Andrey Vyshedskiy; Rohan Venkatesh; Edward Khokhlovich; Deniz Satik – npj Science of Learning, 2024
Analysis of linguistic abilities that are concurrently impaired in individuals with language deficits allows identification of a shared underlying mechanism. If any two linguistic abilities are mediated by the same underlying mechanism, then both abilities will be absent if this mechanism is broken. Clustering techniques automatically arrange…

de Beer, Carola; Hofmann, Andrea; Regenbrecht, Frank; Huttenlauch, Clara; Wartenburger, Isabell; Obrig, Hellmuth; Hanne, Sandra – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: Persons with unilateral brain damage in the right hemisphere (RH) or left hemisphere (LH) show limitations in processing linguistic prosody, with yet inconclusive results on their ability to process prosodically marked structural boundaries for syntactic ambiguity resolution. We aimed at systematically investigating production and…

Shao, Yujie; Saito, Kazuya; Tierney, Adam – TESOL Quarterly: A Journal for Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages and of Standard English as a Second Dialect, 2023
Growing evidence suggests that auditory processing ability may be a crucial determinant of language learning, including adult second language (L2) speech learning. The current study tested 47 Chinese English-as-a-Foreign-Language students to examine the extent to which two types of auditory processing, i.e., perceptual acuity and audio-motor…

Winn, Matthew B.; Teece, Katherine H. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: Speech recognition percent correct scores fail to capture the effort of mentally repairing the perception of speech that was initially misheard. This study measured the effort of listening to stimuli specifically designed to elicit mental repair in adults who use cochlear implants (CIs). Method: CI listeners heard and repeated sentences…

Developing Interpreter Trainees' Speech Comprehensibility: Does Nativeness of the Instructor Matter?
Mahmood Yenkimaleki; Vincent J. van Heuven – TESL-EJ, 2024
This study examines the effect of native "vs." non-native prosody instruction on developing interpreter trainees' speech comprehensibility in English as a foreign language (EFL) using a pretest-posttest-delayed posttest design. Twenty-three groups of 28 interpreter trainees at a University in Iran (six different branches) took part in…

Audiovisual Speech Processing in Relationship to Phonological and Vocabulary Skills in First Graders
Gijbels, Liesbeth; Yeatman, Jason D.; Lalonde, Kaylah; Lee, Adrian K. C. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: It is generally accepted that adults use visual cues to improve speech intelligibility in noisy environments, but findings regarding visual speech benefit in children are mixed. We explored factors that contribute to audiovisual (AV) gain in young children's speech understanding. We examined whether there is an AV benefit to…

Dragojevic, Marko; Goatley-Soan, Sean – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2022
This study examined Americans' attitudes toward standard American English (SAE) and nine, non-Anglo foreign accents: Arabic, Farsi, French, German, Hindi, Hispanic, Mandarin, Russian, and Vietnamese. Compared to SAE speakers, all foreign-accented speakers were rated as harder to understand, more likely to be categorised as foreign (rather than…

Saito, Kazuya; Liu, Yuwei – Second Language Research, 2022
There is emerging evidence that collocation use plays a primary role in determining various dimensions of L2 oral proficiency assessment and development. The current study presents the results of three experiments which examined the relationship between the degree of association in collocation use (operationalized as t scores and mutual…
