“Many behavioral (63–69) and brain (70–73) studies indicate that native-language phonetic prototypes evoke special responses when compared with nonprototypes.”
From A new view of language acquisition (2000) · cites this paper as [63]
In the citing paper
“our initial studies showed that infants' perception of vowel categories is affected by typicality, as defined by adult speakers of the language (Grieser & Kuhl, 1989).”
From Human adults and human infants show a “perceptual magnet effect” for the prototypes of speech categories, monkeys do not (1991) · cites this paper as Grieser & Kuhl, 1989
In the citing paper
“when the prototype (as opposed to the nonprototype) served as the referent vowel, infants generalized to a significantly larger number of the novel vowels, effectively perceiving a larger speech category.”
From Human adults and human infants show a “perceptual magnet effect” for the prototypes of speech categories, monkeys do not (1991) · cites this paper as Grieser & Kuhl, 1989
In the citing paper
“It is of fundamental importance to the logic of the study that this relatively poor exemplar was always judged as Iii rather than as some other vowel by adults; both the P and the NP were easily identified as exemplars of the Iii category.”
From Human adults and human infants show a “perceptual magnet effect” for the prototypes of speech categories, monkeys do not (1991) · cites this paper as Grieser & Kuhl, 1989
In the citing paper
“The pattern of results seen here replicate and extend that obtained by Grieser and Kuhl (1989) using twice the number of stimuli and slightly different training procedures, thus demonstrating the robustness of the effect.”
From Human adults and human infants show a “perceptual magnet effect” for the prototypes of speech categories, monkeys do not (1991) · cites this paper as Grieser and Kuhl (1989)
In the citing paper
“In Grieser and Kuhl ( 1989), the mean number of trials to criterion was significantly higher for the NP group.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
