“…In production tasks, phonetic evidence of phonological contrast is taken to correspond to discreteness or discontinuity in imitation of continuous phonetic variation, e.g. f 0 maximum timing or F1-F2 values [Pierrehumbert and Steele, 1989;Viechnicki, 2002;Niebuhr, 2003;Redi, 2003;Niebuhr and Kohler, 2004;Dilley, 2005;Braun et al, 2006;Dilley, 2007]. In perception tasks, phonetic evidence of phonological contrast is typically taken to correspond to categorical perception, which corresponds to a maximum in discrimination and an s-shaped labeling function, given continuous phonetic variation [Liberman et al, 1957;Repp, 1984], but other kinds of perceptual tasks have also been taken to provide evidence relevant to evaluating phonologic representations [e.g., Gussenhoven and Rietveld, 2000].…”
