    But it's an empirical question, and the answer could very well be yes despite the above!

    1. Music is as much a part of culture in areas with tone languages as elsewhere.
    2. Pitch is used in non-tone languages for lots of stuff (emphasis, enumerating lists, distinguishing statements from questions, etc), so maybe speakers of any language would have comparable effects of such distractors.
    3. Whisper studies (and others) suggest that listeners have plenty of cues besides pitch to distinguish different tones.

    First, I have no idea - that's a great question. However, here are some thoughts that lead me to guess that they'd have no problem (when compared to speakers of non-tone languages):

  4. How do we understand speech-eech-eech in the presence of an #echo-o-o? This study of the robustness of human #SpeechPerception in echoic environments, showing that speech and its echo are processed separately in the brain to help intelligibility #PLOSBiology plos.io/3uAUnRf

  5. Happy to introduce the first release of TMST, a #Matlab toolbox for the computation of amplitude- and f0- modulation spectra and spectrograms. This toolbox provides different tools to explore the modulation content and dynamics of #audio signals, in particular #speech #sounds. github.com/LeoVarnet/TMST #SpeechPerception #SpeechProduction @psycholinguistics @linguistics

  6. Out now in Developmental Psychology -- Auditory and visual category learning in children and adults by me, Erica Lescht, Mandy Hampton Wray, and Bharath Chandrasekaran!

    psycnet.apa.org/doi/10.1037/de

    We found that adults learned better than children, BUT this enhanced performance was asymmetrical across categories in different modalities.

    We link these asymmetrical differences to the #development of skills such as #SpeechPerception and #reading.

  7. Pour commencer, deux articles qui présentent de façon vulgarisée la méthode qui est au centre de mes recherches : la corrélation inverse (#ReverseCorrelation ou #Revcorr pour les intimes).
    Dans le premier billet je décris la philosophie de cette approche ("Le cerveau comme boîte noire" dbao.leo-varnet.fr/2018/11/29/).
    Dans le deuxième, je parle de la façon dont elle peut être appliquée à l'étude de la perception de la parole ("A la recherche des indices acoustiques de la parole" dbao.leo-varnet.fr/2019/05/25/). #psycholinguistics #psycholinguistique #epistemologie #psychophysics #psychophysique #SpeechPerception #Perception

  11. @trochee @spacyoddity and the fucked up part of that is how it might not even phenomenologically "sound like" there is any difference even though there are dramatic differences I'm how it acoustically "sounds." I swear I get how all the hard motor theory ppl just threw up their hands and were like "purely auditory phonetic perception is impossible" without any practical exposure to extremely nonlinear classification problems like we have a little bit of now via ANNs.

    some self tags so I can find this thread later

  12. Our new study is about to be submitted! We demonstrate that the effect of a background noise on #SpeechPerception is multifaceted, even in the case of a simple stationary white noise. You can find the #preprint on @biorxivpreprint (biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/20), the raw and processed data on #zenodo (zenodo.org/record/7476407#.Y67), and the #preregistration document on #OSF (osf.io/4ju3f/). #psycholinguistics #psychoacoustics #psycholinguistique @psycholinguistics

  13. #introduction 2/3
    I study arm reaching-grasping behaviors and speech production/perception, but sometimes I also have fun doing something with solo and ensemble musicians!
    #Brain #MotorControl #SpeechScience #SpeechPerception #MusicNeuroscience #SocialNeuroscience
    I use Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (#TMS), Motion Capture (#MoCap), Electroencephalography (#EEG), Electromyography (#EMG) and all sorts of force/touch sensors I can get my hands on.

  14. CW: Postdoc opportunity

    The New Zealand Institute of Language, Brain and Behaviour is seeking a Post-Doctoral Fellow to join the team of researchers working on a project funded by the Royal Society of New Zealand Marsden Fund "Do patterns of covariation in speech carry social meaning".

  15. Hello #fediverse! As seems to be the tradition, here is my #introduction
    I am a French #CNRS researcher working on #speechperception, #psychophysics, #statistics and #audiology (mostly). I write scientific articles in English (dbao.leo-varnet.fr/publication) and blog posts in French (dbao.leo-varnet.fr/) so I'm always confused about which language I should use on social media...
    Happy to start my #twittermigration by connecting with academics and people interested in science here!
