Abstract
Developmental research into relative weighting of vocalic duration and spectral properties in final voicing perception has produced different results, depending on whether natural or synthetic speech stimuli have been used and how spectral properties have been manipulated. This paper reports developmental data for final voicing using natural stimuli waveform edited for vocalic duration and resynthesized for first formant offset. Results indicate that in perception of final voicing there are adult-child differences in weighting of vocalic duration and first formant offset, consistent with previous findings for vocalic duration and spectral properties more generally.
