The direction of word stress processing in German: Evidence from a working memory paradigm
Frontiers in Psychology, 2014 There are contradicting assumptions and findings on the direction of word stress processing in German. To resolve this question, we asked participants to read tri-syllabic nonwords and stress ambiguous words aloud.

Cracking the social code of speech prosody using reverse correlation [PDF]
, 2018 Human listeners excel at forming high-level social representations about each other, even from the briefest of utterances. In particular, pitch is widely recognized as the auditory dimension that conveys most of the information about a speaker's traits ...

Orthographic Syllable as basic unit for SMT between Related Languages [PDF]
Conference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing, 2016 We explore the use of the orthographic syllable, a variable-length consonant-vowel sequence, as a basic unit of translation between related languages which use abugida or alphabetic scripts.

Neurobehavioral Assessment of Sensorimotor Function in Autism Using Smartphone Technology
Autism Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Differences in sensorimotor processing represent an important, yet underrecognized, feature of autism; typically assessed through subjective observations, which, although important, are susceptible to biases. To complement these observations, a more objective approach to assess sensorimotor function may be possible through reflex‐based ...

What Makes Lexical Tone Special: A Reverse Accessing Model for Tonal Speech Perception
Frontiers in Psychology, 2019 Previous studies of tonal speech perception have generally suggested harder or later access to lexical tone than segmental information, but the mechanism underlying the lexical tone disadvantage is unclear. Using a speeded discrimination paradigm free of

Syntactic structure and artificial grammar learning : The learnability of embedded hierarchical structures [PDF]
, 2008 Embedded hierarchical structures, such as ‘‘the rat the cat ate was brown’’, constitute a core generative property of a natural language theory. Several recent studies have reported learning of hierarchical embeddings in artificial grammar learning (AGL)
