The basic timescales governing animal life are generally determined by body size. Pauses in naturally occurring human speech were investigated to determine if pause timescales are also sensitive to body size. Reported is an analysis of pause duration allometry in recorded interviews of 61 athletes. Pauses were divided into three classes based on…

Fuhrmeister, Pamela; Phillips, Matthew C.; McCoach, D. Betsy; Myers, Emily B. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
Individuals differ in their ability to perceive and learn unfamiliar speech sounds, but we lack a comprehensive theoretical account that predicts individual differences in this skill. Predominant theories largely attribute difficulties of non-native speech perception to the relationships between non-native speech sounds/contrasts and…

Holmes, Emma; Johnsrude, Ingrid S. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2020
Understanding speech in adverse conditions is affected by experience--a familiar voice is substantially more intelligible than an unfamiliar voice when competing speech is present, even if the content of the speech (the words) are controlled. This familiar-voice benefit is observed consistently, but its underpinnings are unclear: Do familiar…

Maslowski, Merel; Meyer, Antje S.; Bosker, Hans Rutger – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2019
Listeners are known to track statistical regularities in speech. Yet, which temporal cues are encoded is unclear. This study tested effects of talker-specific habitual speech rate and talker-independent average speech rate (heard over a longer period of time) on the perception of the temporal Dutch vowel contrast /?/-/a:/. First, Experiment 1…

Pajak, Bozena; Creel, Sarah C.; Levy, Roger – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2016
How are languages learned, and to what extent are learning mechanisms similar in infant native-language (L1) and adult second-language (L2) acquisition? In terms of vocabulary acquisition, we know from the infant literature that the ability to discriminate similar-sounding words at a particular age does not guarantee successful word-meaning…

Rastle, Kathleen; McCormick, Samantha F.; Bayliss, Linda; Davis, Colin J. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2011
One intriguing question in language research concerns the extent to which orthographic information impacts on spoken word processing. Previous research has faced a number of methodological difficulties and has not reached a definitive conclusion. Our research addresses these difficulties by capitalizing on recent developments in the area of word…
