摘要本文继续研究突出的感知作为F0连续性的函数。在早期的一项研究中，第一作者已经表明，F0音程出现在词汇重读音节上，并使用Fujisaki模型口音命令的振幅来测量，这对该音节的突出程度有很大影响。最近的研究探索了F0连续性如何影响单个单词话语的突出度评级。结果表明，听者利用了物理上可获得的F0信息，因此在轮廓中包含间隙的单词被认为不那么突出。研究还表明，只要F0峰值仍然存在，受试者就能够补上缺失的部分。目前的研究探讨了受试者是否通过要求他们说出一个与口头单词刺激相同的重音强度的单词来弥补包含F0个间隔的单词的缺失，而口头单词与被要求说出的单词相同或不同。我们评估了单词时长、F0间隔和反应强度与突出程度的相关性，发现听者似乎确实会根据他们听到的刺激类型进行调整。指标项：突出度，感知度，藤崎模型，F0
Abstract This paper continues our work on the perception of prominence as a function of F0 continuity. In an earlier study the first author had shown that F0 intervals occurring at lexically stressed syllables and measured using the amplitude of Fujisaki model accent commands strongly contribute to the perceived prominence of that syllable. More recent work explored how F0 continuity influenced prominence ratings of single word utterances. The outcome indicated that listeners made use of the physically available F0 information and there-fore words containing gaps in the contour were perceived as less prominent. It was also shown that subjects were able to interpolate missing parts as long as the F0 peak was still pre-sent. The current study explores whether subjects compensate the lack of prominence in words containing F0 gaps by asking them to produce a word with the same accent strength as that of a spoken word stimulus, the spoke n word being either the same or different from the one they ar e asked to utter. We evaluated word durations, F0 intervals and intensitie s of the responses as correlates of prominence and found that listeners indeed seem to adjust depending on the kind of stimulus they have heard.
