Abstract

This study reports equivalence in recognition for variable productions of spoken words that differ greatly in frequency. General American (GA) listeners participated in either a semantic priming or a false-memory task, each with three talkers with different accents: GA, New York City (NYC), and Southern Standard British English (BE). GA/BE induced strong semantic priming and low false recall rates. NYC induced no semantic priming but high false recall rates. These results challenge current theory and illuminate encoding-based differences sensitive to phonetically-cued talker variation. The findings highlight the central role of phonetic variation in the spoken word recognition process.

摘要

本研究报告了对频率差异很大的口语单词不同发音的识别等效性。美国通用英语（GA）听众参与了语义启动或错误记忆任务，每项任务有三位带有不同口音的说话者：GA、纽约市（NYC）和标准英国南部英语（BE）。GA/BE引发了强烈的语义启动和较低的错误回忆率。NYC未引发语义启动，但错误回忆率较高。这些结果挑战了当前理论，并揭示了对语音提示的说话者差异敏感的基于编码的差异。研究结果突出了语音变异在口语单词识别过程中的核心作用。
