3. 2. Cognitive and neural mechanisms of inflectional morphology processing : Studies of native speakers and second language learners of Swedish

4. 3. Perceptual reorganization of vowels : Separating the linguistic and acoustic parts of the mismatch response

   Författare :Ellen Marklund; Francisco Lacerda; Iris-Corinna Schwarz; Riitta Salmelin; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; language acquisition; infants; speech perception; MMR; MMN; perceptual reorganization; Linguistics; lingvistik;
