Native Language Magnet Model
new article content ... - Lan experience produces change in child's ability to discriminate sounds and listening preferences, but also results in mapping that alters perception.
unlike categorical perception, perceptual magnet affect appears to only exist in humans,.
Magnet effect: observed when tokens perceived as exceptionally good representatives of phonetic category (prototype) used in tests of speech perception. Many studies indicate that native-language phonetic prototypes evoke special responses when compared with non-prototypes. Prototype in infants appears to function as a magnet for other stimuli in the categotry. Depends on exposure to a specific language
universal perception soon gives way tro language specific mapping that distrorts perception. Revising the perceptual space underlying speech processing.
