Keyword: Literacy

Abstract: This study examines phonological competition in spoken word recognition in native English and Japanese-English bilinguals. Using a mouse-tracking task, we hypothesize both groups will show competition from phonemes and syllables, with Japanese speakers experiencing stronger syllabic competition. Data will be analyzed using mixed-effects models for response times, deviations, and errors.
