Some Effects of Laboratory Training on Identification and Discrimination of Voicing Contrasts in Stop Consonants.

Pisconi, David B.; And Others

Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, v8 n2 p297-314 Apr 1982

Three experiments examined the perception of a three-way voicing contrast by monolingual speakers of English. The results demonstrate that the perceptual mechanisms used by adults in categorizing stop consonants can be modified easily with simple laboratory techniques in a short period of time. (Author/PN)
