Categorical perception (CP) is likely the single finding from speech perception with the
biggest impact on cognitive science. However, within speech perception, it is widely known …

Speech sound contrasts differ along multiple phonetic dimensions. During speech
perception, listeners must decide which cues are relevant, and determine the relative …

Acoustic and phonemic processing are understudied in aphasia, a language disorder that
can affect different levels and modalities of language processing. For successful speech …

This study examined individual differences in categorical perception and the use of multiple
acoustic cues in the perception of the stop voicing contrast. Goals were to investigate …

The development of the ability to categorize speech sounds is often viewed as occurring
primarily during infancy via perceptual learning mechanisms. However, a number of studies …

Research on speech categorization and phoneme recognition has relied heavily on tasks in
which participants listen to stimuli from a speech continuum and are asked to either classify …

Listeners activate speech-sound categories in a gradient way, and this information is
maintained and affects activation of items at higher levels of processing (McMurray et al …

Voice onset time (VOT) is an acoustic property of stop consonants that is commonly
manipulated in studies of phonetic perception. This paper contains a thorough description of …

For much of its history, categorical perception was treated as a foundational theory of
speech perception, which suggested that quasi-discrete categorization was a goal of speech …
