MALD MFCC subset
2019-10-01
A subset of the Massive Auditory Lexical Decision stimuli. They are represented as sequences of MFCCs with delta and delta-delta coefficients. There are also associated label files so that the data can be used for machine learning purposes, though they are force-aligned labels and not...

Although most auditory lexical decision experiments are performed in a laboratory setting, humans tend to communicate in uncontrolled and noisy environments. We investigated, indirectly, the impact of noise and other distractions on lexical processing. The present study used a subset of words...

Measuring the dispersion of density in head and neck cancer patients' vowel spaces: The vowel dispersion index
Download2019-10-16
Matthew C. Kelley, Daniel Aalto
The present study introduces a measure of the dispersion of density throughout the vowel space, which we refer to as the vowel dispersion index. The vowel dispersion index is based on calculating the total variation of the density values in Story & Bunton’s (2017) convex hull representation of...

Perception and timing of acoustic distance
2021-11-06
Matthew C. Kelley, Benjamin V. Tucker
The notion of acoustic distance figures into many aspects of phonetics, including phonological neighborhoods. A measurement of word-level acoustic distance useful for cognitive modeling must account for two aspects of perception: listener sensitivity to acoustic differences and the duration...

Prosodic focus marking in clefts and syntactically unmarked equivalents: Prosody–syntax trade-off or additive effects?
Download2021-01-01
Two experiments quantitatively investigated the interaction of prosody and syntax in marking focus in English. A production study with 28 participants (analyzing 919 utterances) found that the acoustic marking of subject focus vs broad focus, induced through a preceding context question, was...

bBoiA sizable number of phonetic and psycholinguistic experiments have been conducted to investigate the recognition of real words. From this work, researchers have found that various characteristics of lexical items affect the recognition process, such as lexical frequency, phonotactic...

Supplementary files for "A Comparison of Four Vowel Overlap Measures"
2019-01-01
Matthew C. Kelley, Benjamin V. Tucker
The files contained in this deposit are the supplementary files for the paper "A Comparison of Four Vowel Overlap Measures". The files contained are the code for the vowel overlap measures (soam.R, aposteriori.R, voach.R), the code for plotting the vowel overlap measures (plot.soam.R,...

Supplementary materials and data for "Perception and timing of acoustic distance"
2023-01-21
Matthew C. Kelley, Benjamin V. Tucker
The files in this ZIP archive are supplementary materials for "Timing and perception of acoustic distance". There are three main subfolders: 1) "distance_rating" - contains the files to reproduce the distance rating task analysis 2) "duration_discrimination" - contains the files to reproduce the...

These supplementary materials present detailed results of statistical modelling described in the following book chapter: Arnhold, A., Elfner, E., & Compton, R. (to appear). Inuktitut and the concept of word-level prominence. In K. Bogomolets & H. van der Hulst (Eds.), Word prominence in languages...

Pseudowords are used as stimuli in many psycholinguistic experiments yet they, remain largely under-researched. To better understand the cognitive processing of pseudowords, we analysed the pseudoword responses in the Massive Auditory Lexical Decision megastudy data set. Linguistic...
