5-MINUTE FORMANT ADAPTATION TASK IN DUTCH CHILDREN
Résumé
The study investigates whether a short formant perturbation experiment elicits an adaptive response under less controlled experimental circumstances. 30 Dutch children were recruited and tested at a festival. They were asked to produce four target words containing an open-mid front rounded vowel /E/ while we manipulated their feedback so that they would hear /I/ for a period of 16 trials. Despite the short adaptation paradigm, our results show that children significantly changed their vowel productions in response to the perturbation. This suggests that long and monotonous experimental paradigms might not always be necessary, especially with populations that have a shorter attention span.
