PREDICTING SPEECH PRODUCTION – Facilitation but no Inhibition
Eleanor,Drake; PPLS; e.k.e.drake@sms.ed.ac.uk
Although picture-naming studies have contributed significantly to understandings of speech production,rnparticularly of item-specific effects such as age-of-acquisition, the findings of studies of context-specific effects (i.e., where context is manipulated via the use of distractor items) have been less conclusive. This has led tornwidespread recognition that the nature of information-flow through the speech production system is vulnerablernto subtle variations in task, to the extent that similar paradigms can produce apparently contradictory findingsrn(e.g., Madebach et al., 2011).
