Speech perception (SP) most commonly refers to the perceptual mapping from the highly variable acoustic speech signal to a linguistic representation, whether it be phonemes, diphones, syllables, or words. This is an example of categorization, in that potentially discriminable speech sounds are assigned to functionally equivalent classes. In this tutorial, we present some of the main challenges to our understanding of the categorization of speech sounds and the conceptualization of SP that has resulted from these challenges. We focus here on issues and experiments that define open research questions relevant to phoneme categorization, arguing that SP is best understood as perceptual categorization, a position that places SP in direct contact with research from other areas of perception and cognition.
言语感知（SP）最常见的是指从高度可变的声学语音信号到语言表征的感知映射，无论这种表征是音素、双音素、音节还是单词。这是分类的一个例子，因为潜在可区分的语音被分配到功能上等效的类别中。在本教程中，我们提出了一些对我们理解语音分类以及由这些挑战所导致的言语感知概念化的主要挑战。我们在此关注那些定义了与音素分类相关的开放性研究问题的议题和实验，认为言语感知最好被理解为感知分类，这一立场使言语感知与来自感知和认知其他领域的研究直接相关。
