Two experiments investigated the information conveyed by intonation from speaker to listener. A multiple-choice test was devised to test the ability of 48 adults to recognize and label intonation when it was separated from all other meaning. Nine intonation contours whose labels were most agreed upon by adults were each matched with two English sentences (one with appropriate and one with inappropriate intonation and semantic content) to make a matching-test for children. The matching-test was tape-recorded and given to children in the first, third, and fifth grades (32 subjects in each grade). The first-grade children matched the intonations with significantly greater agreement than chance; but they agreed upon significantly fewer sentences than either the third or fifth graders. Some intonation contours were matched with significantly greater frequency than others. The performance of the girls was better than that of the boys on an impatient question and a simple command which indicates that there was a significant interaction between sex and intonation.

8 Ss were presented verbal stimuli (numbers) during different stages of sleep. 15 sec. after each presentation they were awakened and asked if they had heard anything. If not, they were presented a multiple-choice test including the stimulus and another 3 numbers. It was concluded that: (1) even during stages 3 and 4 some perception of verbal stimuli is possible during sleep; (2) there is a progressive blurring of perception from stage 1 and REM to stages 3 and 4; (3) some forms of learning seem to be possible during sleep beyond a drowsy state, e.g., associations of words, but perceptual distortions make extremely unlikely the assimilation of complex verbal materials. It was also noticed that most verbal stimulations tended to produce a lightening of sleep as measured by the EEG. Based on the responses of some Ss the possibility of some form of subliminal perception during sleep was also raised.
