    Abstract: Twenty-four caregivers and their two- to four-year-old children took part in a storybook reading task in which caregivers taught children novel labels (‘DAXY’) for familiar objects. One group ( N =12) received labels modelled syntactically as proper names (‘This is NAMED DAXY’), and another group ( N =12) received the same labels for the same objects modelled syntactically as adjectives (‘This is VERY DAXY’). Caregivers took strikingly different approaches to teaching words from the two lexical categories. In teaching proper names, but not adjectives, caregivers flagged cases in which one word was paired with two objects; two words were paired with one object; and one word was paired with an inanimate object. In teaching adjectives, but not proper names, caregivers discussed meaning and offered translations. Caregivers' distinctive strategies for teaching proper names and adjectives are congruent with recent findings about children's word meaning assumptions, and with analyses of the semantics of these lexical categories. The findings indicate that parental speech could provide a rich source of information to children in learning how different lexical categories are expressed in their native language.

    Abstract: The relation between the auditory brain stem potential called the frequency-following response (FFR) and the low pitch of complex tones was investigated. Eleven complex stimuli were synthesized such that frequency content varied but waveform envelope periodicity was constant. This was accomplished by repeatedly shifting the components of a harmonic complex tone upward in frequency by Δf of 20 Hz, producing a series of six-component inharmonic complex tones with constant intercomponent spacing of 200 Hz. Pitch-shift functions were derived from pitch matches for these stimuli to a comparison pure tone for each of four normal hearing adults with extensive musical training. The FFRs were recorded for the complex stimuli that were judged most divergent in pitch by each subject and for pure-tone signals that were judged equal in pitch to these complex stimuli. Spectral analyses suggested that the spectral content of the FFRs elicited by the complex stimuli did not vary consistently with component frequency or the first effect of pitch shift. Furthermore, complex and pure-tone signals judged equal in pitch did not elicit FFRs of similar spectral content.

    Abstract: A velocimeter was designed for longitudinal sound-speed measurements on 3-mm-thick (ASTM) rubber samples. Batch-to-batch variations in sound speed are detected to 0.1% precision by operators without technical experience. Each measurement required five minutes with the prototype device, and substantial reductions are expected with minor design modifications. The device consists of two ultrasonic transducers with a rubber sample sandwiched between them. During device assembly, the sample is squeezed by the transducers such that a known and reproducible transducer-transducer separation distance is obtained. A 5-MHz cw signal is then applied to one transducer. The phase angle difference of the signal received by the other transducer is read on a meter face, and is related to the wave speed in the rubber. By performing a detailed theoretical analysis of this geometry, we are able to meaningfully compensate the value of the meter reading for variations in temperature, thickness (related to the degree of sample squeezing used), and sound absorption, and also use the device for absolute sound speed and attenuation measurements.

    The relation between the human frequency following response and the low pitch of complex tones

    Abstract: The objective of this study was to examine the relation between the value of the low pitch of complex tones and the f0 of the frequency following response (FFR). Mean pitch matches between a series of six-component complex tones and comparison pure tones were obtained for four normal hearing subjects with extensive musical training. FFRs were recorded in response to the complex stimuli which were most divergent in pitch for each subject and to pure tone signals of equal pitch. The FFR records were analyzed for frequency composition. The f0 of the FFRs elicited by complex tones did not covary with frequency or pitch shift; the fundamental remained much closer to 200 Hz (the frequency with the period of the stimulus waveform). The f0 of the FFR to pure tones with pitch equal to the complex tones also approximated the stimulus waveform. It was suggested that the output of the neural mechanisms reflected in the FFR does not vary in a manner consistent with shift in low pitch of complex stimuli. [Work supported by NIH.]
