One needs to show that a similar "acoustic stimulation" - thru the presentation of repeated 'ba' versus 'da' acoustic tokens does affect perception beyond biasing.<br /><br />If we get the same effects with acoustic stimulation (i.e., biasing effects, and no "perception effects"), then we are none-the-wiser about any "real" speech-perception mechanisms in my opinion.karthik durvasulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14541529987768107005noreply@blogger.com
