这里报道的实验探索了4至5天大的新生儿使用类似于Blumstein和Stevens [J. Acoust.美国社会67，648-662（1980）]，没有元音稳态信息。结果表明，CV刺激的初始34-44 ms为婴儿提供了足够的信息来区分塞音（[ba] vs [da]，[ba] vs [ga]，[bi] vs [di]，[bi] vs [gi]）和随后的元音质量（[ba] vs [bi]，[da] vs [di]，[ga] vs [gi]）的发音位置差异。这些结果表明，婴儿可以区分音节的基础上的CV信号的起始属性。此外，这个实验表明，新生儿需要很少或根本没有暴露于语音成功地在这样的歧视任务。
The experiment reported here explores the ability of 4- to 5-day-old neonates to discriminate consonantal place of articulation and vowel quality using shortened CV syllables similar to those used by Blumstein and Stevens [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 67, 648-662 (1980)], without vowel steady-state information. The results show that the initial 34-44 ms of CV stimuli provide infants with sufficient information to discriminate place of articulation differences in stop consonants ([ba] vs [da], [ba] vs [ga], [bi] vs [di], and [bi] vs [gi]) and following vowel quality ([ba] vs [bi], [da] vs [di], and [ga] vs [gi]). These results suggest that infants can discriminate syllables on the basis of the onset properties of CV signals. Furthermore, this experiment indicates that neonates require little or no exposure to speech to succeed in such a discrimination task.
