Journal Article
Fernandez, L. B., Hadley, L. V., Koç, A., Gamboa, J. C., & Allen, S. E. (2024). Is there a cost when predictions are not met? A VWP study investigating L1 and L2 speakers. Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, https://doi.org/10.1177/17470218241270200

Research has found that both L1 and L2 speakers make predictions about upcoming linguistic information, with predictive behavior being impacted by individual differences and methodological factors. However, it is not clear if a cost is incurred when... Read More about Is there a cost when predictions are not met? A VWP study investigating L1 and L2 speakers.

Uses of Linguistic Context in Speech Listening: Does Acquired Hearing Loss Lead to Reduced Engagement of Prediction? (2024)
Journal Article
Fernandez, L. B., Pickering, M. J., Naylor, G., & Hadley, L. V. (2024). Uses of Linguistic Context in Speech Listening: Does Acquired Hearing Loss Lead to Reduced Engagement of Prediction?. Ear and Hearing, 45(5), 1107-1114. https://doi.org/10.1097/AUD.0000000000001515

Research investigating the complex interplay of cognitive mechanisms involved in speech listening for people with hearing loss has been gaining prominence. In particular, linguistic context allows the use of several cognitive mechanisms that are not...

Used to be a dime, now it’s a dollar: R-SPiN keyword predictability revisited 40 years on (2024)
Journal Article
Whitley, A., Naylor, G., & Hadley, L. V. (2024). Used to be a dime, now it’s a dollar: R-SPiN keyword predictability revisited 40 years on. Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 67(4), 1229-1242. https://doi.org/10.1044/2024_JSLHR-23-00615

Purpose:

Almost 40 years after its development, in this article, we reexamine the relevance and validity of the ubiquitously used Revised Speech Perception in Noise (R-SPiN) sentence corpus. The R-SPiN corpus includes “high-context” and “low-conte... Read More about Used to be a dime, now it’s a dollar: R-SPiN keyword predictability revisited 40 years on.
