Independence of lexical context and phonological information in speech perception.
M. A. Pitt (1995a) studied the joint influence of phonological information and lexical context in W. F. Ganong's (1980) task. Pitt improved on earlier studies by collecting enough observations to make possible the quantitative analyses of an individual's data. The present article shows that the results of such analyses demonstrate that the integration of phonological information and lexical con...
متن کاملThe perception of Spanish lexical stress by French speakers: stress identification and time cost
The perception of lexical stress in Spanish by French speakers with and without knowledge of the language has been studied with a technique allowing the evaluation of the individual or combined effects of the acoustic parameters related to the perception of stress. Results suggest in first place that the exposure to L2 makes the French speakers more sensitive to stress. Secondly, although F0 se...
متن کاملCan Birds Perceive Rhythmic Patterns? A Review and Experiments on a Songbird and a Parrot Species
While humans can easily entrain their behavior with the beat in music, this ability is rare among animals. Yet, comparative studies in non-human species are needed if we want to understand how and why this ability evolved. Entrainment requires two abilities: (1) recognizing the regularity in the auditory stimulus and (2) the ability to adjust the own motor output to the perceived pattern. It ha...
متن کاملLexical Storage and Phonological Change
Empirical investigations of the division of labour between storage and computation in language behaviour can be executed in a number of ways. An obvious one is that of psycholinguistic experimentation. Another way, which will be focused on in this paper, is language change: language change is a psycholinguistic laboratory of nature, a window on how speakers produce and interpret language. For e...
متن کاملProduction of English Lexical Stress by Persian EFL Learners
This study examines the phonetic properties of lexical stress in English produced by Persian speakers learning English as a foreign language. The four most reliable phonetic correlates of English lexical stress, namely fundamental frequency, duration, intensity, and vowel quality were measured across Persian speakers’ production of the stressed and unstressed syllables of five English disyllabi...
