description: Il volume raccoglie gli atti e i materiali di un seminario di studi e di una mostra bibliografica tenutisi in occasione del primo centenario della Grande guerra presso la Scuola di Ingegneria e Architettura dell’Università di Bologna. Gli interventi indagano l’applicazione e lo sviluppo, in ambito bellico, di tecnologie ingegneristiche che da un lato espressero un tragico potenziale distruttivo, dall’altro ebbero nel conflitto un’occasione di sviluppo. Vi si tratta dell’importanza strategica del petrolio come carburante per navi, carrarmati e aerei e come fonte di energia per le fabbriche, dello sviluppo delle tecniche di mappatura del territorio, la fotogrammetria aerea, delle nuove drammatiche modalità di combattimento e costruzione di ordigni bellici, senza trascurare il più generale contesto dello sviluppo industriale italiano legato alla produzione di armamenti. In appendice si pubblica il catalogo dell’esposizione, tenutasi nell’atrio della Scuola di Ingegneria e Architettura, progettata negli anni ’30 dall’architetto Giuseppe Vaccaro. Questa parte del volume indaga l’interesse tecnico-scientifico dei professori e degli studenti della Scuola d’applicazione per gli ingegneri di Bologna verso il conflitto mondiale; vi sono descritti alcuni documenti bibliografici conservati nelle raccolte storiche della Biblioteca Interdipartimentale di Ingegneria e Architettura. Inoltre lo spoglio della documentazione amministrativa conservata presso l’Archivio Storico dell’Università di Bologna ha fatto riemergere il coinvolgimento umano e l’interesse più generale della comunità, che alla Scuola faceva riferimento: l’entusiasmo degli studenti desiderosi di partecipare al conflitto, lo strazio dei molti lutti e la celebrazione della memoria dei caduti.
Misattribution of Cognitive Dissonance : Assessing the Reliability of Extant Literature and Meta-analysis
Creators: name: Tomita, Ross

Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2021

description: Cognitive dissonance theory describes the aversive affective state that results from considering two conflicting cognitions. This cognitive dissonance often propels an individual to change one of these cognitions in a way that resolves the conflict. However, previous research has shown that individuals are less likely to change existing cognitions if they misattribute their dissonance to a source other than conflicting conditions. Previous research has investigated misattribution as a method that can be misattributed to a source other than the true cause - conflicting cognitions. Generally, when someone is placed in a state of cognitive dissonance, they are amenable to changing their beliefs or behavior in order to reduce dissonance. However, misattribution research finds that people are less likely to change their beliefs or behavior when given a stimulus that they can misattribute their dissonance to. As a result of the recent replication crisis, we have reason to believe that some areas of research may not be as reliable as previously thought. Even phenomena thought to be reliable, and conceptually replicated many times, have been shown to be lacking substantial evidence (e.g., ego-depletion effects). The aim of the present study was to determine the reliability of the literature investigating misattribution of cognitive dissonance. A meta-analysis of the literature was conducted to determine it’s reliability. The articles were tested for publication bias using the p-curve technique. Results showed that there appears to be reliable support for the misattribution phenomenon, and that there is no detectable p-hacking and/or publication bias in the extant literature.

description: The goal of this study is to identify the optimum conditions for ochratoxin A (OTA) biodegradation by the supernatant of Agaricus campestris strain. The Plackett–Burman and Box–Behnken methods were used to determine optimum OTA degradation conditions of Agaricus campestris under various incubation conditions. The Plackett–Burman method was planned through 16 varied experiments with 15 variants. The three most potent variants, sucrose, yeast extract and wheat bran, were selected using the Box–Behnken methodology. Ochratoxin A biodegradation ratio of 46.67% has been specified in only 1 h under ideal growing conditions. This is the first report on the optimization of OTA biodegradation by Agaricus campestris. When compared to previously published articles, it can be asserted that Agaricus campestris has promise based on its OTA biodegradation ratio in only 1 h of reaction time.

