Résumé
This paper reports on the perception of Valence and Arousal by listeners of different cultural backgrounds, trying to reproduce previous results. Listeners (105) from five language groups were presented with vowel sounds produced by one speaker with varying voice qualities; they had to rate each on a "Calm-Excited" (Arousal) and a "Positive Negative" (Valence) five-points scales. The sounds acoustic characteristics were analysed in terms of fundamental frequency, spectral tilt and open quotient. The results show variation across language groups in their use of these acoustic cues to produce their judgements. These differences also apply to results from previous experiments, that differ for the Valence scale, but not for the Arousal one. A multidimensional analysis also showed some tendency of in-group similarity in the way to answer on these two scales.
