Rhythm and Expression in The Cat in the Hat Mara Breen 1 , Sarah Weidman 1 , Katharine Guarino 2 1 Department of Psychology and Education, Mount Holyoke College, South Hadley, MA, USA 2 Department of Psychology, The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, TX, USA mbreen@mtholyoke.edu, weidm22s@mtholyoke.edu, katieguarino22@gmail.com Abstract In recent years, there has been increasing interest in whether rhythmic interventions support young children’s literacy development [1]. To begin to explore this connection, we assessed several aspects of rhythmicity and expressivity of productions of the notably rhythmic and rhyming children’s book, The Cat in The Hat by Dr. Seuss. Participants subjectively rated either the rhythmicity or expressivity of speech taken from recordings of the book read aloud. These perceptual ratings were correlated with acoustic measures of rhythmicity and expressivity. Moreover, we observed a surprising lack of consistency between perceptual ratings of rhythmicity and expressivity. However, we observed a consistent relationship between the perceptual ratings of the first couplet of verses and the second, suggesting that readers showed self-entrainment in rhythmicity and expressivity between verse couplets. These findings can inform our investigation of the role of rhythm in literacy development and set the stage for further investigation into rhythmic entrainment across speakers. Download 488.74 Kb.
