| Challenge: | Prior work has shown that the information carried by prosodic features is substantially redundant with that carried by the surrounding words. |
| Approach: | They examine the time scale of this relationship, studying how it varies with the length of past and future contexts. |
| Outcome: | The results show that prosody features show some redundancy with future words, but only with a short scale of 1-2 words, consistent with reports of incremental short-term planning in language production. |
