Abstract This research investigates the effect of production on 4.5‐ to 6‐year‐old children's recognition newly learned words. In Experiment 1, children were taught four novel words in a produced or heard training condition during brief phase. 2, eight words, and this time was blocked design. Immediately after training, tested their trained using preferential looking paradigm. both experiments, recognized that but demonstrated better for items heard. These findings are opposite previous...
The production effect is influenced by various factors, including cognitive and linguistic-related variables. Previous studies found that the varies when stimuli have native versus non-native speech sounds, but to date, no investigated whether also modulated frequency of sound patterns within a language. Adults were taught novel words in two training conditions: Produced or Heard. These items comprised English varied frequency. Participants trained on frequent recalled more than Heard items....
Infants and toddlers are still being evaluated for their hearing sensitivity but not auditory-processing skills. Iterated rippled noise (IRN) stimuli require the auditory system to utilize temporal periodicity autocorrelate iterations perceive pitch.This study investigated acoustic change complex (ACC) elicited by IRN in "normal"-hearing infants, toddlers, adults determine maturation of cortical processing stimuli.Cortical responses filtered white (onset) concatenated with (d = 10...
