Laryngeal correlates of the English tense/lax vowel contrast
This study explores the possibility of an additional phonetic dimension to the English tense/lax vowel contrast involving differentiated vocal effort at the laryngeal level. The laryngeal dimension is assessed acoustically (Sluijter, 1995; Jessen 2002) and more directly by using electroglottography in conjunction with Marashek's (1997) model of the EGG signal. The EGG results are based on the MOCHA (Wrench, 2000) corpus.
