| 요약 | Successfully grappling with the widespread linguistic variation of daily life requires speakers to adapt to systematic variation in the environment while discarding incidental variation, based on their prior experience. In the case of phonotactics, speakers' prior experience is that talkers who differ in their language background are likely to vary in their phonotactic grammars, while talkers who share a language variety are unlikely to do so. As such, we predict that when speakers are exposed to multiple talkers whose phonotactics vary, and those talkers differ in their language background, listeners will infer the variation is systematic and adapt. Conversely, if the talkers share a language background, listeners will infer the variation is incidental, and not adapt. In Study 1, we tested this prediction in a perception experiment, by exposing listeners to two talkers, each of whom exhibited a different phonotactic constraint, in a recognition memory task. In Experiment 1, when listeners were exposed to talkers who differed in their language background (1 English vs. 1 French talker), they showed a high degree of adaptation |
