Infant Auditory Sensitivity to Pure Tones and Frequency‐Modulated Tones
It has been suggested that infants respond preferentially to infant‐directed speech because their auditory sensitivity to sounds with extensive frequency modulation (FM) is better than their sensitivity to less modulated sounds. In this experiment, auditory thresholds for FM tones and for unmodulated, or pure, tones in a background of noise were measured for 4‐month‐old infants using a conditioned response procedure. The FM tones swept from 150 t…
Vowel categorization by very young infants
Six-month-old infants are known to categorize vowels despite variation in talker voice and pitch contour. Using the observer-based psychoacoustic procedure, this study asked whether 2- and 3-month-olds could categorize similarly. Infants were trained to respond whenever the vowel category alternated from /a/ to /i/ and to refrain from responding when the vowel category remained the same, despite variation in spectral cues associated with pitch an…
