On the invariance of speech percepts

open access: yesZAS Papers in Linguistics, 2005
A fundamental question in the study of speech is about the invariance of the ultimate percepts, or features. The present paper gives an overview of the noninvariance problem and offers some hints towards a solution. Examination of various data on place and voicing perception suggests the following points.
