A New View of Language Development: The Acquisition of Lexical Tone.
Child Development, 2016Research in first language development draws disproportionately from nontone languages. Such research is often presumed to reveal developmental universals in spite of the fact that most languages are tone languages.

Some influences of subjective tones in monaural tone−on−tone masking
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1975The influences of subjective phenomena upon measurements of monaural tone−on−tone masking not only effects interpretations of sensitivity changes but may yield information about the underlying distortion mechanisms. The paradigm analyzed here involves simultaneous presentation of two pure tones: the masker (ωr) at fixed amplitude (α) and an interrupted

It is possible to choose the starting phase of a pure tone in a way that minimizes the onset noise when the tone is turned on abruptly. A spectral model shows that when the tone has a low frequency, minimum onset noise is expected for a starting phase of zero (turning on a sine tone) but when the tone has a high frequency, minimum onset noise is ...

Recent research finds that investors, broadly defined, react to the linguistic tone of quarterly earnings conference calls; there is a positive relation between firms' stock returns and call tone (a measure of “sentiment” related word tabulations ...

Masking of tone by tone as a function of duration
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1975Consideration of a proposed electrical model of monaural detection leads to the suggestion that subjects listening to long-duration signals may respond on the basis of amplitude peaks. To eliminate such peaks, a 500-Hz tone was employed as both masker and signal.

The present study examined the effects of leaders' mood on (a) the mood of individual group members, (b) the affective tone of groups, and (c) 3 group processes: coordination, effort expenditure, and task strategy. On the basis of a mood contagion model,

Tone raising and tone lowering in Bafut
Journal of African Languages and Linguistics, 2011While a lot has been said about H tone lowering after a L tone in Bafut, L tone raising before a non-L tone remains a less studied phenomenon. 2 This paper seeks to describe these two tone phenomena in the language, which result from two phonologically contrastive pitch levels.

The temporal course of simultaneous tone-on-tone masking
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1985Threshold for a 20-ms, 1-kHz signal was measured as a function of its temporal position within a longer duration gated masker; masker frequencies were below, at, and above 1 kHz. For a masker frequency above the signal frequency, there is a sizable temporal effect: As the onset of the signal is delayed, threshold decreases rapidly but then increases ...
