韵律夹带与各种形式的交际成功有关。在非任务型日常对话中评估成功沟通的一种可能性是通过参与者对对话质量的感知。在这项研究中，我们调查了说话者的韵律夹带程度是否反映了约会对话中感知到的对话质量。此外，我们还询问韵律夹带是否会反过来影响被感知的对话质量。基于98次自发的男女混合约会对话，我们发现对话质量对说话人的音调水平夹带程度有显著影响。此外，基音夹带对交际者如何看待对话质量也有很大的影响。然而，我们发现了这两种效应之间的差异，这表明说话人在感觉到的对话质量提高时所做的反应并不一定是对话者所感知的对话质量提高。因此，尽管我们发现韵律夹带和感知会话质量的双向影响，但这种联系在本质上并不是互惠的。
Prosodic entrainment is connected to various forms of communicative success. One possibility to assess successful communication in non-task-oriented everyday conversations is through the participants’ perception of conversational quality. In this study we investigate whether a speaker’s degree of prosodic entrainment reflects the perceived conversational quality in dating conversations. Furthermore, we ask whether prosodic entrainment can influence the perceived conversational quality in return. Based on 98 spontaneous mixed-sex dating conversations we find that conversational quality has a significant effect on a speaker’s degree of pitch level entrainment. Furthermore, pitch entrainment also has a significant effect on how one’s interlocutor perceives the conversational quality. However, we find differences between the two effects which suggests that what a speaker does in reaction to increased perceived conversational quality is not necessarily what an interlocutor perceives as increased conversational quality. Accordingly, while we find a bidirectional influence of prosodic entrainment and perceived conversational quality, this connection is not reciprocal in nature.
