Brain-behavior relationships in incidental learning of non-native phonetic categories
Luthra, Sahil; Fuhrmeister, Pamela; Molfese, Peter J.; Guediche, Sara; Blumstein, Sheila E.; Myers, Emily B. (Brain and Language, 2019)Research has implicated the left inferior frontal gyrus (LIFG) in mapping acoustic-phonetic input to sound category representations, both in native speech perception and non-native phonetic category learning. At issue is ... -
Neural substrates of subphonemic variation and lexical competition in spoken word recognition
Luthra, Sahil; Guediche, Sara; Blumstein, Sheila E.; Myers, Emily B. (Language, Cognition and Neuroscience, 2019)In spoken word recognition, subphonemic variation influences lexical activation, with sounds near a category boundary increasing phonetic competition as well as lexical competition. The current study investigated the ... -
Written sentence context effects on acoustic-phonetic perception: fMRI reveals cross-modal semantic-perceptual interactions
Guediche, Sara; Zhu, Yuli; Minicucci, Domenic; Blumstein, Sheila E. (Brain and Language, 2019)This study examines cross-modality effects of a semantically-biased written sentence context on the perception of an acoustically-ambiguous word target identifying neural areas sensitive to interactions between sentential ...
