Meeting Description: 

(Session of ABRALIN50)

Experimental phonetics has increasingly contributed to the development of
phonological theories. Researchers nowadays have access to a number of
programs (e.g. PRAAT, TP-Worken, VocalTractLab, DMDX, PHON) that allow for a
more detailed description of segments and speech prosody, including acoustic,
perceptual, and articulatory data, as well as speech processing data. The role
of the phonetic detail in the development of the phonological system has been
investigated in studies on language acquisition (e.g., Albano, 2011, Vehman,
2014) in the field of linguistic variation (Bybee, 2010, Cristófaro-Silva,
Fonseca, Cantoni, 2011) and in the research on the development of a second
language (Ellis, 1998; Flege, 2007; Fowler et al., 2008; Zimmer, Silveira,
Alves, 2009). 

Considering the growing number of studies in this area, we invite researchers
in the field of phonetics or laboratory phonology (Pierrehumbert, Beckman,
Ladd (2000) to present papers that contribute to the discussion about the role
of phonetic detail, highlighting theoretical and methodological questions
relevant to the discussion about the role of variability in the acquisition of
an L1 or in the development of an L2. Some relevant themes for this symposium
are the relationship between speech perception and production, the
contributions of phonetics to phonological theories, the way in which lexical
factors influence the development of phonetic-phonological components,
methodological challenges for the investigation of the role of the phonetic
detail in speech perception and production. This symposium welcomes research
in the fields of formal linguistics, applied linguistics, and
psycholinguistics, in order to promote a further opportunity for dialogue
between the different fields and debate on the challenges faced by researchers
in conducting their research. Considering this wealth of possibilities, this
symposium intends to demonstrate the wide range of studies related to this
topic, developed in different Post-Graduate Programs.
