separatemeans: Supervised/unsupervised phonetic adaptation (Experiment 2)

Description Usage Format Details

Description

Data from a follow-up experiment that manipulated /b/ and /p/ mean VOTs separately, using only unsupervised distributional learning. There are five conditions: (-80,50), (-50,50), (-20,50), (10,50), (10,80). The cleaned dataset (with random responders removed) is separatemeans_clean, and the excluded data is in separatemeans_excluded. Assignment metadata (including audioequipment and useragent is in separatemeans_assignments

Usage

1

Format

The main dataset is a data.frame/tbl_df with 36,208 observations of 57 variables. It has the columns from supunsup, plus

pvotCond

Mean VOT of /p/ distribution

is_test

TRUE for test block, FALSE for exposure block

The assignments metadata is a data.frame/tbl_df with 124 observations of 10 variables:

subject

Anonymized worker ID

assignmentid

MTurk assignment ID

hitid

MTurk HIT ID

accepttime

When assignment was accepted

submittime

When assignment was submitted

audioequip

Subjects' self-reported audio equipment

comments

Subjects' comments after completing the experiment. The prompt was "Enter any comments you have below. Did anything seem weird? Were you hearing anything besides the choices we gave you?"

errors

Not used in this experiment

practiceResp

Not used in this experiment

userAgent

The browser userAgent string.

Details

Because of the greater separation between clusters this introduces, there's an additional test phase after the main part of the experiment, where subjects classify a flat continuum from -10ms to 50ms VOT, repeated 10 times each.

Subjects classifying at less than 80 -10 and 80ms VOT are excluded in separatemeans_clean.
