摘要：Paralinguistic information ―e.g. attitudes― can be transmitted through prosody. In this paper five acoustic properties (Xf0, Hf0, Xdb, Hdb and duration) of three attitudes are analysed. The attitudes are irony, anger and empathy, and for this purpose 40 young women from all Euskal Herria were asked to simulate such attitudes using a neutral sentence. The data were analysed using the Praat programme and the results extracted with the SPSS. As shown in the conclusions, the most discriminatory property is the Xf0, and duration is the weakest.
