Exciting news! Our conference paper titled "Auditory reverse correlation applied to the study of place and voicing: four new phoneme-discrimination tasks" has been accepted for presentation at #ForumAcusticum2023 #FA2023! This is the foundation stone for a bigger study to be published next year, and also a summary of our overall scientific aim in the team.

This research is at the juncture between #psycholinguistics, #phonetics and #auditory perception, employing the Auditory #ReverseCorrelation (#revcorr) experimental paradigm. This approach unravels the acoustic cues employed by listeners in diverse auditory tasks, shedding light on individual perception strategies. @psycholinguistics
Using the open source "fastACI toolbox" [https://github.com/aosses-tue/fastACI] developed in our group, we have applied the revcorr paradigm to 5 #phoneme pairs: /b/-/d/, /b/-/p/, /d/-/g/, /d/-/t/, and /p/-/t/. This allowed us to investigate the perception of two fundamental phonetic traits: place of articulation and voicing. @psycholinguistics
Our paper presents the results of 2 participants in all 5 phonetic contrasts, revealing their individual listening strategies. The findings align with established auditory cues in psycholinguistic literature while uncovering unexpected secondary cues, enriching our understanding of auditory perception. #psycholinguistics @psycholinguistics @psycholinguistics
