The voice of love
نویسندگان
چکیده
The present study is a phonetic analysis of the emotions of love. We focus on the voicing differentiation of romantic love, parental-child love, friendship (love for a friend), and patriotism. Open quotient, spectral tilt, formant frequencies and amplitudes were extracted from a target word spoken by male and female college students as they provided the voice over for selected video clips. Results reveal gender differences for open quotient and fundamental frequency. However, none of the voice source parameters were clearly able to differentiate the different forms of love.
