Von Holzen, Katie; van Ommen, Sandrien; White, Katherine S.; Nazzi, Thierry – Language Learning and Development, 2023
Successful word recognition requires that listeners attend to differences that are phonemic in the language while also remaining flexible to the variation introduced by different voices and accents. Previous work has demonstrated that American-English-learning 19-month-olds are able to balance these demands: although one-off one-feature…
