  • 운동이론(motor theory)에 따르면 조음에 관한 정보는 말소리 지각에 중요한 역할을 한다고 한다. 조음에 관한 시각정보가 자음지각에 중요함을 시사하는 것이 바로 McGurk 효과이다. McGurk 효과는 말소리 지각에서 청각정보와 시각정보가 상충될 때 지각의 결과는 청각에 의한 조음정보와 시각에 의한 조음정보가 통합(integration)되어서 나타나는 것을 말한다. 예컨대, 시각적으로는 /ga/를 발음하는 모습을 보여주면서 동시에 청각적으로는 /ba/를 들려주면 그 결과로 /da/로 지각된다. 마찬가지로 시각적으로는 /ka/를, 청각적으로는 /ma/를 제시하면 /na/로 지각된다. 따라서 McGurk 효과는 시각적인 조음 정보가 자동적으로, 무의식적으로 말소리 지각과정에 통합됨은 보여준다. 한편 이러한 McGurk 효과는 문화마다 그 강도가 다르게 나타난다는 보고가 있다(Sekiyama, 1997). 예컨대, 일본가 중국 원어민의 경우 미국 원어민보다 McGurk 효과가 약하게 나타났다. 본 연구는 한국인에게는 McGurk 효과가 어떠한 양상으로 나타날지를 규명해 보고 아울러 기존의 미국, 일본 그리고 중국 원어민에 대한 연구결과와 비교 분석해 보았다.

  • Nanta means "tapping" using percussion instruments such as drums, which is the rhythm of Samulnori, a tradtional Korean music. Nanta speech rhythm intervention program was developed and applied for the children with limited speech sound production and investigated its effect. Nanta program provided audible stimulation, various sound loudness and beats, and rhythms. Nanta program consists of three stages : Respiration, phonation and articulation with the rhythm. Six children with language development delay participated in this study. Children were encouraged to explore sounds and beats and freely express sounds and beats. Along with the rhythm, children also were encouraged to produce speech sounds by increasing the length of syllables in mimetic and imitating words. A total of 15 sessions were conducted twice a week for 40 minutes per session. For exploring the effectiveness, raw scores from preschool receptive-expressive scales (PRES) and receptive-expressive vocabulary test (REVT) were obtained and compared before and after therapy. The results demonstrated that significantly improved receptive (p=.027) and expressive language scores (p=.024) in PRES and receptive (p=.028) and expressive (p=.028) vocabulary scores following intervention using Wilcoxon signed-rank test.These findings suggest that the nanta rhythm program can be useful for improving language development and vocabulary in children with limited speech sound production.

  • A speech processing model based on a psycholinguistic approach can identify the specific speech processing deficits of children with speech sound disorders (SSDs) through various pathways. In most cases, the cause of the speech problem with SSD children is unknown, so it is important to identify the underlying strengths and weaknesses for individualized intervention. In addition, because the native language deficits can also affect foreign language production, it is necessary to examine speech processing abilities between the two languages. This study is a preliminary study to develop a Korean-English speech processing task system. Speech production task and speech processing task (DT, PRT, NRT) were conducted both in Korean and English on 10 children with SSD and 20 normal children (NSA). As a result, the SSD group showed significantly lower production ability than the NSA group in both languages. As a result of the speech processing task, there was no significant difference in the discrimination task (DT), while there was a significant difference between language types in the phonological representation task (PRT) and between language types and groups in the nonword repetition task (NRT). The results of this study confirmed that children's native language and foreign language processing skills may be different, and that the sub-tasks of speech processing system should be further subdivided.
