Introduction
Significant variability in the language performance of children with cochlear implant (CI) is widely recognized in the literature, particularly concerning morphosyntactic (MS) skills. The perceptual limitations of the CI, which can lead to phonological difficulties, may be responsible for this increased vulnerability in grammatical abi...
Purpose
The objective of the present study is to investigate nasal and oral vowel production in French-speaking children with cochlear implants (CIs) and children with typical hearing (TH). Vowel nasality relies primarily on acoustic cues that may be less effectively transmitted by the implant. The study investigates how children with CIs manage to...
Socio-affective functioning, or the way we interact and relate to others, is one of the four dynamic sexual recidivism risk domains. Accurately recognizing emotions enables the inference of mental and affective states supporting social adaptation. As little attention has been paid to affective prosody recognition in forensic inpatients who have com...
Introduction
The acoustic limitations of cochlear implants (CIs) can lead to perceptual limitations and consequently to imprecise phonological representations and production difficulties. The aim of the study is to document the phonological and phonetic skills of children with CIs and their typically hearing peers. Phonetically, three types of segm...
Purpose
The present study investigates the perception of vowel nasality in French-speaking children with cochlear implants (CIs; CI group) and children with typical hearing (TH; TH group) aged 4–12 years. By investigating the vocalic nasality feature in French, the study aims to document more broadly the effects of the acoustic limitations of CI in...
Contexte : La lecture d’un texte permet le meilleur compromis entre l’aspect écologique de l’évaluation de la parole et de la voix, et l’observation de stimuli cibles
dans un environnement contrôlé. Bien qu’il existe différents textes en Français, aucun d’entre eux ne semble vraiment répondre aux attentes et aux besoins des cliniciens et des cherch...
Emotion Recognition (ER) is a component of socio-affective functioning, one of the four main dynamic sexual recidivism risk domains. Despite previous research suggesting deficits from Sexual Offenders (SOs) in socio-affective functioning, the literature has scarcely studied ER, such as Affective Prosody Recognition. Only Suchy et al. (2009) highlig...

Objectives
Our aim is to detect early, subclinical speech biomarkers of dysarthria in Parkinson’s disease (PD), i.e., systematic atypicalities in speech that remain subtle, are not easily detectible by the clinician, so that the patient is labeled “non-dysarthric.” Based on promising exploratory work, we examine here whether vowel articulation, as...
We present a multidimensional acoustic report describing variation in speech productions on data collected from 500 francophone adult speakers (20 to 93 y.o.a.) as a function of age. In this cross-sectional study, chronological age is considered as a continuous variable while oral productions, in reading and speech-like tasks, are characterized via...
Background: The presence of naming difficulties in Parkinson’s Disease (PD), especially object naming difficulties, as well as the associate cognitive difficulties, remains a controversial topic.
Aims: This study assesses object naming capacities in PD patients and the cognitive impairment related to the patients’ word naming difficulties, whether...
Resumen
Introducción: En este estudio se explora la forma en que el envejecimiento afecta a la producción del habla. Indudablemente, son muchos los cambios que se producen a edades avanzadas en los procesos de control motor, así como en la integridad de los músculos laríngeos y supralaríngeos, y que pueden afectar a la producción del habla. Sin emb...
To respond to the need of objective screening tools for motor speech disorders (MSD), we present the screening version of a speech assessment protocol (MonPaGe-2.0.s), which is based on semi-automated acoustic and perceptual measures on several speech dimensions in French. We validate the screening tool by testing its sensitivity and specificity an...
Cette étude s’intéresse à l’évolution des capacités de production de la parole dans le vieillissement, dans une perspective lifespan.

Notre projet de recherche doctoral a pour objectif premier d'interroger les liens développementaux unidirectionnels et bidirectionnels qui peuvent être observés non seulement entre le langage oral, plus précisément l'articulation des sons de parole, et les fonctions exécutives, mais également entre ces fonctions cognitives et les habiletés motrices...
Certains types de bilinguisme pourraient avoir un impact positif sur l'apprentissage phonique et faciliter l'acquisition d'une L3. Certains bilingues pourraient donc présenter une meilleure compliance phonique (aptitude à produire des sons de parole non familiers) que les monolingues. Les données de quatre sujets bilingues ont été recueillies lors...
Purpose:
Several perceptual scales have been developed to assess voice quality in dysphonic voices, among which the Grade Roughness Breathiness Asthenia Strain and a Rate of Dysphonia scale is probably the most frequently used. However, this clinical tool has not been properly validated with a normophonic population yet. The aim of the present stu...

