Tümce ezgisi, sözcük, ek, altses görünümleri) geniş toplumsal ulamlarla (Örn. Cinsiyet, sınıf, bölge) eşleşmesiüzerinden açıklanmaktadır. Alanda son dönemde yapılan çalışmalar ise toplumsal anlamın dinamik ve bütünleşik birbilgi birikimi olarak toplumda var olduğunu belirtmektedir (Agha, 2003; Eckert, 2008; Silverstein, 2003). ‘Belirtiseldizi’ (Silverstein, 2003) ve ‘belirtisel alan’ (Eckert, 2008) kavramlarıyla açıklanan bu ideolojik bilgi birikimi, kesin vesabit olmayan, toplumsal yönelimler ve dönüşümler sonucu her zaman değişime açık olan dilsel birimleri içeren anlamkümeleri olarak verilmektedir. Toplumsesbilgisel ölçekteki bu çalışma, ezgideki en düşük ve en yüksek titreşimbölümleri arasındaki alanı ifade eden perde genişliğini değişken olarak ele alarak bu değişken üzerinden dinleyicilerinalgısında anlam kümeleri olarak yer eden ‘belirtisel alanlara’ ulaşmayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu odak ile çalışma, bireylerinya da grupların nasıl konuştuklarına değil, üretimlerinin hangi anlamlar çerçevesinde algılandığına yoğunlaşmaktadır.Çalışmada üç aşamalı bir deney uygulanmıştır. (i) İlk aşamada ölçünlü dil kullanan konuşuculardan (N=8) mülakat veharita yöntemleriyle ses kayıtları alınmıştır. (ii) Alınan bu ses kayıtları ikinci aşamada perde genişliği ve süreçerçevesinde güdümlenmiş ve dinleyici algısına sunulacak örnekçeler hazırlanmıştır. (iii) Belirlenen 12 örnekçeüçüncü ve son aşamada toplumdilbilimsel grup mülakatı (N=52) ve örtük eşleştirmeli anket (Lambert ve diğ., 1960)ile dinleyicilerin algısına sunulmuştur (Üç farklı oturumda N=224). Üniversite öğrencileriyle gerçekleştirilen ve herbirinde dört katılımcının bulunduğu grup mülakatı ile elde edilen nitel bulgular örtük eşleştirmeli ankette katmansızbir gruba sunulmuş ve faktör analizi ve doğrusal/karma model ile gelen nicel bulgular üzerinden konuşma algısıverisinin üçgenlemesi yapılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonucunda dil konuşucularının üretimlerinde gerçekleşen perdegenişliğinin konuşma algısında ‘öğrenim durumu/eğitim düzeyi’ merkezli belirtisel alanlar oluşturduğu görülmektedir.‘Öğrenim durumu/eğitim düzeyi’ merkezli belirtisel alanın içeriğinde baskınlık, öğrenim durumu temelli mesleğesahip olma, ölçünlü dil kullanımı, güvenilirlik ve resmilik gibi anlamlar bulunmaktadır.

However, the studies given lately assert that the social meaning is found in the society in dynamic andcumulative ways (Agha, 2003; Eckert, 2008; Silverstein, 2003). This ideologically accumulated knowledge, which iseither called as ‘indexical order’ (Silverstein, 2003) or ‘indexical field’ (Eckert, 2008), has been described as collectivesocial meanings which are not stable and fixed and thus bearing the probability of changing according to socialmovements. In this regard, this study, which resides in the field of sociophonetics, aims to uncover indexical fieldsthat emerge in the perception of pitch-width, e.g., the range between the highest and the lowest pitch in speech. Withthis aim, the study focuses on the perception of speech, and not how people speak. A tripartite experimental design hasbeen employed: (i) In the first stage, recordings were adopted by speakers through interviews and map-task (N=8) toform speech stimuli. (ii) Then, the speech stimuli were further manipulated in terms of pitch-width and duration tocreate tokens. (iii) In the last stage, the 12 tokens determined were presented to the perception of the listeners throughsociolinguistic group interviews (N=52) and matched-guise survey (Lambert et al., 1960) (In three sessions, N=224).The qualitative findings yielded by the sociolinguistic group interviews which were conducted with university studentswere later presented to random population through matched-guise survey, and the quantitative results obtained fromthe survey were analysed by employing factor analysis and linear/mixed effect models. As a result, it has been foundthat the indexical fields on the pitch-width are determined by the perceived education level of the speakers. In theindexical interpretation of ‘education level’, there are such implications as dominance, having a job which requiresdistinct education level, using standard language, reliability and formality.
