Cognitive processes underlying spoken word recognition during soft speech.

Cognition, 2020
In two eye-tracking experiments using the Visual World Paradigm, we examined how listeners recognize words when faced with speech at lower intensities (40, 50, and 65 dBA).

Three-year-old tone language learners are tolerant of tone mispronunciations spoken with familiar and novel tones

Cogent Psychology, 2019
An important issue in language acquisition is understanding the function of suprasegmental information (e.g., tones) in spoken word recognition. Recent research found that three-year-old monolingual Mandarin learners recognized Mandarin words that were ...

Confusion2Vec 2.0: Enriching ambiguous spoken language representations with subwords.

PLoS ONE, 2022
Word vector representations enable machines to encode human language for spoken language understanding and processing. Confusion2vec, motivated from human speech production and perception, is a word vector representation which encodes ambiguities present

Spoken word classification in children and adults [PDF]

, 2011
Purpose: Preschool children often have difficulties in word classification, despite good speech perception and production. Some researchers suggest they represent words using phonetic features rather than phonemes.

Lexical representation and processing of word-initial morphological alternations: Scottish Gaelic mutation

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

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

Phonological representations at the onset of reading acquisition: Steady use of phonological detail from preschool to 2nd grade

Language Development Research
We tracked the developmental path of aspects of spoken word recognition in the beginning years of reading acquisition in German L1 speaking children. Speech processing of phonemic detail in voicing was tested in preschool, in the 1st and in the 2nd grade.

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 ...

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.
