摘要 先前的语音感知实验研究（例如，Cutler、Mehler、Norris 和 Segui 1986）得出的结论是，音节不是英语使用者的词前分割单位。这里报道的一组实验将 Pallier、Sebastian-Galles、Felguera、Christophe 和 Mehler (1993) 的注意音素监控任务应用于美式英语，并证明了使用第二音节重音词时音节结构的强大效果，但使用第一音节重音词时没有这种效果。我们假设与单词重音相关的音节结构方面是检测英语音节效果的重要因素。
Abstract Previous experimental studies in speech perception (e.g., Cutler, Mehler, Norris, & Segui 1986) have concluded that the syllable is not a prelexical segmentation unit for English speakers. The set of experiments reported here applied the attentional phoneme monitoring task of Pallier, Sebastian-Galles, Felguera, Christophe, and Mehler (1993) to American English and demonstrated a robust effect of syllable structure when second-syllable stress words were used, but no such effect with first-syllable stress words. We hypothesize that aspects of syllable structure related to word stress are an important factor in the detection of syllabic effects in English.