The paper shows preliminary results of longitudinal studies developed both in Belgium (frenchspeaking children) and in Catalonia (monolingual spanishspeaking and catalonianspeaking children). The aim is to investigate the acquisition of phonemes mastery on the basis of the acoustic study of the children utterances. The children are aged 31-48 month...
En plus de la diminution des capacités cognitives et de production langagière (Barresi et al., 2000), l’âge entraine une réduction des capacités de mobilisation et de coordination neuromusculaires impliquées dans la production de la parole (Sweeting & Baken, 1982). Cependant, l’évolution des capacités de production de la parole dans le vieillisseme...
In aphasia, the phonological or phonetic origin of language production errors affecting phonemes is often discussed. However, the distinction between phonological and phonetic paraphasias is generally based on perceptual analyses that could be influenced by the experimenter’s perceptual system and/or expectations (Marczyk & Baqué, 2013). In our stu...

The paper presents a study of the evolution with age (50 - 80) of the Voice Onset Time in plosive consonants of French
RESUME La spécificité phonologique ou phonétique des erreurs de production orale observées chez les patients aphasiques reste débattue. Cependant, la distinction entre ces deux types d'erreurs est fréquemment basée sur des analyses perceptives qui peuvent être influencées par le système perceptif de l'expérimentateur. Afin de pallier ce biais, nous...

The issue we address in this review paper is to what extent mutual adaptation plays a role in the emergence and evolution of phonological systems.Adaptation to the interlocutor has been shown to take many forms and to embrace all the levels of spoken language, from adjustments in vocal intensity to changes in word forms over the course of a convers...
In this paper, we introduce the concept of “phonetic compliance,” which is defined as the intrinsic individual ability to produce speech sounds that are unusual in the native language, and constitutes a part of the ability to acquire L2 phonetics and phonology. We argue that phonetic compliance represents a systematic source of variance that needs...
Transgender persons constitute a small but growing population in ENT department: As a matter of fact, many voice parameters significantly contribute to the perception of gender (fundamental frequency, supraglottic resonance patterns, etc.). The persons involved in transition processes may therefore aim at changing their own voice properties, either...
Laryngopharyngeal reflux is a prevalent, yet incompletely understood, ENT disorder accounting for 8 to 10% of patients consulting ENT. This clinical entity, increasingly considered as different from gastroesophageal reflux disease, may greatly affect the quality of life of patients through vocal and digestive symptoms. Debate persists concerning pa...
This paper reports on an exploratory study of the processes involved in the acquisition of new phonetic control regimes in L2 learning. We focus here on the acquisition of long VOT initial stops by French native speakers undergoing production training. Francophone speakers were asked to repeat /ta/ stimuli varying in VOT and burst intensity. The pe...
This paper provides a comparative gestural account of nasal vowels in Southern French (Marseille, Toulouse; France) and in Northern French (Liège, Tournai; Belgium). Timing measurements based on acoustic data confirm a different temporal organisation of the gestures between the two regiolects. We also report on statistical comparisons between phone...
Cette étude (à caractère exploratoire et méthodologique) s'articule à un projet consacré aux facteurs et capacités d'apprentissage phonétique. Elle se centre sur l'une des compétences phoniques déjà investiguées [1,2]: la maîtrise d'un VOT long par des francophones ne maîtrisant aucune langue où apparaît ce type de caractéristique. Son originalité...
Dans cette étude, nous avons simulé en laboratoire un aspect spécifique de la situation de nouveaux apprenants «vrais débutants » dont la langue maternelle est le français, qui entrent en contact pour la première fois avec les occlusives non voisées, aspirées à l’initiale de mot, d’une langue étrangère (p.ex. l’anglais), et qui tentent de les repro...
From the first linguistic descriptions mentioning nasal sounds (as old as Panini’s, 5th century BC) to the phonetic and phonological studies in the 20th and 21st century, passing by the work of comparative grammarians in the 19th century, nasalization has always been a topic of investigation for those who are interested in human language and speech...
RÉSUMÉ

Nous présentons les résultats de deux expériences perceptuelles menées sur des auditeurs francophones...
Nasalization in French involves a complex interplay between several phonetic and phonological factors that have been, for the most part, investigated separately over the last 40 years. The present study provides a detailed account of the aerodynamics of French nasalization from eight Belgian French speakers reading word lists. Patterns of tautosyll...
This paper introduces to a special session on nasalization at the XVI th ICPhS. Nasal studies have a long history, at the interface between phonetics and phonology. The three invited papers of the session are presented and discussed in this framework.
This paper deals with the influence of ambient speech on individual speech productions. A methodological framework is defined to gather the experimental data necessary to feed computer models simulating self-organisation in phonological systems. Two experiments were carried out. Experiment 1 was run on French native speakers from two regiolects of...
Most studies of vocalizations with chimpanzees and Bonobos focus on the interpretation of the vocal behaviour of both captive and free-ranging groups to relate sounds produced to their semantic contexts. Spectrographic analyses reveal the acoustic structure of the vocalizations but rarely raise the question of the specific articulatory capacities o...
