Wiki Version:
A corpus of stimuli has been developed to support the use of common materials across research laboratories to examine open-set word recognition in school-aged children. The corpus includes (1) 773 monosyllabic target words that are known to be in the lexicon of 5- and 6-year-old children and (2) seven masker passages that are based on a first-grade child’s writing samples. Materials were recorded by a total of 13 talkers (8 women; 5 men). All talkers recorded two masker passages. Three of these talkers (2 women; 1 man) also recorded the target words. Detailed speech acoustic analyses, and their associated audio files, are also provided. The annotated corpus is made freely available online on this site for research purposes. ________________________________________________________________ **If you use these materials, please cite our paper in JASA-EL that describes these stimuli:** Bonino, A.Y. & Malley, A.R.
