在黑猩猩和人类中研究了元音[a]后面的辅音的感知，使用反应时间任务，其中将音节辨别的反应时间作为辅音之间相似性的指数。使用的辅音是20个自然的法语辅音和6个自然和合成的日语停止辅音。聚类和MDSCAL分析的反应时间的歧视的法国辅音表明，发音的方式是主要的决定因素的结构的感知辅音的黑猩猩。对塞音的辨别表明，黑猩猩的主要分类是通过发声。从嘴唇到软腭的发音位置仅在二维MDSCAL空间中的合成清音塞音的感知中再现。黑猩猩还分别使用合成的[ga]-[ka]和[ba]-[da]连续音来检查发音和发音位置特征的音素边界效应（类别感知）。黑猩猩在软腭浊和清音之间的语音边界处或附近以及浊双唇和肺泡塞音之间表现出增强的辨别力。这些结果表明，黑猩猩识别辅音的基本机制与人类相似，尽管黑猩猩在识别辅音方面不如人类准确。
The perception of consonants which were followed by the vowel [a] was studied in chimpanzees and humans, using a reaction time task in which reaction times for discrimination of syllables were taken as an index of similarity between consonants. Consonants used were 20 natural French consonants and six natural and synthetic Japanese stop consonants. Cluster and MDSCAL analyses of reaction times for discrimination of the French consonants suggested that the manner of articulation is the major determinant of the structure of the perception of consonants by the chimpanzees. Discrimination of stop consonants suggested that the major grouping in the chimpanzees was by voicing. The place of articulation from the lips to the velum was reproduced only in the perception of the synthetic unvoiced stop consonants in the two dimensional MDSCAL space. The phoneme-boundary effect (categorical perception) for the voicing and place-of-articulation features was also examined by a chimpanzee using synthetic [ga]-[ka] and [ba]-[da] continua, respectively. The chimpanzee showed enhanced discriminability at or near the phonetic boundaries between the velar voiced and unvoiced and also between the voiced bilabial and alveolar stops. These results suggest that the basic mechanism for the identification of consonants in chimpanzees is similar to that in humans, although chimpanzees are less accurate than humans in discrimination of consonants.
