Independent Effects of Age, Education, Verbal Working Memory, Motor Speed of Processing, Locality, and Morphosyntactic Category on Verb‐Related Morphosyntactic Production: Evidence From Healthy Aging

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the role of locality (a task/material‐related variable), demographic factors (age, education, and sex), cognitive capacities (verbal working memory [WM], verbal short‐term memory [STM], speed of processing [SOP], and inhibition), and morphosyntactic category (time reference and grammatical aspect) in verb‐related ...

The Organization of Constraints on Phonological Speech Errors [PDF]

, 1987
The intrinsic and extrinsic constraints are taken into account in the analysis of 455 consonantal errors - part of a corpus containing about 1500 Italian lapses. Parameters governing both types of constraints, and the hierarchical organization of the extrinsic ones are discussed. Our results provide evidence for some phonological properties of Italian.

An acoustic study on monophthongs in Central Australian Aboriginal English

World Englishes, EarlyView.
Abstract We present an acoustic analysis of monophthongal vowel production in Central Australian Aboriginal English (CAAE), providing one of the first systematic examinations of this variety spoken by English‐as‐a‐first‐language (L1) speakers in Mparntwe/Alice Springs, Australia.

A context‐based English Medium Instruction professional development programme for Turkish EMI lecturers: Insights from a grounded design study

Review of Education, Volume 14, Issue 2, August 2026.
Abstract English Medium Instruction (EMI) has rapidly become an important part of higher education in many countries around the world. While the number of EMI programmes and institutions has increased, professional development programme (PDP) opportunities for EMI lecturers and their effectiveness are not yet well designed or closely aligned with local

Eye movements of children with and without developmental dyslexia in an alphabetic script during alphabetic and logographic tasks

Scientific Reports
Eye movements (EM) during naming alphabetic versus logographic stimuli in children with and without developmental dyslexia (DD) were examined for each stimulus separately to identify conspicuous characteristics that influence naming performance.

Hemodynamic Responses to Word Forms in Japanese Infant‐Directed Vocabulary in 5‐ and 9‐Month‐Old Infants: Early Sensitivity to Prosodic Structure and Emergence of Prosodic Representations

Developmental Science, Volume 29, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The prosodic characteristics of a native language greatly influence early language acquisition. Yet, Japanese mothers are known to use a specific prosodic structure in infant‐directed vocabulary (IDV)—specifically, three‐mora, two‐syllable words with a heavy‐light pattern—which, crucially, differs from the standard prosodic rhythm of adult ...

Newborns' Language Discrimination May Not Reflect Sensitivity to Speech Rhythm: Evidence From Computational Modeling

Developmental Science, Volume 29, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Human newborns are able to discriminate between certain languages but not others. This ability has long been attributed to sensitivity to rhythm—the temporal regularities in speech of different languages. Here, we demonstrate through a series of computational simulations that this discrimination behavior can be achieved using no temporal ...

Segmental Phonological Errors of Indigenous Learners of English

Journal of Education and Academic Settings
The acquisition of English pronunciation among indigenous learners poses unique linguistic and cognitive challenges due to structural differences between English and indigenous phonological systems. Although studies on second language phonology have explored pronunciation errors across diverse learner groups, a notable research gap remains in ...
