Lexical stress representation in spoken word recognition
Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2021 According to a popular model of speech production, stress is underspecified in the lexicon, that is, it is specified only for words with stress patterns other than the default, termed the “default metrics” assumption. Alternatively, stress may be fully specified in the lexicon as part of every lexical representation.

Rhythmic Categories in Spoken-Word Recognition [PDF]
Journal of Memory and Language, 2002 Rhythmic categories such as morae in Japanese or stress units in English play a role in the perception of spoken language. We examined this role in Japanese, since recent evidence suggests that morae may intervene as structural units in word recognition.

Morphosemantic activation of opaque Chinese words in sentence comprehension.
PLoS ONE, 2020 Two cross-modal priming experiments were conducted to investigate morphological processing in Chinese spoken word recognition during sentence comprehension. Participants heard sentences that contained opaque prime words and performed lexical decisions on

Laboratory Phonology, 2017 When hearing speech, listeners begin recognizing words before reaching the end of the word. Therefore, early sounds impact spoken word recognition before sounds later in the word. In languages like English, most morphophonological alternations affect the

Speaker sex influences processing of grammatical gender. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Spoken words carry linguistic and indexical information to listeners. Abstractionist models of spoken word recognition suggest that indexical information is stripped away in a process called normalization to allow processing of the linguistic message to ...

Auditory word recognition of verbs: Effects of verb argument structure on referent identification. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Word recognition includes the activation of a range of syntactic and semantic knowledge that is relevant to language interpretation and reference. Here we explored whether or not the number of arguments a verb takes impinges negatively on verb processing

An eye movement corpus study of the age-of-acquisition effect [PDF]
, 2017 In the present study, we investigated the effects of word-level age of acquisition (AoA) on natural reading. Previous studies, using multiple language modalities, showed that earlier-learned words are recognized, read, spoken, and responded to faster ...

Orthographic influences when processing spoken pseudowords: Theoretical implications
Frontiers in Psychology, 2011 When we hear an utterance, is the orthographic representation of that utterance activated when it is being processed? Orthographic influences have been previously examined in relation to spoken pseudoword processing in three different paradigms.
