Abstract

Psycholinguists define spoken word recognition (SWR) as, roughly, the processes intervening between speech perception and sentence processing, whereby a sequence of speech elements is mapped to a phonological wordform. After reviewing points of consensus and contention in SWR, we turn to the focus of this review: considering the limitations of theoretical views that implicitly assume an idealized (neurotypical, monolingual adult) and static perceiver. In contrast to this assumption, we review evidence that SWR is plastic throughout the life span and changes as a function of cognitive and sensory changes, modulated by the language(s) someone knows. In highlighting instances of plasticity at multiple timescales, we are confronted with the question of whether these effects reflect changes in content or in processes, and we consider the possibility that the two are inseparable. We close with a brief discussion of the challenges that plasticity poses for developing comprehensive theories of spoken language processing. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Linguistics, Volume 10 is January 2024. Please see http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates for revised estimates.

口语单词识别:关注可塑性

心理语言学家将口语识别(SWR)大致定义为介于语音感知和句子处理之间的过程，即语音元素序列被映射到语音形式。在回顾了SWR的共识和争论点之后，我们转向本综述的重点:考虑到隐含假设理想化(神经典型，单语成人)和静态感知者的理论观点的局限性。与这一假设相反，我们回顾了证据，表明SWR在整个生命周期中是可塑的，并且随着认知和感觉变化而变化，受人所知语言的调节。在强调可塑性在多个时间尺度的实例时，我们面临的问题是，这些影响是否反映了内容或过程的变化，我们认为这两者是不可分割的可能性。最后，我们简要讨论了可塑性对发展口语处理的综合理论所带来的挑战。预计最终在线出版日期为语言学年度评论，第10卷是2024年1月。修订后的估计数请参阅http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates。

期刊介绍： The Annual Review of Linguistics, in publication since 2015, covers significant developments in the field of linguistics, including phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics, and their interfaces. Reviews synthesize advances in linguistic theory, sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, neurolinguistics, language change, biology and evolution of language, typology, as well as applications of linguistics in many domains.