description: Correlations among Shimura’s parameter (dCo) from spectrochemical series for 34 ligands and electronic descriptors from density functional theory calculations are reported. Simple and multiple linear regression models were constructed. The best results were obtained with the descriptors estimated with MN15 functional, obtaining a multiple linear regression model based on a quantitative structure–property relationship (QSPR) approach, with four attributes and the statistical parameters: R2 = 0.8543, Q2LOO = 0.8050, and Q2LMO = 0.7977. The four molecular descriptors are ligand field splitting (Δ), dipole moment (χC), enthalpy of the metal complex (HC) and the ligand HOMO energy (EHO_L). This model obtained for the Ni(0) complexes represents a novel approach to the spectroscopic series description based on computational tools also revising the models proposed from Werner’s description until modern recompilations carried out across the spectroscopic series developments. The applicability of the model was evaluated on cooper complexes and good prediction of the dCo values for some ligands was also obtained.

description: After the financial crisis of 2008, central banks around the world have increased their communication efforts to reach consumers, with the aim of both guiding and anchoring their inflation expectations. For the expectations channel of monetary policy to work as intended, central banks need a thorough understanding of the formation process of expectations by the general public and of the relationship between expectations and economic choices. This warrants reliable and detailed data on consumers' expectations of macroeconomic variables such as inflation or interest rates. We, thus, survey the available survey data and issues regarding the measurement of macroeconomic expectations. Furthermore, we discuss the research frontier on important aspects of the expectations channel: We evaluate the evidence on whether expectations are formed consistently with standard macroeconomic relationships, discuss the insights with respect to the anchoring of inflation expectations, explore the role of narratives and preferences and lastly, we survey the research on causal effects of central bank communication on expectations and economic choices.

description: In Germany, Turkish-origin students face negative competence-related stereotypes held by different groups in society, including teachers at school. While a large body of research has examined stereotypes (i.e., other-stereotypes) about immigrant students, little is known about their own competence-related meta-stereotypes, i.e., beliefs regarding the other-stereotypes that outgroup peers hold about them. The present study addresses this research gap by examining Turkish- and German-origin students’ meta-stereotypes about two dimensions of competencies not yet investigated, namely Turkish- and German-origin students’ subject-related German competence as well as their general school competence using a newly developed instrument combining verbal and non-verbal measures. These assessments are juxtaposed to the evaluations of a group of peers with other immigrant backgrounds (i.e., others’ meta-stereotypes). In line with previous evidence, we found positive meta-stereotypes (as well as other- and others’ meta-stereotypes) towards German-origin students reported by all three groups. However, our study is the first that supports the existence of negative meta-stereotypes (as well as other- and others’ meta-stereotypes) towards Turkish-origin adolescents, again, among all participants. This pattern was particularly pronounced regarding the dimension of subject-related German competence. We discuss the findings’ potential relevance for students’ self-concepts and intergroup interactions in classrooms.

description: Deep-space optical communication links operate under severely limited signal power, approaching the photon-starved regime which requires a receiver capable of measuring individual incoming photons. This makes the photon information efficiency (PIE), i.e. the number of bits that can be retrieved from a single received photon, a relevant figure of merit to characterize data rates achievable in deep-space scenarios. Here we review theoretical PIE limits assuming a scalable modulation format, such as pulse position modulation (PPM), combined with a photon counting direct detection receiver. For unrestricted signal bandwidth, the attainable PIE is effectively limited by the background noise acquired by the propagating optical signal. The actual PIE limit depends on the effectiveness of the noise rejection mechanism implemented at the receiver, which can be improved by the nonlinear optical technique of quantum pulse gating. Further enhancement is possible by resorting to photon number resolved detection, which improves discrimination of PPM pulses against weak background noise. The results are compared with the ultimate quantum mechanical PIE limit implied by the Gordon-Holevo capacity bound, which takes into account general modulation formats as well as any physically permitted measurement techniques.

description: Ease of retrieval experiences occur when an individual experiences difficulty in recalling many cognitions/reasons for a particular position. When recalling reasons for or against a given position, the subjective experience of difficulty in recalling many reasons/cognitions can lead an individual to arrive at a judgement opposite to their own stance. The experienced difficulty of recalling many reasons/cognitions can therefore be viewed as diagnostic towards the judgment of whether or not the recalled information is true. This goes against content-based models of judgment which suggest that the more recalled content in favor of a given judgment, the more likely one is to view it as correct. As a result of the replication crisis in psychology, there is reason to suspect that some fields of research are not as reliable as has been previously thought. The aim of the present study was to determine the reliability of the literature on ease of retrieval experiences. A meta-analysis of the literature was conducted to determine it’s reliability. The articles were tested for publication bias using the p-curve technique. Results showed that there appears to be reliable support for the ease of retrieval phenomenon, and that there is no detectable p-hacking and/or publication bias in the extant literature.

