/><b>Descripción</b><br /><p> <i>Perception of Castilian
Spanish Intonation</i> presents four perception experiments on the
intonation of Castilian Spanish, two dealing with the declarative vs.
absolute interrogative distinction and two dealing with the broad
focus vs. narrow focus distinction in declaratives. These experiments
provide insight into the intonational system of Castilian Spanish that
goes beyond what is possible through studies of speech production. For
both distinctions investigated, the aim of the experiments is to
determine which of the multiple intonational cues lead listeners to
perceive sentence type or focus type. The experimental results not
only lead to a better understanding of how intonation communicates
sentence type and focus type in Castilian Spanish, but also have
implications for the phonological analysis of Castilian Spanish
intonation as well as for the Autosegmental-Metrical theory of
intonational phonology. With respect to the analysis of Castilian
Spanish intonation, the experimental results present a challenge to
the common analysis that F0 rises that begin near the onset of the
stressed syllable, but which differ based on the alignment of the F0
peak, result from two phonologically distinct pitch accents.<br /><br
/>With respect to the Autosegmental-Metrical theory of intonational
phonology, the results present a challenge to its limited ability to
account for linguistically meaningful distinctions in pitch scaling
beyond the High vs. Low tone distinction and also for the often
assumed compositional approach to intonational meaning. For each of
these challenges, a new proposal is offered to more adequately account
for the data.</p><br /><b>Temática:</b> Fonética, Fonología<br
