“…For example, using Anderson's (1970) functional measurement approach, Massaro and Oden (1980) concluded that voicing cues based on VOT are extracted independently of those based on formant transitions. As another example, listening to voiceless adapters produces measurable effects on produced VOT, but listening to voiced adapters does not (Cooper, 1979; Jamieson & Cheesman, in press). Thus, the effects of voiceless adapters appear to occur at a central level common to both production and perception.…”

Voiced (/ba/ or /da/) and voiceless (/pa/ or /ta/) consonants seem to affect different auditory system loci. On a voice-onset-time continuum (/ba/ to /pa/ or /da/ to /ta/) the selective adaptation effects produced by voiceless consonants are largely ear-independent and endure over delays of at least 1 min. However, voiced adapters produce selective adaptation effects that are highly ear-specific and relatively short-lived (less than 15 s). These differences suggest that specific cues to voiced and voiceless consonant sounds are processed by distinct auditory mechanisms and that these processes occur at different levels of the auditory system. One mechanism, which processes cues to voiced consonants, is peripheral and ear-specific. The second mechanism, which processes cues to voiceless consonants, is central and ear-independent.

“…During the same period, studies on selective adaptation also provided evidence for dynamic links between motor and perceptual representations (see e.g. [20,21,22]). More recently, a series of studies by Perkell and colleagues showed how perceptual abilities can shape production strategies for vowels [23] or fricatives [24], and can adapt to feedback perturbation [25].…”

This paper reports on the organization of the perceived vowel space in French. In a previous paper [28], we investigated the implementation of vocal height contrasts along the F1 dimension in French speakers. In this paper, we present results from perceptual identification tests performed by twelve participants who took part in the production experiment reported in the earlier paper. For each subject, stimuli presented in the identification test were synthesized in two different vowel spaces, corresponding to two different vocal tract lengths. The results showed that first, the perceived French vowels belonging to similar height degrees were aligned on stable F1 values, independent of place of articulation and roundedness, as was the case for produced vowels. Second, the produced F1 distances between height degrees correlated with the perceived F1 distances.This suggests that there is a link between perceptual and motor phonemic prototypes in the human brain. The results are discussed using the framework of the Perception for Action Control (PACT) theory, in which speech units are considered to be gestures shaped by perceptual processes.
