Damm, Sara A.; Sis, Jenni L.; Kulkarni, Aditya M.; Chatterjee, Monita – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2019
Purpose: Cochlear implants (CIs) transmit a degraded version of the acoustic input to the listener. This impacts the perception of harmonic pitch, resulting in deficits in the perception of voice features critical to speech prosody. Such deficits may relate to changes in how children with CIs (CCIs) learn to produce vocal emotions. The purpose of…

Calloway, Regina Christine – ProQuest LLC, 2019
Readers read for different purposes and the texts they read vary in topic and difficulty. These situational factors influence standards of coherence--how much understanding a reader aims to have for a given text. Three studies examined whether individual differences in reader-based standards of coherence influenced off-line and on-line…

Goodman, Joshua; Hurwitz, Michael; Mulhern, Christine; Smith, Jonathan – National Bureau of Economic Research, 2019
We study within-family spillovers in college enrollment to show college-going behavior is transmissible between peers. Because siblings' test scores are weakly correlated, we exploit college-specific admissions thresholds that directly affect older but not younger siblings' college options. Older siblings' admissibility substantially increases…
