Abstract

Contents: An Articulatory Synthesizer for Perceptual Research; Perception of an Oral-Nasal Continuum Generated by Articulatory Synthesis; Coarticulation and Theories of Extrinsic Timing; Orthography and the Beginning Reader; Aspiration Amplitude as a Voicing Cue for Syllable-Initial Stop Consonants Presented Monaurally and in Dichotic Competition; Stop Consonant Place Perception with Single-Format Stimuli: Evidence for the Role of the Front-Cavity Resonance; Vowel Duration Change and its Underlying Physiological Mechanisms; The Psycholinguistic Basis of Linguistic Awareness; Some Effects of Later-Occurring Information on the Perception of Stop Consonant and Semivowel; Perceptual Equivalence of Two Acoustic Cues for Stop-Consonant Manner; Syllabic Coding and Reading Ability in Word Recognition; Acoustic Cues for a Fricative-Affricate Contrast in Word-Final Position; Apprehending Spelling Patterns for Vowels; A Developmental Study; 'Perceptual Centers' in Speech Production and Perception; and Influence of Vocalic Environment on Perception of Silence in Speech.
