人类婴儿在生命的最初几年就获得了言语运动模式。诸如人类言语之类的顺序发声是复杂的行为，并且学习新发声的能力仅限于少数动物物种。发声是通过三种器官的协调产生的：即发声器官、呼吸器官和发音器官。此外，复杂的时间呼吸控制对于涉及人类语音的顺序发声可能是必要的。然而，目前尚不清楚人类婴儿的协调能力是如何发展的，以及这种发展过程是否与其他声音学习者共享。为了回答这些问题，我们分析了人类婴儿第一年连续发声的时间参数，并将这些发育变化与另一种发声学习者孟加拉雀的鸣叫发育进行了比较。在人类婴儿中，早期哭泣也被分析为一种先天的顺序发声。测量了顺序发声的以下三个时间参数：音符持续时间（ND）、开始间间隔和音符间间隔（INI）。结果表明，人类婴儿和孟加拉雀在早期阶段的 INI 都比 ND 长。在整个开发过程中，INI 和 ND 逐渐趋于相似的范围。虽然婴儿的 ND 一直增加到 6 个月大，但雀类的 INI 一直下降到孵化后 60 天。关于婴儿哭声，ND和INI在相似的范围内，但INI的长度比ND更稳定。在顺序发声中，两个声乐学习者的时间参数随着随后的发音稳定而早期发展。然而，这种发育变化是以物种特异性的方式完成的。这些发现可以为我们理解声乐学习的演变提供重要的见解。
Human infants acquire motor patterns for speech during the first several years of their lives. Sequential vocalizations such as human speech are complex behaviors, and the ability to learn new vocalizations is limited to only a few animal species. Vocalizations are generated through the coordination of three types of organs: namely, vocal, respiratory, and articulatory organs. Moreover, sophisticated temporal respiratory control might be necessary for sequential vocalization involving human speech. However, it remains unknown how coordination develops in human infants and if this developmental process is shared with other vocal learners. To answer these questions, we analyzed temporal parameters of sequential vocalizations during the first year in human infants and compared these developmental changes to song development in the Bengalese finch, another vocal learner. In human infants, early cry was also analyzed as an innate sequential vocalization. The following three temporal parameters of sequential vocalizations were measured: note duration (ND), inter-onset interval, and inter-note interval (INI). The results showed that both human infants and Bengalese finches had longer INIs than ND in the early phase. Gradually, the INI and ND converged to a similar range throughout development. While ND increased until 6 months of age in infants, the INI decreased up to 60 days posthatching in finches. Regarding infant cry, ND and INI were within similar ranges, but the INI was more stable in length than ND. In sequential vocalizations, temporal parameters developed early with subsequent articulatory stabilization in both vocal learners. However, this developmental change was accomplished in a species-specific manner. These findings could provide important insights into our understanding of the evolution of vocal learning.
