This study presents an experiment in crosslinguistic multimodal interpretation of emotional expressions. Earlier studies on multimodal communication have shown an interaction between the visual and auditive modalities. Other, cross-cultural, studies indicate that facial expression of emotions is more universal than prosody is. Cross-linguistic interpretation of emotions could then be more succe...

This paper adresses two questions. The first question is if perception of emotional prosody changes when visual stimuli are present. It has already been shown by others that the perception of vowels and consonants is augmented or changed when visual information is present.The question is then if perception of such categories as emotions, mainly expressed by prosody, are also affected by multimo...

The fact that Parsing and Generation share the same grammatical knowledge is often considered null hypothesis (Momma Phillips 2018) but very few algorithms can take advantage of a cognitively plausible incremental procedure operates roughly in way words are produced understood real time. This especially difficult if we consider cross-linguistic variation has clear impact on word order. In this ...

RATIONALE, AIMS AND OBJECTIVES The diversity of the population worldwide suggests a great need for cross-culturally validated research instruments or scales. Researchers and clinicians must have access to reliable and valid measures of concepts of interest in their own cultures and languages to conduct cross-cultural research and/or provide quality patient care. Although there are well-establis...
