概括
听众在短暂的被动接触后,迅速调整自己的语音生产,以匹配不熟悉的口音. 统计学学习影响声学线索,如基本频率 (F0),在感知和生产中都受到加权.
科学领域:
- 心理语言学 心理语言学
- 语音感知 语音感知
- 听力学习学习 听力学习
背景情况:
- 语音感知和语音制作密切相关,有证据表明感知-制作传输.
- 这种转移所涉及的精确机制和声学特性仍然不完全理解.
- 统计学学习为理解听众如何适应新的语音模式提供了一个框架.
研究的目的:
- 通过统计学学习的透视来研究语音中的感知-生产转移.
- 检查如何被动接触到声学变化的语音影响听众自己的产品.
- 为了确定感知权重的调整是否转移到语音生产.
主要方法:
- 参与者被动地倾听最小的对发言 (酒/pier) 与规范或反向的声学生产关系 (F0和语音发声时间).
- 听众分类一个感知模两可的测试刺激.
- 然后,参与者大声重复了测试刺激,以评估生产变化.
主要成果:
- 基本频率 (F0) 在感知分类中起到较小的作用,与正规条件相比,在反向 (口音) 条件中起到较小的作用.
- 这种对F0的感知下加权转移到语音生产中,听众在自己的发言中系统地降低了F0的权重.
- 这种效应在男性和女性参与者中都是强大的.
结论:
- 短期统计学习快速调整声学映射到基于被动倾听的语音类别.
- 这些感知学到的调整显著影响了后续的语音产生.
- 这项研究表明,通过被动听觉输入的统计学学习与声乐产生的变化之间存在直接联系.

Observational Learning
188
Albert Bandura's observational learning, also known as imitation or modeling, occurs when a person observes and imitates another's behavior. It is a quicker process than operant conditioning. A well-known example is the Bobo doll study, where children who saw an adult acting aggressively towards the doll were more likely to act aggressively when left alone, compared to those who observed a nonaggressive adult. Many psychologists view observational learning as a form of latent learning...

Language and Cognition
354
Language serves as a bridge between ideas and communication, influencing how individuals perceive and interact with the world. Psychologists have long debated whether language shapes thought or vice versa. This discussion gained grip with Edward Sapir and Benjamin Lee Whorf in the 1940s, who proposed that language determines thought, a concept known as linguistic determinism. They suggested that the vocabulary and structure of a language influence how its speakers think and perceive reality.

Language Development
378
Children master language quickly and with relative ease, supported by both biological predisposition and reinforcement. B. F. Skinner (1957) proposed that language is learned through reinforcement, while Noam Chomsky (1965) argued that language acquisition mechanisms are biologically determined.
The critical period for language acquisition suggests that the ability to acquire language is at its peak early in life. As people age, this proficiency decreases. Language development begins very...

Associative Learning
412
Associative learning is a fundamental concept in behavioral psychology, wherein a connection is established between two stimuli or events, leading to a learned response. This process is critical in understanding how behaviors are acquired and modified. Conditioning, the mechanism through which associations are formed, can be divided into two main types: classical conditioning and operant conditioning, each elucidating different aspects of associative learning.

Auditory Perception
343
The auditory system is essential for sound perception, utilizing various critical structures. When sound waves enter the outer ear, they travel through the ear canal and cause the eardrum to vibrate. These vibrations are then transmitted to the middle ear, where three tiny bones – the malleus, incus, and stapes – amplify the sound. This amplification is crucial, as it ensures that the sound vibrations are strong enough to be conveyed to the inner ear. These vibrations then reach the...

Improving Translational Accuracy
11.4K
Base complementarity between the three base pairs of mRNA codon and the tRNA anticodon is not a failsafe mechanism. Inaccuracies can range from a single mismatch to no correct base pairing at all. The free energy difference between the correct and nearly correct base pairs can be as small as 3 kcal/ mol. With complementarity being the only proofreading step, the estimated error frequency would be one wrong amino acid in every 100 amino acids incorporated. However, error frequencies observed in...
