This study investigates the communication of affective-epistemic states (AES) by means of prosody in vocal verbal feedback. The study was conceived as a pilot study to test certain methodological queries about investigating prosody as a part of multimodal communication; and as part of feedback in particular. We find that our method; with some slight adjustments; seems adequate to answer several interesting questions about prosodic features of feedback.
