mandarin motherese

[Shari Berkowitz]

I have one poster by Liu, Tsao & Kuhl, where they found highly exaggerated
pitch contours in infant-directed speech.  You might want to email
liumei at u.washington.edu, or perhaps check Pat Kuhl's website.

I would be interested in whatever other references you find.

Best,
Shari Berkowitz

Dear all,

I am currently researching the area of prosody in Mandarin
infant-directed language. And I am wondering if anyone is familiar
with prior research that has been done on Mandarin motherese, because
the literature that I can get my hands on seem somewhat limited.
Information on research done in Mandarin is also welcome. Your help
will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Sincerely
