这些实验考察了[a]和[a：]之间的知觉边界是否受到日语词汇中中日和外国层的不同语音结构的影响。我们在[CoC '__]形式的载体非词的末尾呈现了一系列编辑过的自然元音，从[a]到[a：]，并要求受试者判断最后的元音是长还是短，而C和C'是不同的，以形成9个载体，从非常像中日人到非常像外国人。[a]和[a：]之间的感知边界受到C和C '的影响，移动了大约20毫秒，这比在具有相同范式和受试者的单词优越性实验中获得的效果更大，更强大。这些结果对基于词汇激活扩散的语音趋化效应的解释提出了质疑。C在距离歧义段三个音素处的影响不能用简单的段到段的转移概率来解释。
These experiments investigate whether the perceptual boundary between [a] and [a:] is affected by the differing phonotactics of the Sino-Japanese and Foreign strata of the Japanese lexicon. We presented a range of edited natural vowels from [a] to [a:] at the end of carrier nonwords of the form [CoC'__] and asked subjects to judge whether the final vowel was long or short, while C and C' were varied to make 9 carriers ranging from very Sino-Japanese-like to very Foreign-like. The perceptual boundary between [a] and [a:] was affected by both C and C', shifting through about 20 msec—a larger and more robust effect than was obtained in a word-superiority experiment with the same paradigm and subjects. These results cast doubt on explanations of phonotactic effects based on lexical-activation spreading. The influence of C at a distance of three phonemes from the ambiguous segment cannot be explained by simple segment-to-segment transitional probabilities.
