Munro","doi":"10.1075/jslp.23029.mun","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1075/jslp.23029.mun","url":null,"abstract":"The term “noise” is often applied to the seemingly random variability that always appears in human data, and which is assumed to be of no interest to the researcher. Some of this variability is unavoidably due to measurement tools or the way in which we use them, and some is due to the unstable nature of human behaviour. In such cases, we may be justified in treating the variability as irrelevant noise. However, we cannot assume that all inexplicable variation is unimportant. Using examples from earlier research, I will argue that individual variability is a phenomenon worthy of study in its own right. Not only can it help us understand the nuances of the learning process, but giving it careful consideration can be a valuable step in determining how to effectively apply research findings in pedagogy.","PeriodicalId":91766,"journal":{"name":"Journal of second language pronunciation","volume":"29 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139253695","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the first task, participants heard Spanish words with target-like pronunciations of 〈g〉 and 〈h〉 or inaccurate pronunciations with an English-like phonemic substitution for these graphemes, and they decided whether or not they were words. The second task had participants decide between the two pronunciations of each Spanish word and select the accurate pronunciation. The findings in both tasks showed that for L2 learners, 〈h〉 cognate words had less accurate phonological representations compared to all other conditions, possibly due to the greater consistency in phoneme-grapheme correspondence for 〈h〉 in English. These results show that cognate status and orthographic (in)congruity interact to influence the accuracy of L2 lexical encoding.","PeriodicalId":91766,"journal":{"name":"Journal of second language pronunciation","volume":"29 24","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139265420","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
