Abstract | Three experiments explored infants' attention to conflicting cues at different ages. Found when stress and statistical cues indicated different word boundaries, 9-month-olds used syllable stress as a cue to segmentation while ignoring statistical cues. Seven-month-olds attended more to statistical cues than to stress cues. Results suggested infants use statistical learning abilities to locate words in speech and use those words to discover regular patterns of stress cues in English. (Author/KB) |
