In this project, we explore how our speech perception systems affect our speech behaviors. Why do we use our speech in the way that we do? and how does our speech behavior relate to how we listen to our speech? The project consists of series of acoustic and perception experiments. By participating in this project, you will learn basic skills in conducting phonetic experiments, including coming up with stimuli, making high-quality recording, editing the stimuli acoustically, and setting up and running perception experiments. You will also have an opportunity to learn about data analyses and statistics. This project is recommended for anybody who is interested in going to graduate schools in speech-related areas, including audiology, speech pathology, and theoretical linguistics (with emphasis on experimental linguistics). The main activities take place in the phonetics lab on Busch campus. Our lab extensively collaborates with the psycholinguistics lab in the psychology department directed by Prof. Julien Musolino, and you will be a part of this growing interdepartmental experimental linguistics group. Students will learn experimental design, acoustic editing, setting up and running experiments, data analysis, statistics, and other general academic research skills.
