Fig. 5.
Formant amplitude factor across age, parental gender, and interaction context. Panel (a) shows a significant decrease in formant amplitude factor between 3 and 9 months, followed by a significant increase between 9 and 18 months. Panel (b) presents the significant interaction between parent (father/mother) and age, with fathers showing lower values at 9 months. Panel (c) displays the significant interaction between condition (two- and three-person) and age, with lower formant amplitude factor values in the two-person condition, particularly at 9 months. Data points represent individual participants, and error bars indicate standard error. Differences across conditions are discussed in relation to parental gender, interaction context, and child age.
