Word-Initial Letters Influence Fixation Durations during Fluent Reading
The present study examined how word-initial letters influence lexical access during reading. Eye movements were monitored as participants read sentences containing target words. Three factors were independently manipulated. First, target words had either high or low constraining word-initial letter sequences (e.g., dwarf or clown, respectively). Second, targets were either high or low in freque...
متن کاملThe effect of visual information on word initial consonant perception of dysarthric speech
Disabled individuals will realize many benefits from automatic speech recognition. To date, most automatic speech recognition research has focused on normal speech. However, many individuals with physical disabilities also exhibit speech disorders. While limited research has been conducted focusing on dysarthric speech recognition, the preliminary results indicate that additional study is neces...
متن کاملConsonant-vowel cohesiveness in speech production as revealed by initial and final consonant exchanges
Two experiments use a procedure developed by Carter and Bradshaw (1984) to examine the role of syllable structure in speech production. In the procedure, subjects exchange phonological segments in corresponding positions of a pair of visuallypresented words or nonwords and to produce the resulting words or nonwords as quickly as possible. Carter and Bradshaw had shown that the pattern of latenc...
متن کاملSubstitution errors in the production of word-initial and word-final consonant clusters.
PURPOSE This study provides a comprehensive examination of substitutions that occur at Greenlee's 3rd stage of cluster development (M. Greenlee, 1974). At this stage of cluster acquisition, children are able to produce the correct number of consonants but with 1 or more of these consonants being substituted for another. METHOD Participants were 11 typically developing children ages 1;5-2;7 (y...
متن کاملAsymmetries in the acquisition of word-initial and word-final consonant clusters.
Previous work on the acquisition of consonant clusters points to a tendency for word-final clusters to be acquired before word-initial clusters (Templin, 1957; Lleó & Prinz, 1996; Levelt, Schiller & Levelt, 2000). This paper evaluates possible structural, morphological, frequency-based, and articulatory explanations for this asymmetry using a picture identification task with 12 English-speaking...
