Accounting for rate-dependent category boundary shifts in speech perception

HR Bosker - Attention, Perception, & Psychophysics, 2017 - Springer
The perception of temporal contrasts in speech is known to be influenced by the speech rate
in the surrounding context. This rate-dependent perception is suggested to involve general …
