of Intraspeaker Variation in Vowel Formants Measured Automatically From Several English Speech Corpora [PDF]
To test the hypothesis that intraspeaker variation in vowel formants is related to the direction of diachronic change, we compare the direction of change in apparent time with the axis of intraspeaker variation in F1 and F2 for vowel phonemes in several\ud corpora of North American and Scottish English.\ud These vowels were measured automatically with ...
