Vowel acoustic space development in children: a synthesis of acoustic and anatomic data.

PURPOSE This article integrates published acoustic data on the development of vowel production. Age specific data on formant frequencies are considered in the light of information on the development of the vocal tract (VT) to create an anatomic-acoustic description of the maturation of the vowel acoustic space for English. METHOD Literature searches identified 14 studies reporting data on vow...

Acoustic development of vowel production in American English children

Children’s vowel acquisition has long been examined on the basis of transcription-based evaluations of the accuracy rate of the vowel production in children before 5 years of age. This study examines the development of static and dynamic acoustic features in children between 3 and 7 years of age by comparing the acoustic features of children with those of adults. All acoustic analyses were base...

Vowel-vowel Planning in Acoustic and Muscle Space

The objective of this research is to investigate the planning and control of vowel-to-vowel sequences using a computer model of the vocal tract. The vocal tract model, which is based on a French male speaker, consists of a biomechanical tongue model (Perrier et al., 2003) with the addition of jaw (rotation and translation) and lip (opening and protrusion) movements. A comparison of acoustic dat...

Reference data for the American English acoustic vowel space.

Reference data for the acoustic vowel space area (VSA) in children and adolescents do not currently appear to be available in a form suitable for normative comparisons. In the current study, individual speaker formant data for the four corner vowels of American English (/i, u, æ, ɑ/) were used to compute individual speaker VSAs. The sample included 300 children aged 5-18 years and 38 adults age...

The acoustic vowel space of modern Greek and German.

The spectral characteristics of vowels in Modern Greek and German were examined. Four speakers of Modern Greek and three speakers of German produced four repetitions of words containing each vowel of their native language. Measurements of the fundamental frequency and the first three formats were made for each vowel token. These measurements were then transformed into log frequency ratios and p...
