“…This transformation process persists throughout the repetition procedure, leading to perceptual transitions from one speech form to another. Although verbal transformations have mainly been studied as a purely acoustical/auditory effect (e.g., MacKay, Wulf, Yin, & Abrams, 1993;Pitt & Shoaf, 2001Warren, 1961), it has been shown that the effect occurs not only during a purely auditory procedure but also during an overt or covert repetition procedure (Reisberg, Smith, Baxter, & Sonenshine, 1989;Sato, Schwartz, Abry, Cathiard, & Loevenbruck, 2006;Smith, Reisberg, & Wilson, 1995).…”
