This paper describes an experiment which attempted to test the hypothesis that the Japanese perceive accent on the highest pitched syllable in an English utterance. A group of 120 Japanese students and another group of 27 Australian students were asked to point out the intonational nucleus in 25 utterances. The results indicate that the Japanese subjects were less successful than the Australian subjects in identifying sentence stress in utterances in which the F 0 difference between the highest and the second highest syllable was smaller than 70 Hz. In utterances with a F 0 difference larger than 70 Hz the Japanese subjects' stress perception was the same as that of the Australian subjects
