Abstract

This poster presents findings regarding the auditory processing of homophonous words (e.g. time and thyme) and implications of the results regarding the mental lexicon. With a forced choice paradigm I examined whether listeners use acoustic cues or word frequency information in order to discriminate between homophone readings.
