Quantification in Ordinary Language and Proof Theory

open access: yesPhilosophia Scientiæ, 2016
This paper gives an overview of the common approach to quantification and generalised quantification in formal linguistics and philosophy of language. We point out how this usual general framework represents a departure from empirical linguistic data. We

Lexical Stress and Linguistic Predictability Influence Proofreading Behavior [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2016
There is extensive evidence that the segmental (i.e., phonemic) layer of phonology is routinely activated during reading, but little is known about whether phonological activation extends beyond phonemes to subsegmental layers (which include articulatory information, such as voicing) and suprasegmental layers (which include prosodic information, such ...

Big data mining and comparative analyses across lexica on the relationship between syllable complexity and word stress

open access: yesLangue(s) & Parole, 2023
For about four decades, phonological theories have claimed that word stress assignment depends on the word’s syllabic structure complexity in relation to syllabic position. This study analyzes the syllabic structure implications for word stress in three

Spectral balance as a cue in the perception of linguistic stress

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1997
In this study, the claim that intensity, as an acoustic operationalization of loudness, is a weak cue in the perception of linguistic stress is reconsidered. This claim is based on perception experiments in which loudness was varied in a naive way: All parts of the spectrum were amplified uniformly, i.e., loudness was implemented as intensity or gain ...

Spectral balance as an acoustic correlate of linguistic stress

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1996
Although intensity has been reported as a reliable acoustical correlate of stress, it is generally considered a weak cue in the perception of linguistic stress. In natural speech stressed syllables are produced with more vocal effort. It is known that, if a speaker produces more vocal effort, higher frequencies increase more than lower frequencies.

Acoustic correlates of linguistic stress and accent in Dutch and American English [PDF]

open access: yesProceeding of Fourth International Conference on Spoken Language Processing. ICSLP '96, 1996
In the literature the same acoustic correlates of stress and accent have been established for Dutch and English, i.e. F0 movement, duration, intensity and vowel quality. A.M.C. Sluijter and V.J. Van Heuven (1996) showed that F0 movement and overall intensity in Dutch differentiate only between accented and non-accented syllables, rather than between ...

A matter of emphasis: Linguistic stress habits modulate serial recall [PDF]

open access: yesMemory & Cognition, 2014
Models of short-term memory for sequential information rely on item-level, feature-based descriptions to account for errors in serial recall. Transposition errors within alternating similar/dissimilar letter sequences derive from interactions between overlapping features.
