  • Neural correlates of infant accent discrimination

    Open AccessAlejandrina Cristia, Yasuyo Minagawa‐Kawai et al.ARTICLEDevelopmental Science2014

    The present study investigated the neural correlates of infant discrimination of very similar linguistic varieties (Quebecois and Parisian French) using functional Near InfraRed Spectroscopy. In line with previous behavioral and electrophysiological data, there was no evidence that 3-month-olds discriminated the two regional accents, whereas 5-month-olds did, with the locus of discrimination in left anterior perisylvian regions. These neuroimagin…

  • Insights on Nirs Sensitivity from a Cross-Linguistic Study on the Emergence of Phonological Grammar

    Open AccessYasuyo Minagawa‐Kawai, Yasuyo Minagawa-Kawai et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Psychology2013

    Each language has a unique set of phonemic categories and phonotactic rules which determine permissible sound sequences in that language. Behavioral research demonstrates that one's native language shapes the perception of both sound categories and sound sequences in adults, and neuroimaging results further indicate that the processing of native phonemes and phonotactics involves a left-dominant perisylvian brain network. Recent work using a nove…

  • Function Words Constrain On-Line Recognition of Verbs and Nouns in French 18-Month-Olds

    Élodie Cauvet, Rita Alves Limissuri et al.ARTICLELanguage Learning and Development2013

    In this experiment using the conditioned head-turn procedure, 18-month-old French-learning toddlers were trained to respond to either a target noun (“la balle”/the ball) or a target verb (“je mange”/I eat). They were then tested on target word recognition in two syntactic contexts: the target word was preceded either by a correct function word (“une balle”/a ball or “on mange”/they eat), or by an incorrect function word, signaling a word from the…

  • Early Word Recognition in Sentence Context

    Open AccessKatrin Skoruppa, Nikolaus Mani et al.ARTICLEInfancy2013

    Recent work has shown that young children can use fine phonetic detail during the recognition of isolated and sentence‐final words from early in lexical development. The present study investigates 24‐month‐olds' word recognition in sentence‐medial position in two experiments using an Intermodal Preferential Looking paradigm. In Experiment 1, French toddlers detect word‐final voicing mispronunciations (e.g., bu z [by z ] for bu s [by s ] “bus”), a…

  • (Non)words, (non)words, (non)words

    Open AccessCéline Ngon, Andrew Martin et al.ARTICLEDevelopmental Science2012

    Previous research with artificial language learning paradigms has shown that infants are sensitive to statistical cues to word boundaries (Saffran, Aslin & Newport, 1996) and that they can use these cues to extract word-like units (Saffran, 2001). However, it is unknown whether infants use statistical information to construct a receptive lexicon when acquiring their native language. In order to investigate this issue, we rely on the fact that bes…

  • The Development of Word Stress Processing in French and Spanish Infants

    Katrin Skoruppa, Francoise Pons et al.ARTICLELanguage Learning and Development2012

    This study focuses on the development of lexical stress perception during the first year of life. Previous research shows that cross-linguistic differences in word stress organization translate into differences in word stress processing from a very early age: At 9 months, Spanish-learning infants, learning a language with variable word stress, can discriminate between segmentally varied nonsense words with initial stress (e.g., níla, túli) and fi…

  • Assessing Signal-Driven Mechanisms in Neonates

    Open AccessYasuyo Minagawa‐Kawai, Yasuyo Minagawa-Kawai et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Psychology2011

    Past studies have found that, in adults, the acoustic properties of sound signals (such as fast versus slow temporal features) differentially activate the left and right hemispheres, and some have hypothesized that left-lateralization for speech processing may follow from left-lateralization to rapidly changing signals. Here, we tested whether newborns' brains show some evidence of signal-specific lateralization responses using near-infrared spec…
