44 The Iambic – Trochaic Law Brett
In the development of metrical stress theory, several influential approaches (Hayes 1985, 1987, 1995; McCarthy and Prince 1986; Prince 1990) have employed the Iambic– Trochaic Law (ITL) to provide extralinguistic grounding for an account of the differences between iambic and trochaic stress systems (see also chapter 39: stress: phonotactic and phonetic evidence; chapter 40: the foot; chapter 41...
متن کاملPerception of rhythmic grouping: testing the iambic/trochaic law.
This study was designed to test the iambic/trochaic law, which claims that elements contrasting in duration naturally form rhythmic groupings with final prominence, whereas elements contrasting in intensity form groupings with initial prominence. It was also designed to evaluate whether the iambic/trochaic law describes general auditory biases, or whether rhythmic grouping is speech or language...
متن کاملHow modality specific is the iambic-trochaic law? Evidence from vision.
The iambic-trochaic law has been proposed to account for the grouping of auditory stimuli: Sequences of sounds that differ only in duration are grouped as iambs (i.e., the most prominent element marks the end of a sequence of sounds), and sequences that differ only in pitch or intensity are grouped as trochees (i.e., the most prominent element marks the beginning of a sequence). In 3 experiment...
متن کاملDo humans and nonhuman animals share the grouping principles of the iambic-trochaic law?
The iambic-trochaic law describes humans' tendency to form trochaic groups over sequences varying in pitch or intensity (i.e., the loudest or highest sounds mark group beginnings), and iambic groups over sequences varying in duration (i.e., the longest sounds mark group endings). The extent to which these perceptual biases are shared by humans and nonhuman animals is yet unclear. In Experiment ...
متن کاملRhythmic grouping in English, Greek and Korean: testing the iambic-trochaic law
The iambic-trochaic law (ITL) states that repeating sounds with an intensity contrast are perceived as binary groups with initial prominence (trochees) and those with a durational contrast with final prominence (iambs). Although the ITL has been empirically supported, it is not clear whether it is due to universal cognitive mechanisms or whether language-specific prosodic properties affect list...
