Talker and Acoustic Variability in Learning to Produce Nonnative Sounds: Evidence from Articulatory Training
(Language Learning, 2019)
Compared to low‐variability training, high‐variability training leads to better learning outcomes and supports generalization of learning. However, it is unclear whether the learning advantage is driven by multiple talkers ...

Neural substrates of subphonemic variation and lexical competition in spoken word recognition
(Language, Cognition and Neuroscience, 2019)
In spoken word recognition, subphonemic variation influences lexical activation, with sounds near a category boundary increasing phonetic competition as well as lexical competition. The current study investigated the ...
How much do visual cues help listeners in perceiving accented speech?
(Applied Psycholinguistics, 2019)
It has been documented that lipreading facilitates the understanding of difficult speech, such as noisy speech and time-compressed speech. However, relatively little work has addressed the role of visual information in ...
Does letter rotation slow down orthographic processing in word recognition?
(Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2018)
Leading neural models of visual word recognition assume that letter rotation slows down the conversion of the visual input to a stable orthographic representation (e.g., local detectors combination model; Dehaene, Cohen, ...
Differential brain-to-brain entrainment while speaking and listening in native and foreign languages
(cortex, 2019)
The study explores interbrain neural coupling when interlocutors engage in a conversation whether it be in their native or nonnative language. To this end, electroencephalographic hyperscanning was used to study brain-to-brain ...
Processing Sentences With Multiple Negations: Grammatical Structures That Are Perceived as Unacceptable
(Frontiers in Psychology, 2019)
This investigation draws from research on negative polarity item (NPI) illusions in order to explore a new and interesting instance of misalignment observed for grammatical sentences containing two negative markers. Previous ...
Not all errors are the same: ERP sensitivity to error typicality in foreign accented speech perception
(Cortex, 2019)
Intercultural communication has become more and more frequent in the recent globalized
society.When native listeners try to understand non-native speakers, they have to deal with
different types of grammatical errors, ...
The effect of speech rhythm and speaking rate on assessment of pronunciation in a second language
(Applied Psycholinguistics, 2019)
The study explores the effect of deviations from native speech rhythm and rate norms on the assessement of pronunciation mastery of a second language (L2) when the native language of the learner is either rhythmically ...
The Role of Native Language and the Fundamental Design of the Auditory System in Detecting Rhythm Changes
(Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing, 2019)
Purpose: We investigated whether rhythm discrimination
is mainly driven by the native language of the listener or
by the fundamental design of the human auditory system
and universal cognitive mechanisms shared by all ...
