English (AAVE) who has difficulty with the Standard American English (SAE) dialect used in

ability to switch easily between dialects using SAE structures. Furthermore, being able to switch
codes will enable Fela to participate in more educational and vocational opportunities.

This investigation was motivated by observations that when persons with dysarthria increase
loudness, their speech improves. Some studies have indicated that this improvement may be
related to an increase of prosodic variation. Studies have reported an increase of fundamental
frequency (F0) variation with increased loudness, but there has been no examination of the
relation of loudness manipulation to specific prosodic variables that are known to aid a listener in
parsing out meaningful information. This study examined the relation of vocal loudness
production to selected acoustic variables known to inform listeners of phrase and sentence
boundaries: specifically, F0 declination and final-word lengthening. Ten young, healthy women
were audio-recorded while they read aloud a paragraph at what each considered normal loudness,
twice-normal loudness, and half-normal loudness. Results showed that there was a statistically -
answer✔Correct Answer: C
Option (C) is correct. The researchers manipulated vocal loudness to determine its effect on
prosodic F0 and durational variables.
