Dear members,

I'm actually writing my PhD thesis, directed by Uli Frauenfelder 
(University of Geneva), on the role of prosodic cues and other phonological 
cues to the segmentation of the words in French. Particularly, in the 
second set of experiments, the particular role of primary accents in speech 
segmentation is demonstrated. Since prosodic marking is multi-parametric, 
one of my objectives is to investigate the relative contribution of 
durational and/or intonational boundary cues to the perception of 
prominences. I was wondering whether my results should be explained by 
interindividual differences of sensibility to rhtyhmic and/or to melodic cues.

Since you're working on music, you probably know whether some papers do 
exist on the individual sensitivity to temporal vs. melodic aspects of 
music. Could you please advise me on crucial publications relative to this 
question?

Thank you very much,
Best regards,
