婴儿如何学习母语的语音模式？到第一年年底，婴儿已经掌握了他们输入语言的音韵学和音韵学的详细方面。然而，这一过程背后的学习机制的结构在很大程度上是未知的。在这项研究中，9个月大的婴儿有机会在3个实验中诱导特定的语音模式，其中音节结构，辅音发声位置和音段位置被操纵。然后让婴儿熟悉流利的语言，其中包含符合或违反这些模式的单词。随后的测试表明，婴儿能迅速提取新的语音符号，而且这个过程受到限制，使得一些符号比其他符号更容易获得。
How do infants learn the sound patterns of their native language? By the end of the 1st year, infants have acquired detailed aspects of the phonology and phonotactics of their input language. However, the structure of the learning mechanisms underlying this process is largely unknown. In this, study, 9-month-old infants were given the opportunity to induce specific phonological patterns in 3 experiments in which syllable structure, consonant voicing position, and segmental position were manipulated. Infants were then familiarized with fluent speech containing words that either fit or violated these patterns. Subsequent testing revealed that infants rapidly extracted new phonological regularities and that this process was constrained such that some regularities were easier to acquire than others.
