🎉 New paper out by a member of our group! Are speakers sensitive to lexical bias effects in their own auditory feedback? And do such effects shape speech production? 🚨 Spoiler in the title! journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/... #phonetics #auditoryfeedback #lexicalbias

Lexical Bias Effects do not Influence Responses to Real-Time Temporal Auditory Feedback Perturbation - Miriam Oschkinat, Eva Reinisch, Philip Hoole, 2026
In speech perception, listeners tend to hear real words rather than non-words on a physically balanced real word—non-word continuum (lexical bias effect). Bourg...

🚨New preprint and our results are rather concerning.. We find the "boiling frog" equivalent of AI use. Using large-scale RCTs, we provide *casual* evidence that AI assistance reduces persistence and hurts independent performance. And these effects emerge after just 10–15 minutes of AI use! 1/

The trove of files released by the Department of Justice, illuminates Epstein’s deep interest and entrenchment in the scientific community. But the files also underscore how he used his power and money in ways that kept women out of places where they might succeed. bit.ly/4qWgPLz

The boys’ club: How Epstein’s influence shaped the exclusion of women in STEM
In one email, an AI researcher suggested it’s “hard to be brilliant if you are worrying if you look fat or why another woman hates you.”

🧵 New paper to appear in The Handbook of Linguistics and Multimodality: “Communicating from head to toe”, with @acwiek.bsky.social and @susfuchs.bsky.social 🥰 We review evidence that language is fundamentally physical, shaped by anatomy and biomechanics from your skull to your soles. 🗣️🦵 [1/6]

"One of the reasons the epidemic of violence against women is so unacknowledged is because cases like these are talked about individually, and often treated as though they are shocking aberrations rather than part of a pervasive pattern that operates at all levels of society."

Move over bouba-kiki! New study on crossmodal iconicity shows [r] = rough and [l] = smooth, even in langs that conflate them. The results show "that speech sounds are not just acoustic objects, but they also have a texture and a shape to them". #iconicity 🐦🐦

The alveolar trill is perceived as jagged/rough by speakers of different languages
Typological research shows that across languages, trilled [r] sounds are more common in adjectives describing rough as opposed to smooth surfaces. In this study

Honeybees understand the concept of zero, or "null set", putting them in the same cognitive class as parrots, dolphins and primates in that regard. What's more interesting to me is HOW WE CAN KNOW THAT. The experimental design is what I want to focus on:
