“…Though little is known about social communicative intentions as conveyed through prosody, there is some evidence that different kinds of "social prosodic" functions including conveying humor, sarcasm, irony, or sincerity, can also be linked to specific acoustic cue configurations (e.g., Monetta, Cheang, Pell, 2008;Rigoulot, Fish, Pell, 2014;Scharrer, Christmann, & Knoll, 2011), similar to findings from emotional prosody research.
