FACTORIAL DESIGN: when you have multiple factors (=independent variables) each with discrete levels, the exeriment should _____
contain all possible combinations of the levels across all factors. aka FACTORIAL DESIGN
dependent variables. acoustic properties of lexical stress= in general a stressed syllable is associated with
higher pitch (greater f0), longer duration and greater intensity.
syntagmatic vs paradigmatic analysis: syntagmatic relation
relation between the target of analysis and the surrounding context
and positioning PERmit(noun) towards each other within the word.
syntagmatic vs paradigmatic analysis: paradigmatic
relation between the target of analysis and its alternatives
and substitution. perMIT (verb) toards the PERmit (noun_ .
syntagmatic analysis within words comparison:pitch
pitch. the greater value associated with the stressed syllable. PERmit
syntagmatic analysis within-words comparison:duration
duration. the longer duration with the unstressed syllable (post focal?). perMIT
syntagmatic analysis within-words comparison:intensity
intensity, the largest intensity on the first, focal syllable. the stressed syllable PERmit
syntagmatic observations: in statements. the stressed syllable had a higher ____ and a greater ____n
higher pitch and greater intensity
the syntagmatic obervations : in statments the second syllange was _____than the first syllable, regardless of the ____assignment
the second syllable was longer than the first syllable, regardless of the stress assignment.
syntagmatic observations: in questions, the second syllable had a _______ ,________, ______, regardless of the stress asignment.
the second syllable had a higher pitch, a greater intensity, and a longer duration, regardless of the stress assignment.
synagmatic observations in the deaccented position the first syllable had a slightly ____
higher pitch regardless of stress assignment
syntagmatic observations, in deaccented position the second syllable had a
longer duration, regardless of the stress assignment
syntagmatic observations, in deaccented position the stressed syllable had a greater intensity in the
verb, but not in the noun
there is no reliable acoustic property that indicates lexical stress across conditions
true
only in _____ pitch and intensity can be used for identigying lexical stresss.
only in__________ citation form_________.
paradigmatic analysis: between-words comparison:pitch
higher pitch is on the stressed syllable in the noun and and verb
paradigmatic analysis: between-words comparison:duration
higher duration is on the unstressed in the noun and the verb
paradigmatic analysis: between-words comparison: duration
higher duration on the unstressed syllable in the noun and the stressed syllable in the verb
paradigmatic analysis: between-words comparison: intensity
higher intensity on the stressed syllable in the noun PERmit and second syllable unstressed syllable on the verb perMIT
paradigmatic observations (across words) in citation form, the stressed syllable had a higher _ anda longer _
the stressed syllable had a higher pitch and a longer duration
paradigmatic observations (across words), in citation form, the stressed syllable had a greater ___ when it was the first syllable but not when it was the second one.
the stressed syllable greater intensity in the first syllable but not the second one.
paradigmatic observations in questions, the stressed syllable had a longer_
longer duration
radigmatic observations in questions, the syllable in the noun had a higher ____ and a greater ____ than in the verb, regardless of the stress assignment.
the syllable in the noun had a higher PITCH and a greater INTENSITY than the verb, regardless of the stress assignment.
paradigmatic observations in deaccented position, the stressed syllable had a longer___
the stressed syllable had a longer duration.
paradigmatic observations, in deaccented position the difference in pitch was___
marginal
paradigmatic observations, in deaccented position, the stressed syllable hada greater ____ in the noun but not in the verb.
the stressed syllable had a greater intensity in the noun, but not in the verb
paradigmatic observations: duration:
is a reliable acoustic property that indicates lexical stress across conditions.
syntagmatic and paradigmatic comparisons often give ____results
give the same results
a stressed syllable is generally _____ than the unstressed version of itself as well as its neighboring syllables.
a stressed syllable is generally more prominent than the unstressed version of itself as well as its neighboring syllables.
there is a tendancy that sounds relevant to lexical meaning require
paradigmatic
there is a tendency that sounds relevant to sentntial intonation require
syntagmatic analysis
levels of adequacy
- observational 2. descriptive 3. explanatory adequacy
observational adequacy
all data points accurately numbers appropriately keep consistent 2 digits pay close attention to the unit. segmentation criteria. be consistant.
descriptive adequacy
analysis provides significant generalizations of the observed data.
explanatory adeqacy
analysis provides a principled basis for the choice between competing descriptions. the analysis has predictive power.
reliable pitch track
pitch track smooth for a continuous pitch track, use a sonorant sounds.
