Reinterpreting loanword adaptations: the role of perception (2003, background): “During phonetic decoding, a given input sound will be mapped onto the closest available phonetic category, where ‘closest’ is defined in terms of either acoustic proximity [ 16 ] or proximity in the sense of fine-grained articulatory gestures [17]; thus, phonological proximity as reflected in the fe”
Indeterminacy in language acquisition: the role of child directed speech and joint attention (2004, methodology): “Further extending the emphasis on learning in language acquisition, a growing number of theoretical and experimental studies are developing a position in which social interaction and learning plays a much more central role in language acquisition (Carpenter & Tomasello, 2000; Goldberg, 1995; Kuhl, 2”
Age and Second Language Acquisition and Processing: A Selective Overview (2006, background): “Under such a design, the confounding effects of L1 representational entrenchment (on L1 entrenchment, see Kuhl, 2000; MacWhinney, 2005a) and L1 use would be minimized.”

An association between mothers’ speech clarity and infants’ speech discrimination skills (2003, background): “Regarding the potential role of speech clarity in infants’ perception of speech, infants in the second half of the first year of life are rapidly acquiring information about the phonetic and phonotactic patterns typical of their native language, a conclusion supported by a wide range of studies (Jus”
Multimodal Language Analysis with Recurrent Multistage Fusion (2018, background): “This represents a prior over the expression of sentiment in human multimodal language and is closely related to the strong connections between language and speech in human communication (Kuhl, 2000).”

CRITICAL PERIOD REGULATION 569 Exploiting statistical properties of language input (see Kuhl 2000), the auditory perceptual map is refined by six months of age to eliminate nonnative phoneme distinctions (like “r” from “l” in Japanese).”
Implications for educational practice of the science of learning and development (2019, background): “Neuroscientists have also demonstrated that the development of neural pathways is associated with exposure to and generation of language (Kuhl, 2000).”
