Perception by 2-month-old infants of glide contrasts in multisyllabic utterances.
Several aspects of the 2-month-old's perception of a phonetic contrast between glides in multisyllabic utterances were explored with the high-amplitude sucking paradigm. First, do infants perceive contrasts between glides in the initial (e.g., YADA vs. WADA) and medial positions (e.g., DAYA vs. DAWA)of multisyllabic utterances? Second, are infants more likely to perceive these contrasts between...
متن کاملHow Do 4-Day-Old Infants Categorize Multisyllabic Utterances?
Three experiments, using the high-amplitude sucking procedure. tested whether 4-day-old infants discriminate multisyllabic utterances on the basis of number of syllables or number of phonemes. Experiment 1 showed that infants discriminate 2 large sets of phonetically variable utterances composed of 2vs. 3-CY (consonant-vowel) syllables. Experiment 2 was run to assess whether infants discriminat...
متن کاملCategorical perception of nonspeech sounds by 2-month-old infants
According to recent investigations, adult listeners perceive rise-time differences in both speech and nonspeech stimuli in a categorical manner (Cutting &. Rosner, 1974). Adults labeled sawtooth-wave stimuli as either plucked or bowed. The present study uses the high-amplitude sucking technique to explore the 2-month·old infant's perception of rise-time differences for sawtooth stimuli. Infants...
متن کاملContext effects in two-month-old infants' perception of labiodental/interdental fricative contrasts.
We investigated 2-month-old infants' perception of a subset of highly confusable English fricatives. In Experiment 1, infants discriminated modified natural tokens of the voiceless fricative pair [fa]/[oa] but only when the syllables included their frication noises. They also discriminated the voiced pair [va]/[oa] both with and without fricative noises. These results parallel those found with ...
متن کاملPerception of moving, sounding objects by four-month-old infants.
Infants and adults were presented with two moving objects accompanied by a single percussive sound. In different experiments, the sound occurred when one object moved through a particular spatial position, when it abruptly changed its direction of movement, or when it made contact with a rigid surface. Infants responded to the sound-object relationship whenever the sound occurred as the object ...
