Ideology, Awareness, and Sociophonetic Perception in Asian American and Canadian Speech
Direct linkDirect link
Lauretta S. P. Cheng – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Social information is cognitively linked to linguistic information, evidenced by bidirectional influences on perceptual processing of speech. Models of sociophonetic cognition theorize that the way linguistic experiences are interpreted and stored in memory is mediated by listener attention, which is guided by ideology. This relationship, however,…

Yi-Jui I. Chen; Yi-Jhen Wu; Yi-Hsin Chen; Robin Irey – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2025
A short form of the 60-item computer-based orthographic processing assessment (long-form COPA or COPA-LF) was developed. The COPA-LF consists of five skills, including rapid perception, access, differentiation, correction, and arrangement. Thirty items from the COPA-LF were selected for the short-form COPA (COPA-SF) based on cognitive diagnostic…

Efficacy of Clustering and Switching Strategies in Verbal Fluency Tasks in a Finnish-English Language Attrition Population
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Nana Lehtinen; Anna Kautto; Kati Renvall – Language Learning Journal, 2024
Verbal Fluency (VF) task total scores are widely used in language attrition studies, but they do not provide insight into the processes underlying optimal performance. We analyse the efficacy of clustering (subcategories within a category) and switching (shifting between these subcategories) strategies in phonemic (PVF) and semantic (SVF) tasks.…

The Source of the "That"-Trace Effect: New Evidence from L2 English
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Boyoung Kim; Grant Goodall – Second Language Research, 2024
Recent approaches to the "that"-trace phenomenon in English include syntactic analyses based on the principle of Anti-locality and a sentence production analysis based on the Principle of End Weight. These analyses have many similarities, but they differ in their predictions for second language (L2) speakers. In an Anti-locality…

Towards Inclusive Low-Resource Speech Technologies: A Case Study of Educational Systems for African American English-Speaking Children
Direct linkDirect link
Alexander Johnson – ProQuest LLC, 2024
The potential of speech technology to improve educational outcomes has been a topic of great interest in recent years. For example, automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems could be employed to provide kindergarten-aged children with real-time feedback on their literacy and pronunciation as they practice reading aloud. Within these systems,…
