Native and non-native English speech are processed differently, especially in noisy conditions. Non-native speech relies more on postlexical information for phonemic decisions, impacting speech perception models.

Area of Science:

  • Psycholinguistics
  • Speech Perception
  • Phonetics

Background:

  • Native and non-native speech perception involves distinct processing mechanisms.
  • Auditory and linguistic factors influence phonemic decision-making.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate how native and non-native English speech stimuli are processed by native English speakers.
  • To examine the role of prelexical versus postlexical information in phonemic decisions under varying listening conditions.

Main Methods:

  • Experiments involved native English speakers identifying word-initial consonants in monosyllabic words.
  • Stimuli included native and non-native English speech presented in silence and in noise.
  • A secondary linguistic task (noun/verb decision) was sometimes employed.

Main Results:

  • In silence, native and non-native speech were processed similarly, with task demands influencing prelexical/postlexical reliance.
  • In noise, native speech processing remained consistent, but non-native speech processing shifted to postlexical reliance regardless of task.

Conclusions:

  • Listening conditions significantly alter phonemic processing of non-native speech.
  • Findings suggest differences in phoneme processing models for native versus non-native auditory input.
