Metrical expectations from preceding prosody influence spoken word recognition
Two visual world experiments tested the hypothesis that expectations based on preceding prosody influence the perception of suprasegmental cues to lexical stress. Experiment 1 showed that phonemically overlapping words with different initial stress patterns compete for recognition. Experiment 2 further demonstrated that fundamental frequency and syllable timing patterns across material precedin...
متن کاملRunning head: PRECEDING PROSODY INFLUENCES LEXICAL INTERPRETATION Expectations from preceding prosody influence segmentation in online sentence processing
Previous work examining prosodic cues in online spoken-word recognition has focused primarily on local cues to word identity. However, recent studies have suggested that utterance-level prosodic patterns can also influence the interpretation of subsequent sequences of lexically ambiguous syllables (Dilley & McAuley, 2008; Dilley, Mattys, & Vinke, 2010). To test the hypothesis that these distal ...
متن کاملStress Matters: Effects of Anticipated Lexical Stress on Silent Reading.
This paper presents findings from two eye-tracking studies designed to investigate the role of metrical prosody in silent reading. In Experiment 1, participants read stress-alternating noun-verb or noun-adjective homographs (e.g. PREsent, preSENT) embedded in limericks, such that the lexical stress of the homograph, as determined by context, either matched or mismatched the metrical pattern of ...

متن کاملRhythm and meter in spoken-word perception 1 Running head: RHYTHM AND METER IN SPOKEN-WORD PERCEPTION Rhythmic regularity and metrical expectancy in spoken-word perception
Certain types of speech, e.g. lists of words or numbers, are usually spoken with a clear speech rhythm. Salient, stressed vowels are aligned to rhythmic points within the phrase period. The main hypothesis of this study (derived from the Dynamic Attending Theory; M.R. Jones (1976), Psych. Rev. 83, 323–355) is that listeners attend in particular to speech events at these rhythmic time points. Be...
