Relation of peak intraoral air pressure to tone

Electromyographic and intraoral air-pressure studies of bi-labial stops.

INTRODUCTION There have been a number of electromyographic (EMG) studies of the lips (Harris et al. 1965; Fromkin 1966; Perrin and Scharf 1970; Tatham and Morton 1968a, 1968b, 1970), at least one Lubker and Parris 1970) involving simultaneous measurement of intraoral air pressure behind bilabial stops. The experiment reported here was one of a series designed to throw light on the problem of de...

ویژگی های زمین شیمیایی، کانی شناسی، و میکرومورفولوژیکی خاک ها و سنگ مادر مربوطه در منطقه بین بخش های جنوبی زاگرس و خلیج فارس تا دریای عمان(استان هرمزگان، ایران) مورد بررسی قرار گرفت. هدف های این مطالعه شناسایی تغییرات در خصوصیات فیزیکی، شیمیایی، و ترکیب کانی شناسی خاک، مطالعه میکرومورفولوژی و تکامل خاک، و بررسی توزیع عنصر خاک بر اساس هوازدگی، پروسه های خاک و زمین شناسی جهت توصیف اثرات مواد مادر...

Tone features, tone perception, and peak alignment in Thai.

This paper investigates the relationship between the phonological features of tone and tone perception in Thai. Specifically, it tests the hypothesis (proposed by Morén & Zsiga) that the principle perceptual cues to the five-way tonal contrast in Thai are high and low pitch targets aligned to moras. Results of four perception studies, one using natural speech and three using digitally-altered s...

Effect of age, gender, and repeated measures on intraoral air pressure in normal adults.

The effect of age, gender, and repeated measures on intraoral air pressure (P0) was examined. Sixty adults comprised of 10 males and 10 females in each of three age groups (i.e., 20-39, 40-59, and 60-83 years) participated. P0 was assessed during voiceless stop plosive /p/ productions in repeated vowel/consonant syllables. The three medial plosives of a seven-syllable train were averaged to com...
