Eddolls, Morgan S.; Molis, Michelle R.; Reiss, Lina A. J. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: The effect of onset asynchrony on dichotic vowel segregation and identification in normal-hearing (NH) and hearing-impaired (HI) listeners was examined. We hypothesized that fusion would decrease and identification performance would improve with increasing onset asynchrony. Additionally, we hypothesized that HI listeners would gain more…

Marvin Lavechin; Maureen de Seyssel; Hadrien Titeux; Guillaume Wisniewski; Hervé Bredin; Alejandrina Cristia; Emmanuel Dupoux – Developmental Science, 2025
Before they even talk, infants become sensitive to the speech sounds of their native language and recognize the auditory form of an increasing number of words. Traditionally, these early perceptual changes are attributed to an emerging knowledge of linguistic categories such as phonemes or words. However, there is growing skepticism surrounding…

Ryan J. McGill; Stefan C. Dombrowski; Gary L. Canivez – Psychology in the Schools, 2025
The present study examined the posited structure of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children--Fifth Edition (WISC-V) ancillary index scores with normative sample participants aged 6-16 years (N = 2200) using a series of confirmatory factor analyzes (CFA) with maximum likelihood estimation. CFA results supported the retention of auditory…

Zahra Jafari; Hardeep Ryait; Mohammad Habibnezhad; Claire Niehaus; Erin Cantwell; Jordan Dudley; Bryan Kolb; Majid Mohajerani – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2025
Purpose: Previous studies have debated differences in spoken language processing between nonnative and native English speakers, often yielding varying and sometimes contradictory results. To address these discrepancies, we employed a comprehensive battery of tasks to compare auditory, speech, and memory processing between nonnative and native…

Kazuya Saito; Adam Tierney – Language Learning, 2025
This study expands on the practical application of the critical role of auditory processing in the rate of naturalistic L2 speech acquisition. In Study 1, the prosodic production of English by 46 Chinese college students was tracked over a five-month study abroad program in the UK. Learners with extensive L2 input opportunities demonstrated…

Maryn, Youri; Zarowski, Andrzej; Loomans, Natalie – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: To better understand hypernasality (HN), we explored the relations between velopharyngeal orifice, auditory perception of HN, and acoustic-spectral measures in an in vivo within-subject design: (1) with a normally functioning velum as the control condition; and (2) with a temporarily paralyzed velum as the experimental condition. Method:…

Alyssa Kermad – International Journal of Listening, 2024
Speech perception research has commonly relied on untrained listeners to provide impressionistic judgments of second language (L2) speech, and training listeners has been rare. The current study therefore explores the implications of training novice listeners (NLs) to rate accented speech. A total of 60 listeners were recruited, 30 who remained…

Casey L. Roark; Vishal Thakkar; Bharath Chandrasekaran; Tracy M. Centanni – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2024
Purpose: Developmental dyslexia is proposed to involve selective procedural memory deficits with intact declarative memory. Recent research in the domain of category learning has demonstrated that adults with dyslexia have selective deficits in Information-Integration (II) category learning that is proposed to rely on procedural learning…

Yunjung Kim; Austin Thompson; Ignatius S. B. Nip – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2024
Purpose: This study examined speech changes induced by deep-brain stimulation (DBS) in speakers with Parkinson's disease (PD) using a set of auditory-perceptual and acoustic measures. Method: Speech recordings from nine speakers with PD and DBS were compared between DBS-On and DBS-Off conditions using auditory-perceptual and acoustic analyses.…

Hao Zhang; Xuequn Dai; Wen Ma; Hongwei Ding; Yang Zhang – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2024
Purpose: This study builds upon an established effective training method to investigate the advantages of high variability phonetic identification training for enhancing lexical tone perception and production in Mandarin-speaking pediatric cochlear implant (CI) recipients, who typically face ongoing challenges in these areas. Method: Thirty-two…

Megumi Hisaizumi; Digby Tantam – Autism & Developmental Language Impairments, 2024
Background and aims: Fascinations for or aversions to particular sounds are a familiar feature of autism, as is an ability to reproduce another person's utterances, precisely copying the other person's prosody as well as their words. Such observations seem to indicate not only that autistic people can pay close attention to what they hear, but…

Schmuckler, Mark A.; Paolozza, Angelina – Developmental Psychology, 2023
Research on the multisensory control of locomotion has demonstrated that adults exhibit auditory-motor entrainment across an array of contexts. In such work adults will consciously modulate the cadence of their walking when instructed to match their footfalls to an auditory metronome equal to, slower than, or faster than, their natural walking…

L.; Edgar, J. Christopher – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Maturation of auditory cortex neural encoding processes was assessed in children with typical development (TD) and autism. Children 6-9 years old were enrolled at Time 1 (T1), with follow-up data obtained ~ 18 months later at Time 2 (T2), and ~ 36 months later at Time 3 (T3). Findings suggested an initial period of rapid auditory cortex maturation…

McCluskey, John D.; Uchida, Craig D. – Sociological Methods & Research, 2023
Video data analysis (VDA) represents an important methodological framework for contemporary research approaches to the myriad of footage available from cameras, devices, and phones. Footage from police body-worn cameras (BWCs) is anticipated to be a widely available platform for social science researchers to scrutinize the interactions between…

Park, Yeonggwang; Anand, Supraja; Gifford, Sophia M.; Shrivastav, Rahul; Eddins, David A. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2023
Purpose: Acoustic and perceptual quantification of vocal strain has been a vexing problem for years. To increase measurement rigor, a suitable single-variable matching stimulus for strain was developed and validated, based on the matching stimulus used previously for breathy and rough voice qualities. Method: A set of 21 comparison stimuli for a…
