Articulatory and perceptual factors controlling the age- and sex-conditioned variability in formant frequencies of vowels

Speech sounds, as heard by listeners, contain phonetic, personal, and transmission information. The differences between the formant frequencies of vowels spoken by men, women, and children show a f ...
