Effects of Personality Traits and Affective Factors on English Prosodic Features in Japanese University Students: Acoustic and Physiological Analyses Reviewed

JACET Journal ( 69 ) 2024
Joint Work
There is a substantial body of work focused on the effect of affective factors on L2 learning. Most of these studies, however, are based on questionnaires and self-reports. This study aims to objectively explore the effects of trait-anxiety on state-anxiety by measuring heart rate and pitch changes during L2 oral reading tasks. Fifty-four university students read a passage in the following sequence: first in English, then in Japanese, and in English again. The heart rate and pitch changes at the sentence level were compared between the first and second English readings. Results showed that participants with higher affective factors did not exhibit significant difference in heart rate, whereas those with lower affective factors indicated a significantly higher heart rate during the first reading compared to the second. Similarly, participants with higher affective factors did not show a significant difference in maximum fo between the first and second readings while those with lower affective factors demonstrated a significantly higher maximum fo during the first reading than the second. Furthermore, fo range was narrower for the high affective group than the low affective group. These findings highlight the impact of both trait-anxiety and state-anxiety on L2 speaking.

Event date： 2024.8
There are only a limited number of studies that focus on the effects of L2 anxiety on prosody. (Baran-Łucarz, 2011; Szyszka, 2011) This study aims to explore objectively whether shyness and communication apprehension (CA) in both L1 and L2 affect pitch at the word level in English oral reading and spontaneous speech based on physiological and acoustic analyses. The participants were 38 university students (14 males, 24 females). The study utilized three questionnaires to measure shyness (Trait Shyness Scale), L1 CA (the Personal Report of Communication Apprehension), and L2 CA (8 items from the Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety) along with the Versant speaking test to examine oral proficiency. The procedure was as follows: The study participant was instructed to wear a smartwatch to measure heart rate (HR) and complete a series of tasks. These tasks included reading an English text, reading a Japanese version of the same text, reading the original English text again, speaking about a personal happy experience for one minute, and completing questionnaires. Comparative analyses were conducted on the first English reading, the second English reading, and the spontaneous speech. The target word for analysis was ‘happy’, which was extracted from both the English passage and the spontaneous speech. The significant findings include : 1) Participants with higher levels of CA in public speech did not exhibit any changes between the first and second readings and displayed the highest heart rate (HR) during spontaneous speech. 2) Participants with higher levels of CA in their second language (L2) exhibited a narrower pitch range during spontaneous speech than those with lower CA in L2. These results suggest that individuals with higher levels of anxiety feel nervous during the first, second readings, and spontaneous speech, and appear to be less proficient in word stress.
