Researchers assume that children acquire correct (adult norm) pronunciation around the age of 6 and that the process of developing speech is multi-stage.

Variations from adult pronunciation may be related to insufficient efficiency of articulators or poor mastery of language phonology.
Speech sounds , that require more precise articulatory movements are initially omitted or or pronounced as simpler sounds (sound substitution).
This applies primarily to mastering sounds considered more difficult, including most sibilants (including the sounds "s, z, c, dz, sz, ż, cz, dż").

Still relatively little is known about the acoustic indicators — embedded in the speech signal — of changes that occur with the development of articulation.
We know that language development does not occur in leaps but gradually. However, there is a lack of data showing whether this gradualness and transitional stages can be observed, measured, and mathematically described by studying recordings of children at various stages of their development.

Research on children aged 4-6 years
We will invite 50 typically developing children to participate in the project, who will undergo speech therapy and hearing tests every 6 months between their fourth and sixth birthdays.
Audio and video registration
Speech samples from the children will be recorded, as well as video data showing how their articulatory organs work while speaking.
Statistical model
The aim of the work is to develop a statistical model describing the nature and rate of change in the improvement of sibilant articulation based on parameters determined from audio recordings and video images of the face.
