Réflexions méthodologiques sur l’analyse phonétique d’un corpus longitudinal et transversal en acquisition du langage

The goal of this study is to see whether children’s level of language development has any effect on the acoustic structure of laughter. A major difficulty lies in the fact that such a study needs to combine both synchronic analyses and a longitudinal approach. This paper is based on an acoustic stud...

description The goal of this study is to see whether children’s level of language development has any effect on the acoustic structure of laughter. A major difficulty lies in the fact that such a study needs to combine both synchronic analyses and a longitudinal approach. This paper is based on an acoustic study conducted on 120 laughters produced by 3 monolingual French-speaking children in natural interaction with their environment at the age of 18, 24, 30 and 36 months. Our results are discussed in the context of different methodological issues including: the interests and limitations of shared large corpora, the selection of laughter samples to be analyzed, and the interrelation of quantitative and qualitative approaches.
