We study the electoral re-alignment within the right-wing Spanish electorate in recent years, whereby support for the long-predominant Partido Popular has been eroded dramatically to the benefit of new challengers. Measuring ideological polarisation at the party system level and at the individual level, we show how the polarising strategy implemented by the liberal Ciudadanos – and imitated by PP – to gain support from the right-wing electorate paved the way for a massive transfer of conservative voters to the radical-right Vox. The results provide counter-intuitive evidence about the electoral effects of elite polarisation: those individuals who perceived party polarisation less tended to vote more for the radical right party, while those who perceived greater polarisation among parties were more likely to vote for moderate forces.","PeriodicalId":47304,"journal":{"name":"South European Society and Politics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84344384","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The focus of this paper is timbre characteristics of the interjection YEAH and formant’s spectral pictures. The author focuses the special attention on these features with the help of multifunctional computer programme “Praat”. The author of the article specifies on the quantitative distributing of using interjection YEAH depending on gender belonging. The author accents basic attention on illustration the structure of formant analysis for both sexes using multifunctional computer programme “Praat”. The article is related to the structure of formants, quantitative distribution of speakers between two genders, the formants’ depending on gender factor. The indexes of quantative distribution of the speakers, influence of gender factor on prevailing the formants in the speech of speakers, quantative distribution of using interjection YEAH are visually represented. The paper concerned with the analysis of prosodic characteristics such as: the range of fundamental frequency and speech rate. Absolute maximum and minimum ranges of fundamental frequency for the representatives from two gender groups (women and men) specify the certain type of melody’s modification (intonation). The author has identified timbre as a component of prosody. The indexes of the absolute maximum and minimum of fundamental frequencies and speech rate are visually shown. In the paper the gender difference of speech rate was identified. The indexes of maximum and minimum rates of fundamental frequency are visually represented. The author presents examples of the interjection YEAH by means of pitch charts that demonstrate speech directions of the speakers. The charts display the points of minimum and maximum indexes of fundamental frequency for both women and men. The paper is concerned with the analysis of timbre as a prosody component by means of which strengthening of sounding in the appropriate formant is visually shown. The author considers timbre characteristics of the interjection YEAH and its belonging to a certain gender group. The quantitative distribution of the interjection YEAH was pointed out by analysis of formant’s structure. The article clarifies the dependence of the timbral characteristics of this interjection on the gender of the speakers. The author of the article points out the quantitative distribution of interjection’s usage by gender.
