METHODOLOGICAL INFORMATION
--------------------------


1. Description of methods used for collection/generation of data: 
<Include links or references to publications or other documentation containing experimental design or protocols used in data collection>
For the acoustic study of the QA stress system, participants produced the target words in a carrier phrase. Then, target words were extracted into separate files and analyzed acoustically. For the familiarity study, the stimuli were produced by a 66-year-old native Qassimi Arabic speakers. Then Qualtrics surveys were created where participants listened to the target words and rated them on a 7-point scale on how familiar they were with the words/how likely they would be to produce them. 


2. Methods for processing the data: <describe how the submitted data were generated from the raw or collected data>


3. Instrument- or software-specific information needed to interpret the data:


4. Standards and calibration information, if appropriate:


5. Environmental/experimental conditions:
