- W202440555 abstract "The present study is an investigation of the plausibility of a link between first spoken language and the use of vocal pitch in speaking and singing. Comparisons were made between the use of pitch in the speech and songs among three groups of Hong Kong children, who were English monolinguals, Cantonese monolinguals, and Cantonese/English bilinguals. Speech and songs of 60 children age 3 and 4 were collected and acoustic analyses were performed to extract pitch. All children in the study used pitch to distinguish cognitively between their speech and songs. English monolinguals made wider differences between the fundamental frequency (Fo) means for songs and speech compared to the two other language groups. Differences between the Fo means for the criterion and the own choice song were statistically significant in both age groups across languages, suggesting the performance of the two songs might have been very different for these children. English monolinguals had the highest Fo means for both songs, followed by the Cantonese/English bilinguals and then the Cantonese monolinguals. Findings of the study provide evidence of language differences in vocal pitch behaviors for speech and song production. Background In contrast to an innate sensory capability to perceive acoustical pitch, musical pitch perception may be considered a psycho-acoustical construct whereby it is subject to interpretations. Moore (1997) explains the perception of musical pitch as an attribute of auditory sensation in terms of which sounds may be ordered on a musical scale (p. 3). According to this view, musical pitch processing involves the extraction of musical information from the auditory environment, and then categorizing pitched sound and interpreting the sound as having musical qualities. What childhood auditory experience might contribute to musical pitch processing? Among other stimuli in the auditory domain, speech and music are both highly organized sound, rich in patterned information, and literature reports that young infants are capable of using very sophisticated skills to process pitch-contour properties in linguistic and musical patterns. Hence, it is postulated that language processing might be related to musical pitch processing. The present study of possible language differences in children's vocal pitch behavior is based on three presumptions: 1. musical experiences are phenomenological and musical pitch processing is subject to an individual's interpretations of auditory experience;" @default.
