Dynamics of Functional Networks for Syllable and Word-Level Processing

Neurobiology of Language, 2023
Speech comprehension requires the ability to temporally segment the acoustic input for higher-level linguistic analysis. Oscillation-based approaches suggest that low-frequency auditory cortex oscillations track syllable-sized acoustic information and ...

P3b reflects periodicity in linguistic sequences [PDF]

, 2012
Temporal predictability is thought to affect stimulus processing by facilitating the allocation of attentional resources. Recent studies have shown that periodicity of a tonal sequence results in a decreased peak latency and a larger amplitude of the P3b

Georgian syllables uncentered

Speech Prosody 2022, 2022
Both sonority, via the Sonority Sequencing Principle (SSP), and timing, via the coupled oscillator model advanced within Articulatory Phonology (AP), have been invoked to define the syllable as a unit. Georgian presents challenges for both definitions. The irrelevance of the SSP for Georgian phonotactics is well documented, while it is unclear whether ...

The syllable as a prosodic unit in Japanese lexical strata: Evidence from text-setting

Glossa, 2017
Text-setting, the arrangement of language to music, is a common source of evidence in the debate over the relevance of the syllable in Japanese prosody (e.g., Labrune 2012).

Information theoretic syllable structure and its relation to the c-center effect [PDF]

, 2013
Established phonological theories postulate uniform syllable constituent structures. From a traditional hierarchical point of view, syllables are right branching implying a close connection between the nucleus and the coda.

Lexicality and frequency in specific language impairment: accuracy and error data from two nonword repetition tests [PDF]

, 2010
Purpose: Deficits in phonological working memory and deficits in phonological processing have both been considered potential explanatory factors in Specific Language Impairment (SLI).
