Ulicheva, Anastasia; Roon, Kevin D.; Cherkasova, Zoya; Mousikou, Petroula – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
Most psycholinguistic models of reading aloud and of speech production do not include linguistic representations more fine-grained than the phoneme, despite the fact that the available empirical evidence suggests that feature-level representations are activated during reading aloud and speech production. In a series of masked-priming experiments…

Artiunian, Vardan; Lopukhina, Anastasiya – Journal of Child Language, 2020
This study investigates how "phonological neighborhood density" (PND) affects word production and recognition in 4-to-6-year-old Russian children in comparison to adults. Previous experiments with English-speaking adults showed that a dense neighborhood facilitated word production but inhibited recognition whereas a sparse neighborhood…

Yurtbasi, Metin – Online Submission, 2017
The aim of this article is to present to the reader a sampling (860 items) from the Qazaq phonological terminology with their equivalents in Russian, English and Turkish. There has been many linguistic studies and publications in the Qazaq sound system both by Qazaq and foreign scholars in form of books, articles and glossaries. Qazaq is a member…

Showalter, Catherine E. – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2020
We investigated how grapheme familiarity and grapheme-phoneme correspondence (GPC) congruence affect adult learners' ability to make use of orthographic input (OI) during phono-lexical acquisition. Native English speakers, with no Russian experience (naïve) or learners of Russian, heard auditory forms, saw pictured meanings, and saw written input…

Showalter, Catherine E. – ProQuest LLC, 2018
Adult second language (L2) learners often experience difficulty with novel L2 phonological contrasts, limiting their ability to establish contrastive lexical representations of L2 words. It has been demonstrated that the availability of orthographic input (OI), and variables interacting with OI, can shape the inferences learners make about L2…

Kharlamov, Viktor; Campbell, Kenneth; Kazanina, Nina – Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, 2011
Speech sounds are not always perceived in accordance with their acoustic-phonetic content. For example, an early and automatic process of perceptual repair, which ensures conformity of speech inputs to the listener's native language phonology, applies to individual input segments that do not exist in the native inventory or to sound sequences that…

Gildersleeve-Neumann, Christina E.; Wright, Kira L. – Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 2010
Purpose: English speech acquisition in Russian-English (RE) bilingual children was investigated, exploring the effects of Russian phonetic and phonological properties on English single-word productions. Russian has more complex consonants and clusters and a smaller vowel inventory than English. Method: One hundred thirty-seven single-word samples…

Berent, Iris; Balaban, Evan; Lennertz, Tracy; Vaknin-Nusbaum, Vered – Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 2010
Domain-specific systems are hypothetically specialized with respect to the outputs they compute and the inputs they allow (Fodor, 1983). Here, we examine whether these 2 conditions for specialization are dissociable. An initial experiment suggests that English speakers could extend a putatively universal phonological restriction to inputs…

Comer, William J. – Reading in a Foreign Language, 2012
This study describes how intermediate-level first language English readers of Russian as a second language deploy lexical inferencing and other strategies when reading informational texts. Fifth-semester students of Russian performed think-alouds while reading two texts; one written for the general adult reader, and the other meant for school-age…

Davidson, Lisa – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2011
Previous research indicates that multiple levels of linguistic information play a role in the perception and discrimination of non-native phonemes. This study examines the interaction of phonetic, phonemic and phonological factors in the discrimination of non-native phonotactic contrasts. Listeners of Catalan, English, and Russian are presented…

Ashbrook, John – Educational Psychology in Practice, 2010
Published research shows that English speakers gain literacy skills up to the 7-year level more effectively when taught using a language experience approach rather than a word reading approach (reading common words plus phonic reading). It is suggested that this is because of the almost unique nature of English phonology, that is the strengthening…

Shafiro, Valeriy; Kharkhurin, Anatoliy V. – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2009
Abstract Does native language phonology influence visual word processing in a second language? This question was investigated in two experiments with two groups of Russian-English bilinguals, differing in their English experience, and a monolingual English control group. Experiment 1 tested visual word recognition following semantic…

Kempe, Vera; Brooks, Patricia J.; Kharkhurin, Anatoliy – Language Learning, 2010
This study explores how learners generalize grammatical categories such as noun gender. Adult native English speakers with no prior knowledge of Russian (N = 47, ages 17-55 years) were trained to categorize Russian masculine and feminine diminutive nouns according to gender. The training set was morphophonologically homogeneous due to similarities…

Kaushanskaya, Margarita; Marian, Viorica – Language Learning, 2007
Recognition and interference of a nontarget language (Russian) during production in a target language (English) were tested in Russian-English bilinguals using eye movements and picture naming. In Experiment 1, Russian words drew more eye movements and delayed English naming to a greater extent than control nonwords and English translation…

Marian, Viorica; Spivey, Michael – Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2003
Two eye-tracking experiments examined spoken language processing in Russian-English bilinguals. The proportion of looks to objects whose names were phonologically similar to the name of a target object in either the same language, the other language, or both languages at the same time was compared to the proportion of looks in a control condition…
