Examining the Association between T-unit and Pausing Length on the EFL Perception of Listening Comprehension
Listening taking over half of the learners’ time and effort (Nunan, 1998), forms a basis for acquiring much of a language. There are factors affecting listening comprehension and its perception, such as the speech rate, phonological properties of the text, the quality of the recording, the learners’ anxiety, and listening comprehension strategies (Goh, 2000; Hamouda, 2013). At the Iran Language...
متن کاملNon-native speech perception in adverse conditions: A review
If listening in adverse conditions is hard, then listening in a foreign language is doubly so: non-native listeners have to cope with both imperfect signals and imperfect knowledge. Comparison of native and non-native listener performance in speech-in-noise tasks helps to clarify the role of prior linguistic experience in speech perception, and, more directly, contributes to an understanding of...
متن کاملThe brain dynamics of rapid perceptual adaptation to adverse listening conditions.
Listeners show a remarkable ability to quickly adjust to degraded speech input. Here, we aimed to identify the neural mechanisms of such short-term perceptual adaptation. In a sparse-sampling, cardiac-gated functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) acquisition, human listeners heard and repeated back 4-band-vocoded sentences (in which the temporal envelope of the acoustic signal is preserved...
متن کاملLarge-Scale Cortical Functional Organization and Speech Perception across the Lifespan
Aging is accompanied by substantial changes in brain function, including functional reorganization of large-scale brain networks. Such differences in network architecture have been reported both at rest and during cognitive task performance, but an open question is whether these age-related differences show task-dependent effects or represent only task-independent changes attributable to a comm...
متن کاملClear Speech Strategies and Speech Perception in Adverse Listening Conditions
The study investigated the impact of different types of clear speech on speech perception in an adverse listening condition. Tokens were extracted from spontaneous speech dialogues in which participants completed a problem-solving task in good listening conditions or while experiencing a one-sided ‘communication barrier’: a real-time vocoder or multibabble noise. These two adverse conditions in...
