This meta-analysis of 31 studies aimed to determine the effectiveness of perception-based
high variability phonetic training (HVPT) for second language (L2) production learning and …

One of the primary questions of second language (L2) acquisition research is how a new
sound category is formed to allow for an L2 contrast that does not exist in the learner's first …

This study investigated whether speaker variability in phonetic training benefits vowel
learnability by Arabic learners of English. Perception training using High-Variability stimuli in …

Substantial research suggests that high variability (multitalker) phonetic training helps
second language (L2) adults improve differentiation of challenging nonnative speech …

Japanese adults and Spanish-Catalan children received auditory phonetic training for
English vowels using a novel paradigm, a version of the common children's card game …

High variability phonetic training using perceptual tasks such as identification and
