dc.description.abstract | It is commonly thought that phonological learning is different in young children compared to
adults, possibly due to the speech processing system not yet having reached full native-language
specialization. However, the neurocognitive mechanisms of phonological learning in
children are poorly understood. We employed magnetoencephalography (MEG) to track
cortical correlates of incidental learning of meaningless word forms over two days as 6–8-
year-olds overtly repeated them. Native (Finnish) pseudowords were compared with words
of foreign sound structure (Korean) to investigate whether the cortical learning effects would
be more dependent on previous proficiency in the language rather than maturational factors.
Half of the items were encountered four times on the first day and once more on the following
day. Incidental learning of these recurring word forms manifested as improved repetition
accuracy and a correlated reduction of activation in the right superior temporal cortex, similarly
for both languages and on both experimental days, and in contrast to a salient left-hemisphere
emphasis previously reported in adults. We propose that children, when learning
new word forms in either native or foreign language, are not yet constrained by left-hemispheric
segmental processing and established sublexical native-language representations.
Instead, they may rely more on supra-segmental contours and prosody. | |
