Exploring Children’s Ability to Categorize and Symbolize
Cartographers categorize the features to be mapped according to their dimensions (i.e. point, linear, area) and according to their qualitative and quantitative inherent characteristics. This classification is crucial for the selection of the symbols. But are cartographers aware of the way children conceptualize the geographical space? Do cartographers know the way children categorize things (it...
متن کاملEffects of Talker Gender on Dialect Categorization.
The identification of the gender of an unfamiliar talker is an easy and automatic process for naïve adult listeners. Sociolinguistic research has consistently revealed gender differences in the production of linguistic variables. Research on the perception of dialect variation, however, has been limited almost exclusively to male talkers. In the present study, naïve participants were asked to c...
متن کاملTalker Versus Dialect Effects on Speech Intelligibility: A Symmetrical Study.
This study investigates the relative effects of talker-specific variation and dialect-based variation on speech intelligibility. Listeners from two dialects of American English performed speech-in-noise tasks with sentences spoken by talkers of each dialect. An initial statistical model showed no significant effects for either talker or listener dialect group, and no interaction. However, a mix...
متن کاملGeneral Language Ability Predicts Talker Identification
Individuals can use both linguistic and non-linguistic features of the speech signal to identify talkers. For instance, listeners have more difficulty identifying talkers in unfamiliar languages compared to a native language (language familiarity effect), implying that language-specific knowledge aids talker identification. In the present study, the source of the language familiarity benefit on...
متن کاملToddlers' ability to map the meaning of new words in multi-talker environments.
Whether in a noisy daycare center, home, or classroom, many of the environments children are exposed to are, undoubtedly, not acoustically ideal for speech processing. Yet, somehow, these toddlers are still able to acquire vocabularies consisting of hundreds of words. The current study explores the effect of background speech noise on children's early word learning (specifically, their ability ...
