How consistent is listener perception of phonetic imitation in an AXB task? New #LabPhon results by @beth_macleod show listeners vary in their ability to perceive imitation, but consistency across sessions supports reliability of the AXB task. #openaccess doi.org/10.16995/labph…

Are you interested in phonetic imitation? Join us at a satellite workshop of LabPhon on phonetic imitation in Seoul on June 26! We welcome abstracts on anything to do with imitation including works in progress and discussion of new ideas. Deadline Mar 15 labphon.org/labphon19/phon…

Carleton was the annual meeting of the Canadian Linguistic Association (CLA) at York University last week! Asta Stalker presented the results of her undergrad Honours Thesis on the Canadian Shift in Antigonish, NS and did an amazing job!

I'm looking for someone to design a lab website! If you're interested, please send me a DM! Or if you know someone who might be interested, I'd be thankful if you could send this along! Also, a retweet would be much appreciated! 🙏

@urielcohenpriva Yes! Last one was accepted at the end of March last year, so just snuck in under 12 months :)

My new paper with Dr. Sabrina Di Lonardo Burr is now out in the Journal of Phonetics! We look at phonetic imitation of the the acoustic realization of Spanish stress, both of terms of what speakers imitate and how listeners perceive it. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

I hope there are less typos in the paper than there are in this tweet...
