Laura Jane Mallaband – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2024
Background: Speech and language therapists (SLTs) regularly use phonetic transcription to record and analyse typical and disordered speech. Phonetic transcription is highly demanding of auditory perceptual skills so researchers are sceptical about its accuracy and reliability. The literature describes how phonetic transcription is prone to…

Micalle Carl; Eduard Rudyk; Yair Shapira; Heather Leavy Rusiewicz; Michal Icht – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2024
Purpose: Automatic speech analysis (ASA) and automatic speech recognition systems are increasingly being used in the treatment of speech sound disorders (SSDs). When utilized as a home practice tool or in the absence of the clinician, the ASA system has the potential to facilitate treatment gains. However, the feedback accuracy of such systems…

Marie Bissell – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Dialects vary in their allophonic patterns, which can affect listeners' phonological and lexical representations. I explore how different exposure to dialect-specific allophonic patterns for two vowels in American English, /ae ai/, affects listeners' lexical processing behaviors across three perception tasks: perceptual similarity, priming, and…

van Rijthoven, Robin; Kleemans, Tijs; Segers, Eliane; Verhoeven, Ludo – Reading & Writing Quarterly, 2021
We examined the response to a phonics through spelling intervention for children with developmental dyslexia in word and pseudoword reading efficiency and word spelling. Furthermore, we investigated to what extent the response to the intervention is robust across different cognitive profiles (phonological awareness, rapid automatized naming, and…

Almekhlafy, Sultan Saleh Ahmed – MEXTESOL Journal, 2021
Graphophonemic (GP) knowledge of a language represents the foundation of a good learning start point. In the English as a foreign language (EFL) context, many learners lack adequate GP knowledge of English, resulting in difficulty to master the language skills even at the tertiary level. Thus, this study investigated first-year university,…

Zhurkenovich, Saurbayev Rishat; Kozhamuratkyzy, Zhetpisbay Aliya; Khatipovna, Demessinova Galina; Tasbulatovna, Kulbayeva Baglan; Aisovich, Vafeev Ravil – Arab World English Journal, 2021
The article is devoted to studying the principles of the language economy of modern English word-forming. The most productive ways of word-formation are highlighted, illustrating the tendency of the language to compress nominative units. In the system of English word-formation, the most effective ways to save speech are affixal word formation,…

Saito, Kazuya – TESOL Quarterly: A Journal for Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages and of Standard English as a Second Dialect, 2021
The current study presents two meta-analyses to explore what underlies the assessment and teaching of comprehensible and nativelike pronunciation among English-as-a-Second-Language speakers. In Study 1, listener studies (n = 37) were retrieved examining the influence of segmental, prosodic, and temporal features on listeners' intuitive judgements…

Ceron, Marizete Ilha; Simoni, Simone Nicolini De; Keske-Soares, Márcia – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2022
Aims: To describe typical phonological development of Brazilian Portuguese (BP)-speaking children, considering the following parameters: age of customary production, acquisition and mastery. Methods & Procedures: Data were collected from 857 children aged between 3 years and 8 years 11 months with typical language and speech development. The…

Mashaqba, Bassil; Daoud, Aya; Zuraiq, Wael; Huneety, Anas – Language Acquisition: A Journal of Developmental Linguistics, 2022
This article investigates the production of the emphatic consonants /?, ?, ?/ by typically developing Jordanian children. Sixty typically developing monolingual Ammani Arabic-speaking children (30 boys and 30 girls) with ages ranging from 2 to 7;11 years were recruited in a production experiment. In the experiment, they were asked to produce 18…

Shao, Jing; Bakhtiar, Mehdi; Zhang, Caicai – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: Evidence increasingly indicates that people with developmental stuttering have auditory perception deficits. Our previous research has indicated similar but slower performance in categorical perception of the speech sounds under the quiet condition in children who stutter and adults who stutter (AWS) compared with their typically fluent…

Song Yi Kim; Jeong-Im Han – Second Language Research, 2024
Korean learners of English are known to repair consonant clusters, which are not allowed in their native language, with an epenthetic vowel [close central unrounded vowel]. The purpose of the present study is to examine whether the perception-production link of such an illusory vowel in a second language (L2) is only within and not across…

Matthew Ayobami Ajibade – ProQuest LLC, 2024
This study investigates the effects of native language experience and phonetic properties on the discrimination of labial-velar versus labial and velar contrasts, as well as voicing contrasts in labials, velars, and labial-velars. Research indicates that phonological perceptions are influenced by native language experience and the specific…

Yu, Luodi; Huang, Dan; Wang, Suiping; Zhang, Yang – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Children with autism often show atypical brain lateralization for speech and language processing, however, it is unclear what linguistic component contributes to this phenomenon. Here we measured event-related potential (ERP) responses in 21 school-age autistic children and 25 age-matched neurotypical (NT) peers during listening to word-level…

Danielle Daidone; Ryan Lidster; Franziska Kruger – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2023
Our study proposes the use of a free classification task for investigating the dimensions used by listeners in their perception of nonnative sounds and for predicting the perceptual discriminability of nonnative contrasts. In a free classification task, participants freely group auditory stimuli based on their perceived similarity. The results can…

Jesus, Luis M. T.; Martinez, Joana; Santos, Joaquim; Hall, Andreia; Joffe, Victoria – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2019
Purpose: This article reports on the effectiveness of a novel tablet-based approach to phonological intervention and compares it to a traditional tabletop approach, targeting children with phonologically based speech sound disorders (SSD). Method: Twenty-two Portuguese children with phonologically based SSD were randomly assigned to 1 of 2…
