What are the effects of experience on subsequent learning? We explored the effects of language-specific word order knowledge on the acquisition of sequential conditional information. Korean and English adults were engaged in a sequence learning task involving three different sets of stimuli: auditory linguistic (nonsense syllables), visual…

McCullough, Stephen; Emmorey, Karen – Cognition, 2009
Two experiments investigated categorical perception (CP) effects for affective facial expressions and linguistic facial expressions from American Sign Language (ASL) for Deaf native signers and hearing non-signers. Facial expressions were presented in isolation (Experiment 1) or in an ASL verb context (Experiment 2). Participants performed ABX…

Sundara, Megha; Polka, Linda; Molnar, Monika – Cognition, 2008
Previous studies indicate that the discrimination of native phonetic contrasts in infants exposed to two languages from birth follows a different developmental time course from that observed in monolingual infants. We compared infant discrimination of dental (French) and alveolar (English) place variants of /d/ in three groups differing in…

Morford, Jill P.; Grieve-Smith, Angus B.; MacFarlane, James; Staley, Joshua; Waters, Gabriel – Cognition, 2008
Perception of American Sign Language (ASL) handshape and place of articulation parameters was investigated in three groups of signers: deaf native signers, deaf non-native signers who acquired ASL between the ages of 10 and 18, and hearing non-native signers who acquired ASL as a second language between the ages of 10 and 26. Participants were…

Peer reviewedCheung, Him; Chen, Hsuan-Chih; Lai, Chun Yip; Wong, On Chi; Hills, Melanie – Cognition, 2001
Compared phonological awareness of younger prereading children and older literate children from different linguistic backgrounds (Hong Kong and Guangzhou children speaking Chinese and New Zealand children speaking English). Found that both orthographic and spoken language experience affect the development of phonological skills, implying a…

Sundara, Megha; Polka, Linda; Genesee, Fred – Cognition, 2006
To trace how age and language experience shape the discrimination of native and non-native phonetic contrasts, we compared 4-year-olds learning either English or French or both and simultaneous bilingual adults on their ability to discriminate the English /d-[delta]/ contrast. Findings show that the ability to discriminate the native English…
