The ensuing study examined the impact of Parkinson disease (PD) on the duration of CV syllables in different positions within phrases and the distribution of final lengthening (FL) on syllable subcomponents. The results showed that PD patients produced normal FL and that the FL effects can be attributed primarily to vowels. This suggests that the syntactic function of prosody is intact in PD pa...

Findings suggest there may be a U-shaped developmental trajectory for FSL. The present study sought to verify this pattern and to determine whether vocal maturity and deafness influence FSL. Eight normally hearing infants, aged 0;3 to 1;0, and ...
متن کاملPerceptual optimization of syllable duration in short French sentences
Two experiments were conducted in order to study the perceptual discrimination of syllable duration within sentences. Two natural French sentences each consisting of 8 syllables were re-synthesized with 15% increases and decreases in syllable duration up to ±60%. The modified stimuli were presented to subjects whose task was to judge how natural they sounded. The same stimuli were then used to ...

RESULTS The data indicated that the consonant durations were shortened in Parkinsonian speech (PS), compared to control speech (C...
