This book combines theoretical and experimental approaches to
provide a comprehensive account of glottalization in word-final
syllables in Italian. The speech production study at the heart of
the book sheds light on the source of glottalization, the
contextual factors determining its occurrence, and the acoustic
correlates which characterize its production. Acoustic analysis of
words presenting evidence of glottalization is carried out through
visual inspection of the acoustic signal together with spectral
analysis of voice quality. Statistical analysis of the data in the
study is performed using mixed effects models, as well as
tree-based methods including conditional inference trees and random
forests. Results of the study have implications for
cross-linguistic studies on voice quality.
