Subject: Re: Standardized Vowel-Consonant-Vowel Stimuli From: Joseph DW Stephens <jdstephe@xxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 12 Jan 2011 14:04:51 -0500 List-Archive:<http://lists.mcgill.ca/scripts/wa.exe?LIST=AUDITORY>Hi, I was informed of a recent post to this list looking for Vowel-Consonant-Vowel stimuli. Lori Holt and I have developed a set of resynthesized natural VCV tokens with consonants ranging from /b/-/d/-/g/, in four vowel contexts: /a/, /ae/, /i/, /u/ (i.e., individual stimuli sound like /aba/, /igi/, /udu/, etc.) We have used this set of stimuli in audiovisual speech perception studies, among other things (Ex. Stephens, J.D.W., & Holt, L.L. (2010). Learning to use an artificial visual cue in speech identification. JASA 128(4), 2138). The stimuli and some documentation are available here: http://www.psy.cmu.edu/~lholt/php/StephensHoltStimuli.php and here: http://www.u.arizona.edu/~alotto/ACNS/StimuLibrary.htm An article describing these stimuli is currently under consideration at a journal and will hopefully appear some time in 2011. Any questions, please feel free to contact me: jdstephe@xxxxxxxx Hope this is helpful. Cheers, Beau Stephens -- Joseph D.W.
