[Values of certain prosodic parameters obtain with French-speaking probands without communication problems].
Acoustic data are provided in order to facilitate evaluation of the speech of adult patients with prosody disorders such as dysarthria. Forty French-speaking subjects between 45 and 75 years of age, with neither neurological disease nor a communication disorder, were grouped on the basis of sex and age. Subjects were required to produce four series of 20 matched interrogative and declarative sentences. Their productions were recorded and analyzed with an IBM Speech Viewer. Measures of fundamental frequency, of variation in fundamental frequency, of rate over the entire sentence, as well as a measure of intonation (defined as the difference in fundamental frequency between the last syllable of matched declarative and interrogative sentences) are reported in tables for clinical use. These data provide information for the evaluation of the prosody of French-speaking persons.
