Frontiers in Psychology, 2020 A number of studies have shown that phonetic peculiarities, especially at the coarticulation level, exist in the disfluent as well as in the perceptively fluent speech of people who stutter (PWS).

Laboratory Phonology, 2023 Coarticulation is an important source of new phonological contrasts. When speakers interpret effects such as nasalization, glottalization, and rhoticization as an inherent property of a vowel, a new phonological contrast is born.

On the development of gestural organization: A cross-sectional study of vowel-to-vowel anticipatory coarticulation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 In the first years of life, children differ greatly from adults in the temporal organization of their speech gestures in fluent language production. However, dissent remains as to the maturational direction of such organization.

A network model of referent identification by toddlers in a visual world task
Child Development, Volume 94, Issue 6, Page 1511-1530, November/December 2023., 2023 Abstract We present a neural network model of referent identification in a visual world task. Inputs are visual representations of item pairs unfolding with sequences of phonemes identifying the target item. The model is trained to output the semantic representation of the target and to suppress the distractor.

Lexically Mediated Compensation for Coarticulation Still as Elusive as a White Christmash
Cognitive Science, Volume 47, Issue 9, September 2023., 2023 Abstract Luthra, Peraza‐Santiago, Beeson, Saltzman, Crinnion, and Magnuson (2021) present data from the lexically mediated compensation for coarticulation paradigm that they claim provides conclusive evidence in favor of top‐down processing in speech perception. We argue here that this evidence does not support that conclusion. The findings are open to

Variation in the production of nasal coarticulation by speaker age and speech style [PDF]
JASA Express LettersThis study investigates apparent-time variation in the production of anticipatory nasal coarticulation in California English. Productions of consonant-vowel-nasal words in clear vs casual speech by 58 speakers aged 18–58 (grouped into three generations ...

Speech characteristics of monozygotic twins and a same-sex sibling: an acoustic case study of coarticulation patterns in read speech [PDF]
, 2003 This case study reports on an acoustic investigation of the motor speech characteristics of a set of young adult male monozygotic (MZ) twins and compares them to those of an age- and sex-matched sibling who participated in the study 2 years later to ...

CLASSIC Utterance Boundary: A Chunking‐Based Model of Early Naturalistic Word Segmentation
Language Learning, Volume 73, Issue 3, Page 942-975, September 2023., 2023 Abstract Word segmentation is a crucial step in children's vocabulary learning. While computational models of word segmentation can capture infants’ performance in small‐scale artificial tasks, the examination of early word segmentation in naturalistic settings has been limited by the lack of measures that can relate models’ performance to ...

The gradient influence of temporal extent of coarticulation on vowel and speaker perception
Laboratory Phonology, 2018 Coarticulation makes vowels in context acoustically different from context-free vowels. Listeners sometimes compensate by ascribing these acoustic effects to their source, but the conditions under which they do so have not yet been fully pinpointed ...

Speaking Rate Effects on Locus Equation Slope [PDF]
, 2013 A locus equation describes a 1st order regression fit to a scatter of vowel steady-state frequency values predicting vowel onset frequency values. Locus equation coefficients are often interpreted as indices of coarticulation.
