초록

The present study investigated whether compensation for phonological assimilation is driven by multiple mechanisms, as suggested by Darcy et al. (2009). Native and non-native speakers of Korean were tested on their compensation for the Korean place and nasal assimilations using two different types of experimental tasks, phoneme monitoring and cross-modal priming with a lexical decision, each of which is expected to provoke responses in a low auditory level and a more abstract phonological level. The results demonstrated that native and non-native listeners relied on the acoustic characteristics of the stimuli in the phoneme-monitoring task (Experiment 1), whereas in the lexical decision task, only native listeners employed phonological knowledge of the manner in which assimilation functions in Korean (Experiments 2 and 3). However, compensation for phonological assimilation appeared to operate less strongly in the presence of optional rules than in the presence of obligatory rules. Together, these results suggest that compensation is driven by both language-specific and universal auditory mechanisms at distinct levels.

Abstract

The present study investigated whether compensation for phonological assimilation is driven by multiple mechanisms, as suggested by Darcy et al. (2009). Native and non-native speakers of Korean were tested on their compensation for the Korean place and nasal assimilations using two different types of experimental tasks, phoneme monitoring and cross-modal priming with a lexical decision, each of which is expected to provoke responses in a low auditory level and a more abstract phonological level. The results demonstrated that native and non-native listeners relied on the acoustic characteristics of the stimuli in the phoneme-monitoring task (Experiment 1), whereas in the lexical decision task, only native listeners employed phonological knowledge of the manner in which assimilation functions in Korean (Experiments 2 and 3). However, compensation for phonological assimilation appeared to operate less strongly in the presence of optional rules than in the presence of obligatory rules. Together, these results suggest that compensation is driven by both language-specific and universal auditory mechanisms at distinct levels.
