A tipping point in word recognition? Investigating the relationship between root and form frequency across visual and auditory modalities
For various theories of human word recognition, the question of how the recognition of suffixed words is influenced by the morphological root or the surface form of the word is of considerable relevance. According to many theories (e.g., Baayen et al., 1997b), the morphological root predominantly guides the recognition process unless the word is of a (relatively) high frequency of occurrence. We tested this ‘tipping point’ hypothesis by comparing…
Impact of a physical activity program on the health-related quality of life in pediatric cancer patients
Physical activity is essential for the health and well-being of children and adolescents. However, those living with cancer often experience reduced physical activity levels, which negatively impact their functional capacity and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). In Ecuador, data from the National Institute of Statistics and Census (2021) reveal that 20% of children engage in less than one hour of physical activity per week, highlighting the…
Rhythm-affected plural variation in written Dutch
Previous research has shown that users of certain languages tend to choose and order their words such that they avoid stress clashes. This tendency has been attributed to the Principle of Rhythmic Alternation (PRA). It has also been claimed that language users alternate between morphological structures to abide by the PRA. However, in our estimation, it has not yet been convincingly shown that PRA effects documented for morphology are indeed morp…
Second language learners acquire reduced word forms just like they acquire full forms
We investigated the effect of auditory exposure on the recognition of full ( i.e. , canonical) and reduced ( i.e. , with weakened or deleted sounds) word forms by beginner second language (L2) learners. We taught three participant groups the same French schwa words. One group was trained only on the full ( i.e. , with schwa) forms, one group on the reduced forms ( i.e. , without schwa) only, and one group on both the full and reduced forms of eac…
Computational Modeling of an Auditory Lexical Decision Experiment Using Diana
We present an implementation of DIANA, a computational model of spoken word recognition, to model responses collected in the Massive Auditory Lexical Decision (MALD) project. DIANA is an end-to-end model, including an activation and decision component that takes the acoustic signal as input, activates internal word representations, and outputs lexicality judgments and estimated response latencies. Simulation 1 presents the process of creating aco…
The use of exemplars differs between native and non-native listening
This study compares the role of exemplars in native and non-native listening. Two English identity priming experiments were conducted with native English, Dutch non-native, and Spanish non-native listeners. In Experiment 1, primes and targets were spoken in the same or a different voice. Only the native listeners showed exemplar effects. In Experiment 2, primes and targets had the same or a different degree of vowel reduction. The Dutch, but not …
Speech register influences listeners’ word expectations
We utilized the N400 effect to investigate the influence of speech register on predictive language processing. Participants listened to long stretches (4 - 15 min) of naturalistic speech from different registers (dialogues, news broadcasts, and read-aloud books), totalling approximately 50,000 words, while the EEG signal was recorded. We estimated the surprisal of words in the speech materials with the aid of a statistical language model in such …
Do speech registers differ in the predictability of words
Previous research has demonstrated that language use can vary depending on the context of situation. The present paper extends this finding by comparing word predictability differences between 14 speech registers ranging from highly informal conversations to read-aloud books. We trained 14 statistical language models to compute register-specific word predictability and trained a register classifier on the perplexity score vector of the language m…
