Peer reviewedCutting, James E. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1975
Phonological fusion occurs when the phonemes of two different speech stimuli are combined into a new percept that is longer and linguistically more complex than either of the two inputs. The present article is an investigation of the conditions necessary and sufficient for fusion to occur. (Editor/RK)

Peer reviewedCutting, James E.; Day, Ruth S. – Journal of Phonetics, 1975
Research is reported which examined the effect of various factors on the frequency of phonological responses. Phonemic order and location of clusters within a syllable affected fusion. Initial stop-liquid clusters fused readily; final liquid-stop clusters rarely fused. Some subjects fused on most or all trials; others fused less frequently.…

Healy, Alice F.; Cutting, James E. – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1976
Two detection experiments were conducted with short lists of synthetic speech stimuli where phoneme targets were compared to syllable targets. Results suggest that phonemes and syllables are equally basic to speech perception. (Author/RM)
