On Vowel Height and Consonantal Voicing Effects: Data from Italian

Phonetica, 2002
AbstractThis paper reports an acoustic study of CV sequences in Italian (where C is /b, d, g, p, t, k/ and V is one of the seven Italian vowels in stressed position). It explores the effects of vowel height, consonantal voicing, and place of articulation on a number of acoustic attributes of vowels (duration, f₀, F<sub>1</sub>), and on the ...

Vowel Height Allophony and Dorsal Place Contrasts in Cochabamba Quechua

Phonetica, 2016
AbstractThis paper reports on the results of two studies investigating the role of allophony in cueing phonemic contrasts. In Cochabamba Quechua, the uvularvelar place distinction is often cued by additional differences in the height of the surrounding vowels.

Asymmetries in the Processing of Vowel Height

Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2012
PurposeSpeech perception can be described as the transformation of continuous acoustic information into discrete memory representations. Therefore, research on neural representations of speech sounds is particularly important for a better understanding of this transformation.

Articulation of vowel height in Taiwanese Vowels: An EMA study

Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2015
Whalen et al.’s (2010) ultrasound study has suggested that constriction degree “may be the best descriptor for height” in American English front vowels {i, ɪ, e, ɛ}. The present study took a further step, investigating the case of height and backness distinction in Taiwanese front and back vowels.

Vowel fundamental frequency and tongue height

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1977
This research was designed to substantiate the results of Ohala [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 60, S44(A) (1976)] which supported the “tongue-pull” hypothesis of intrinsic vowel pitch. Our goal was explanation of the observation that vowels with high tongue position have higher F0 than do vowels with low tongue position. It has been suggested that the anatomical

Perception of height differences in vowels

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1983
Vowels contrasting in the phonetic feature of height or openness are differentiated primarily by changes in the frequency of the first formant. Several hypotheses have been proposed to account for the perception of these differences. Mushnikov and Chistovich [Sov. Phys. Acoust. 19, 250–254 (1973)] argue that the frequency of the most prominent harmonic
