Lab Meeting, Summer 2016, Week 13

Awe- and Aw-inspiring readings (or just stuff you think deserves a mention)

Keetels et al. (2015). RECALIBRATION OF AUDITORY PHONEMES BY LIPREAD SPEECH IS EAR-SPECIFIC. A good read to discuss whether lipread- vs. lexically-guided adaptation involve different mechanisms or not -XX

What we did over last week

Florian

1. Edited Esteban's thesis Ch 4 and 5 one last time.

2. Edited Zach's paper on right-context effects in accent adaptation.

3. Edited Linda's paper on causal inference during speech perception.

4. Edited Geertje's abstract for DGfS.

5. Feedback on experiment ideas to Xin. We talked about cross-talker generalization, causal inference (cf. Linda's work), scaling from one to many contrasts (Cf. Zach's work), etc.

6. Feedback to Eleanor Chodroff on her really cool paper on VOT co-variation across place of articulation (and voicing) in lab-elicited and conversational speech.

7. Declined 1 review request.

Kodi

1. Moved to Columbus. Lots of unpacking.

2. Met with Zach about various data preprocessing and outlier detection issues.

3. Catching up on my inbox. (Fell pretty far behind during the move).

4. Worked on manuscript reporting replication of Clarke & Garrett (2004).

Xin

Andrew

1. Still chugging away at CrowdExp

   • Threw out the comment system I was using for feedback in favor of a better one still under active development and that can email about followups
   • Worked on displaying threaded comments with new comment system

Esteban

Dave

1. Wrote society for neurobiology of language talk, made slides, did practice talk.

Dan

Amanda

1. Saw family and friends.
2. Attended yet another wedding.
3. Worried about the work I'm not doing...
4. Met with the RAs to check in with studies.

Zach

Linda

1. Read Anne Pier & Mike's draft of their chapter on eyetracking.

2. Created script to join together stimuli in various pseudorandom orders and ISIs to see if we can come up with a way to arrange the Kraljic stimuli in a way that makes a tongue twister plausible.
3. Wrote up Exp2 for Pen in Mouth.
4. Looked at the intelligibility ratings for the BB08 project.
5. More quals reading.

Wednesday

1. Writing
2. Looking into BNC as potential source for investigating cross-talker variability in syntax
