This project aims to analyze prosody production and auditive perception on children's speech with typical and atypical phonological development in comparison with typcal adults speech. With that said, we want to find out similarities and/or differences among these three subject groups that could be understood as evidence of prosody acquisition process. The central hypothesis is that adult…
Assuming prosody is responsible for characterizing the rhythmic and melodic aspects of a language (Ladd, 2004) and, thus, composing its phonological structure (Nespor and Vogel, 1986; Selkirk, 1984), it becomes essential to address it from a theoretical phonological perspective, beyond its phonetic-acoustic aspects. However, there is a noticeable lack of studies from this perspective on B…
In Brazilian Portuguese, the distinction between declarative sentences and yes/no interrogative sentences is marked strictly by prosodic features, making prosody essential for signaling the illocutionary force of these speech acts in communicative interaction. Specifically, this distinction is conveyed through intonation, particularly by different nuclear pitch accents. However, it is imp…
This project aims to analyze the performance of children from different age groups in tasks that assess the manifestation of four distinct prosodic functions in speech production: illocutionary force, turn-taking marking, prominence marking, and stress marking. The goal is to compare the speech production performance of children from different age groups, as well as to identify the age ra…

This research deals with the audiovisual perception of emotions by children with Sound Speech Disorders in comparison with children under typical language development and adults. Specially, the performance of these children in perceiving emotions marked prosodically is addressed. The study is developed under the theoretical approach that conceives speech as multimodal, since it is assumed…
This research project works on perception of contrastive prosodic focus by children diagnosed with phonological disorder, which are native speakers of Brazilian Portuguese. Contrastive focus corrects or denies an information presented in a previous utterance in a communicative situation. The perception of contrastive focus is investigated under the theoretical approach that conceives spee…
The acquisition of prosodic skills throughout child development has been the subject of recent international studies, since, despite knowing that changes occur in the way children use and perceive prosody during the period of child development (CUTLER et al. , 1997; SNEDEKER and YUAN, 2008), there is a shortage of studies with reference data that point out what these changes are and in wh…

Research on atypical prosodic development in various languages is scarce. This is partly due to the significant challenge of understanding the development of prosody in typical populations. Even though the complexity and diversity of prosody, along with cultural and linguistic nuances, only makes this field of study more challenging, efforts have been made to address this topic, since it …
The aim of this project is to investigate the role of the duration of segments involved in tonal composition for the perception of intonational phrase boundaries. More particularly, the aim is to develop an experimental design which assesses, on one hand, whether the segment duration in contexts of prosodic boundary, combined with F0 variations, influences the perception of pauses and, on…
