尽管各种研究都描述了女性比男性更长的片段持续时间和更慢的语速,但似乎存在女性比男性语速更快的刻板印象。为了调查经验证据与这种普遍存在的刻板印象之间的不匹配,进行了听力实验来测试感知节奏和声学元音空间大小之间是否存在关系。如果一个说话者在同一时间内比另一个说话者穿过更大的声学元音空间,那么该说话者可能会被认为说话速度更快。为了测试这一点,我们对女性或男性说话者进行了两项听力实验,但元音空间大小不同。听众被要求对同性说话者的言语节奏进行评分。刺激被操纵以具有相同的片段持续时间和f0轮廓。结果表明,声学元音空间大小与感知语音速度之间存在正相关。由于女性平均表现出比男性更大的声学元音空间,因此表明女性说话速度更快的刻板印象可能由此产生。
Despite various studies describing longer segment durations and slower speaking rates in females than males, there appears to be a stereotype of women speaking faster than men. To investigate the mismatch between empirical evidence and this widespread stereotype, listening experiments were conducted to test whether a relationship between perceived tempo and acoustic vowel space size might exists. If a speaker traverses a larger acoustic vowel space than another speaker within the same time then this speaker might be perceived as speaking faster. To test this, two listening experiments with either exclusively female or male speakers but with varying vowel space sizes were conducted. Listeners were asked to rate the perceived speech tempo of same-sex speaker pairs. The stimuli were manipulated to have the same segment durations andf0 contour. Results indicate that a positive correlation between acoustic vowel space size and perceived speech tempo exists. Since females exhibit on average a larger acoustic vowel space than males, it is suggested that the stereotype of faster speaking women might arise from this.
