Phonological Representations in Language Models
… insights gained from using phoneme-based input representations in language model training, leveraging developmentally-plausible training frameworks. First, it surveys existing phoneme-based datasets and the grapheme-to-phoneme conversion methods commonly used to generate them. Identifying a …

Processing of Underlying and Surface Phonological Representations In Visual Word Recognition
<p>The current study investigated the nature of phonological codes used in visual word recognition. The phonological unit selected for the study was the underlying and surface representations of word-final two-consonant codas. The underlying representation consisted of both consonants whereas the …

Impaired learning of phonetic consistency and generalized neural adaptation deficits in dyslexia
… the development of expert reading ability. Phonological processing deficits -- impaired representation of, or access to, the abstract units of spoken language -- have been implicated as the principal source of reading difficulties in dyslexia, independent of other cognitive factors. However, …

The effect of phonological, semantic, and hybrid associates on accurate recall and false memories of adults who stutter : a preliminary study
There are data to suggest that the phonological representations of young children who stutter are less specified than their typically fluent peers. The purpose of the present study is to determine if this apparent difference in phonological encoding persists in adults who stutter. Utilizing a false …

The relation between error variability and stimulability in children with SSD
… relations among proposed measures of underlying phonological representations (UPRs) in children with speech sound disorders (SSD). Eighteen children with SSD, aged 3;6-5;5, were tested for their error variability, stimulability, nonword repetition (NWR), and intra-word production variability. …

Morphological Representations In Lexical Processing
… through an investigation of the morphological representations involved in auditory lexical processing. Previous work in theoretical morphology, spoken word recognition, and morphological processing are considered together in generating hypotheses. Chapter 2 provides theoretical and …

Sentence processing in aphasia : single case treatment studies
… in the connections between verbs' semantic and phonological representations. The second subject had a hypothesised deficit in the early message level processes. The third subject had a semantic verb deficit which particularly impaired access to verbs' thematic information. Therapies were …

Lexical Organisation in Chinese Spoken Word Production: Evidence from Studies of Homophones
… issues were investigated: The lexical representations of homophones in Chinese, and how activation is transmitted from lexical to phonological levels in Chinese spoken word production. The results of two experimental studies of word reading responses to homophones and non-homophonic …

The phonetics and phonology of tonal systems
… defined a clear and systematic relation between phonological representations and phonetic output in terms of acoustically observable fundamental frequency (FO) variations. This is problematic, because meaningful pitch patterns cannot be related to underlying phonological primitives in any clear …

A weighted-constraint model of F0 movements/
… develops a grammar of phonetic implementation of phonologically significant F0 (pitch) events, which is applicable across languages. Through production studies of various languages, we show that phonetic universals exist which govern phonetic realization of the phonological representations of …

Greek Meter : An Approach Using Metrical Grids and Maxent
… abstract rhythmic patterns, made concrete by the phonological representations of verses. A main goal is to explicitly characterize the well-formedness conditions on the correspondences between these abstract patterns and actual lines. The study is couched in the framework of generative metrics. …

An onset is an onset: evidence from abstraction of newly-learned phonotactic constraints
… (or the reverse). These results suggest abstract representations of newly-learned phonotactic constraints in which the syllable, rather than the word, governs how those constraints are represented: an onset is an onset, a coda is a coda, regardless of word structure and word position.

Links between Short-Term Memory and Word Retrieval in Aphasia
… impairment lies (e.g., semantic, lexical, phonological, etc.). Recent work in aphasiology argues that linguistic impairments at both the production and comprehension levels of language are supported, at least in part, by shared underlying processes. These processes aid in the access to and …

Transdiagnostic approach to language and cognition in the logopenic variant of primary progressive aphasia and Alzheimer’s disease
… 4 highlighted that instead of having a core phonological impairment, lvPPA patients have a working memory/buffering impairment that adversely affects their performance on length-dependent working memory tasks. In my deep phenotype study of lvPPA in Chapter 5, I concluded that: (i) the …

Πειραματική διερεύνηση φωνολογικών παραγόντων της ελληνικής γλώσσας στη δυσλεξία
Η εξελικτική δυσλεξία είναι μια ειδική μαθησιακή δυσκολία στην κατάκτηση του γραπτού λόγου που δεν σχετίζεται με χαμηλό νοητικό δυναμικό, ελλιπείς εκπαιδευτικές ευκαιρίες ή κάποιο εμφανές αισθητηριακό ή νευρολογικό πρόβλημα. Σύμφωνα με την «υπόθεση των φωνολογικών αναπαραστάσεων», που έχει …
