Listening with eye and hand: Cross-modal contributions to speech perception.

Fowler, Carol A., Dekle, Dawn J.·1991·Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance

Abstract

Three experiments investigated the "McGurk effect" whereby optically specified syllables experienced synchronously with acoustically specified syllables integrate in perception to determine a listener's auditory perceptual experience. Experiments contrasted the cross-modal effect of orthographic on acoustic syllables presumed to be associated in experience and memory with that of haptically experienced and acoustic syllables presumed not to be associated. The latter pairing gave rise to cross-modal influences when Ss were informed that cross-modal syllables were paired independently. Mouthed syllables affected reports of simultaneously heard syllables (and vice versa). These effects were absent when syllables were simultaneously seen (spelled) and heard. The McGurk effect does not arise from association in memory but from conjoint near specification of the same causal source in the environment--in speech, the moving vocal tract producing phonetic gestures.

  • Although the infant results on their own do not provide unequivocal support for an extraexperiential basis, they add to the evidence for linguistic universality, haptic influences, and early sensitivity to audiovisual speech correspondence.

    “To summarize, although our infant results on their own do not provide unequivocal support for an extraexperiential basis, they do add to the evidence for linguistic universality (Massaro et al., 1993), haptic influences (Fowler & Dekle, 1991), and early sensitivity to audiovisual speech correspondence (see, e.g., Walton & Bower, 1993) toward these ends.”

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.
