Abstract:An experiment was devised to test whether compensation for coarticulation could be motivated by nonspeech for which gestural recovery is impossible. Subjects were presented with CV stimuli formed by concatenating an /s ~ ∫/ continuum fricative with an /i/ or /o/ from three types of synthesized vocalic nuclei: full spectral vowels (Set A), vowels with F2 but no other formants (B), and pure sine tones at F2 (C). F2 was chosen as the common parameter between sets because extremely high or low F2 is enough informa… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
