The Relationship Between Phonological Short-Term Memory (pSTM) and Categorical Perception of Speech
… listener. Prior research suggests that phonological short-term memory (pSTM) capacity is, in part, determined by the quality of the speech input. For example, recall is poorer for speech-in-noise, and individuals with poor pSTM may also show weak categorical perception. However, the …

Sublexical, lexical and phonological short-term memory processes: Evaluating models of speech perception and short-term memory
… and the relation of speech perception to phonological short-term memory (pSTM). Contrary to traditional models which assume that sublexical processing necessarily precedes lexical processing (e.g., McClelland & Elman, 1986; Norris, 1994), several studies have demonstrated that patients may …

Creating an SLI performance profile with load
… to be judged, and individual differences in phonological short term memory (PSTM) and working memory were measured (WM). For a successful simulation to occur, problematic structures should display lower performance than easier structures, particularly for longer sentences, even after taking …

Effects of long-term phonological knowledge on learning new words
… aspects of cognition; two primary components are phonological short-term memory and long-term knowledge. Short-term memory is responsible for the temporary storage and rehearsal of new information, and long-term knowledge is responsible for storing information gained throughout the lifetime. If …

There's more to the picture than meets the ear - Gaze behavior during communication in children with hearing impairment
… Participants with hearing impairment and reduced phonological short term memory capacity show a doubled probability of gaze-to-partner, compared to peers with normal hearing (paper 4). The findings express the multimodality of communication, and the need for multidisciplinary assessment and …

Examining Cognitive Processing in Children with an Arithmetic Disability
… examined the executive functioning and working memory of children with AD. An age-matched achievement-matched design was employed to explore whether children with AD exhibit developmental lags or deficits in these cognitive domains. While children with AD did not exhibit impairments in verbal …

Which skills influence pre-school children’s repetition of words, non-words and sentences?
… the role of existing language knowledge and phonological short-term memory (PSTM) on pre-school children’s non-word, word and sentence repetition (NWR, WR and SR). Previous studies have revealed that children with language difficulties find these tasks difficult, but there is debate about …

Interactive Effects of Perception and Production Training on L2 Phonetic Acquisition
… training, this thesis also considers the role of phonological short-term memory (PSTM) in phonetic acquisition, which has recently been suggested as a predictor of phonetic learning (e.g., Lengeris & Nicolaidis, 2014; MacKay et al., 2001). This thesis investigates the effects of production during …

The neurofunctional correlates of sentence processing: focus on difficulties of morphosyntactic processing and thematic role assignment in aphasia
… Both correlations persisted after covarying for phonological short-term memory. When response accuracy to passive vs active sentences in the presence of thematic foils was considered, portions of the angular and supramarginal gyrus were retrieved. They could provide the neural substrate for …
