1. Word-form recognition in 6-month-olds? Using event-related potentials to study the influence of infant-directed speech
Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för lingvistikSammanfattning : By 4.5 months infants listen longer to their names compared to matched foils, which is the earliest empirically demonstrated sign of word-form recognition. This ability develops gradually in the first year of life and becomes increasingly advanced. LÄS MER
2. Relation between vowel hypo-/hyperarticulation and vocal affect in Swedish infant directed speech
Magister-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för lingvistikSammanfattning : Vowel hyperarticulation and hyper affect are two characteristics of infant-directed speech (IDS), reported in several studies. Vowel hyperarticulation has been suggested to be a way in which adults subconsciously facilitate infants’ language acquisition, but it has also been argued to be the acoustic by-product of an affective speaking style.

3. Samband mellan fonetiska aspekter och bedömningar av känslor i barnriktat tal
Kandidat-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för lingvistikSammanfattning : Barnriktat tal (BRT) är ett speciellt sätt för vuxna att tala till barn som bland annat kännetecknas av att vissa känslolägen och intentioner ofta uttrycks starkare än i vuxenriktat tal (VRT). Denna studie undersökte subjektivt bedömda känslolägen och intentioner i BRT och hur de korrelerar med fonetiska aspekter. LÄS MER
4. Fundamental frequency as basis for speech segmentation modeling
Magister-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Avdelningen för fonetikSammanfattning : The present study investigates the relevance of fundamental frequency in speech segmentation models intended to simulate infants. Speech from three different conditions (infant-directed speech to 3- and 12-month-olds, and adult-directed speech) was segmented based on fundamental frequency information, using a variant of the dpn-gram segmenting technique (highlighting similar segments as lexical candidates).

5. Assessing the Relevance of Prosodic and Phonotactic Cues on Parsing the Speech Stream by Young Language-Learners
Magister-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Avdelningen för fonetikSammanfattning : This is a study about how one-year-old Swedish-learning infants presumably use probabilistic information, such as prosody and phonotactic regularity, in segmentation of speech. The variables studied were the Swedish tonal word accents I & II and the distributional regularities of within-word and between-word consonant clusters in Swedish infant-directed speech. LÄS MER
