Description

This scholarly work investigates how speech perception strategies shape morphological structure through innovative research methods. Jennifer Hay uses connectionist modelling, combined with perception and production experiments alongside lexical calculations, to examine two critical factors in speech perception: phonotactics and lexical frequency. The research reveals that low probability phoneme transitions across morpheme boundaries play a significant role in preserving complex word forms, whilst the relative frequency of derived words versus their base forms directly influences how readily these complex words decompose. The findings bridge cognitive science and linguistics, demonstrating how patterns in how people hear and produce speech fundamentally drive the evolution of word structure in language.

Key Features

Uses connectionist modelling to analyse the relationship between speech perception and morphological structure development.

Incorporates perception and production experiments to test how phonotactics influence word formation patterns.

Examines lexical frequency effects on the decomposability of complex words and derived forms.

Demonstrates that low probability phoneme transitions across morpheme boundaries maintain structural complexity in words.

Published by Routledge as part of the Outstanding Dissertations in Linguistics series for academic credibility.
