授業の概要 Course Overview
The mission of this course is to facilitate an understanding of key facets of Linguistics and foster the development of leaders who posess a "Frontier Spirit".
With this course, students will gain an understanding of Psycholinguistics by exploring how infants and adults learn language sounds.
By studying this course you will be able to:
• identify the stages in babies’ development of phoneme categories in their L1,
• predict whether a phonemic contrast will be easy or hard for an L2 learner to learn, depending on their L1.
• identify the stages in babies’ development of phoneme categories in their L1,
• predict whether a phonemic contrast will be easy or hard for an L2 learner to learn, depending on their L1.

担当教員のプロフィール About the Instructor
Alexander Kilpatrick is an assistant professor at the Nagoya University of Business and Commerce. He holds a Ph.D. from the University of Melbourne. Alexander's main area of research involves examining the influence of transitional probability on non-native speech perception. More specifically, it focuses on the chance of sounds co-occurring in a language and makes predictions as to how listeners will misperceive non-native speech based on that chance.
He is available to meet with students on Wednesdays 11:20 - 12:50 in room 6306.
His areas of interest include Speech perception, Iconicity, Psycholinguistics, Neurolinguistics, Transitional Probability, Phonetics, and Phonology.
