The Computerization of Phonetics
Religious Commitment and Mental Health
Research on the relationship between religious commitment and psychopamology has produced mixed findings. In a recent meta-analysis, Bergin (1983) found mat 23% of the studies reported a negative relationship, 47% reported a positive relationship, and 30% reported no relationship at all between religion and mental health. Based on our review of more than 200 studies, we have discovered four additional trends: (a) Most studies linking religious co…
Perceptual Evidence Against Internal Structure in American Sign Language Syllables
Syllables in spoken languages have been argued to have an internal structure which may cluster the consonants and vowels into subgroups. The most commonly used subgroups are the Onset (initial consonants) and Rhyme (vowel and remaining consonants), with the further possibility of dividing the Rhyme into Nucleus (the vowel and any on- or off-glides) and the Coda (the final consonants). Although linguistic debate continues about the exact formulati…
The PHONASCII system
The Journal has received this newsletter which describes a well-developed system for the computer coding of phonetic symbols. Although the account shows a bias towards the transcription of English, the system does provide for an unusually wide range of prosodic codes and of diacritic symbols, including some for which the current International Phonetic Alphabet makes no provision. Given the Journal's active interest in the subject of computer codi…
How the young French child avoids the pre-voicing problem for word-initial voiced stops
Macken & Barton (1980) noted an asymmetry in their young Spanish-learning children's word-initial stop productions, as compared with English-learning children's, namely, ‘the Spanish-learning children acquire “lead” voicing...after age four’, whereas ‘English-learning children acquire “long lag” stops...by about 2;6’. ‘One possible explanation’, they propose, ‘is that lead voicing is inherently difficult to produce or at least more difficult to l…
Linguistic experience modifies lexical stress perception
Sensitivity to differences in lexical stress pattern was examined in 4- and 5-year-old monolingual French-, German- and Swedish-speaking children. For most stimulus discriminations, the 5-year-olds outperformed their 4-year-old comparison groups. For a discrimination involving a trisyllabic distinction not found in French, however, the French 5-year-olds performed worse than their 4-year-old compatriots, suggesting that the older children had ‘le…

The Location of Rhythmic Stress Beats in English
This study examines the perceived location of rhythmic stress beats in sentences drawn from spontaneous conversation. Subjects listened to each sentence repeatedly from a tape loop and located the beats associated with various syllables in three ways: first, they tapped their fingers in time to the rhythm of the sentence; second, they moved an audible click around in the sentence until they felt it occurred at the same time that they would have t…
