Leading Up the Lexical Garden Path: Segmentation and Ambiguity in Spoken Word Recognition
Two gating studies, a forced-choice identification study and 2 series of cross-modal repetition priming experiments, traced the time course of recognition of words with onset embeddings (captain) and short words in contexts that match (cap tucked) or mismatch (cap looking) with longer words. Results suggest that acoustic differences in embedded syllables assist the perceptual system in discrimi...
متن کاملLexical Segmentation in Spoken Word Recognition
This thesis examines an important issue in spoken word recognition; how the perceptual system segments connected speech into lexical units or words. Research on this topic has investigated the role of different sources of information in dividing up the speech stream: acoustic cues in the speech signal, statistical regularities in the structure of the language or through the identification of in...
متن کاملLexical Ambiguity and Context Effects in Spoken Word Recognition: Evidence from Chinese
Chinese is a language that is extensively ambiguous on a lexical-morphemic level. In this study, we examined the effects of prior context, frequency, and density of a homophone on spoken word recognition of Chinese homophones in a cross-modal experiment. Results indicate that prior context affects the access of the appropriate meaning from early on, and that context interacts with frequency of ...
متن کاملCompetition and segmentation in spoken word recognition
Spoken utterances contain few reliable cues to word boundaries, but listeners nonetheless experience little difficulty identifying words in continuous speech. The authors present data and simulations that suggest that this ability is best accounted for by a model of spoken-word recognition combining competition between alternative lexical candidates, and sensitivity to prosodic structure. In a ...