description: The purpose of this work is to describe the orkg-Leaderboard software designed to extract leaderboards defined as task–dataset–metric tuples automatically from large collections of empirical research papers in artificial intelligence (AI). The software can support both the main workflows of scholarly publishing, viz. as LaTeX files or as PDF files. Furthermore, the system is integrated with the open research knowledge graph (ORKG) platform, which fosters the machine-actionable publishing of scholarly findings. Thus, the systemsss output, when integrated within the ORKG’s supported Semantic Web infrastructure of representing machine-actionable ‘resources’ on the Web, enables: (1) broadly, the integration of empirical results of researchers across the world, thus enabling transparency in empirical research with the potential to also being complete contingent on the underlying data source(s) of publications; and (2) specifically, enables researchers to track the progress in AI with an overview of the state-of-the-art across the most common AI tasks and their corresponding datasets via dynamic ORKG frontend views leveraging tables and visualization charts over the machine-actionable data. Our best model achieves performances above 90% F1 on the leaderboard extraction task, thus proving orkg-Leaderboards a practically viable tool for real-world usage. Going forward, in a sense, orkg-Leaderboards transforms the leaderboard extraction task to an automated digitalization task, which has been, for a long time in the community, a crowdsourced endeavor.

Efficient model-correction-based reliability analysis of uncertain dynamical systems

description: The scope of this paper is to apply a model-correction-based strategy for efficient reliability analysis of uncertain dynamical systems based on a low-fidelity (LF) model whose outcomes are corrected in a probabilistic sense to represent the more realistic outcomes of a high-fidelity (HF) model. In the model-correction approach utilized, the LF model is calibrated to the HF model close to the so-called most probable point in standard normal space, which allows a more realistic assessment of the considered complex dynamical system. Since only few expensive limit state function evaluations of the HF model are required, an efficient reliability analysis is enabled. In an application example, the LF model describes an existing single-span railway bridge modelled as simply supported Euler–Bernoulli beam subjected to moving single forces representing the axle loads of a moving train. The HF modelling approach accounts for the bridge–train interaction by modelling the passing train as mass-spring-damper system, however increasing the computational effort of the limit state function evaluations. Failure probabilities evaluated with the model-correction approach are contrasted and discussed with failure probabilities of the sophisticated bridge–train interaction model evaluated with the first-order reliability method (FORM). It is demonstrated that the efficiency of the method depends on the correlation between the LF and the HF model. A comparison of the results of FORM and the model-correction-based approach shows that the latter provides reliable failure probability prediction of the HF model while leading to a significant reduction in computational effort.
ANALYSIS OF THE USE OF MARKETING PROGRAMS IN LEADING GLOBAL COMPANIES

description: According to global practices, U.S. companies were among the first to prioritize the use of marketing programs. In this context, it is important to highlight the statement made by Jack Welch, the CEO of General Electric (GE), a company considered a "driver" of the U.S. industrial sector. Welch stated: "It is necessary to incorporate innovations into the company’s operations by anticipating changes in market demands; otherwise, the company’s activities will face a crisis." This statement indicates the direct link between a company’s operational efficiency and the use of marketing programs. Additionally, it is well documented that during Jack Welch’s tenure (1981-2001), GE's economic efficiency improved dramatically compared to previous leadership. As a result, when Welch retired in 2001, he was awarded a retirement package worth $417 million

description: Scheduled meetings are associated with standardization and understood as a bureaucratic form of coordination, control, and rule observation. In attending assemblies of a research team in optical physics for over a year, we found regular lab meetings are compulsory for all their members and are an avenue to announce and give information about new and changed institutional regulations, to supervise members’ activities and their output. But more importantly, they offer an environment for continuous thinking through talk that goes beyond announcements. Meetings are a protected space to comment on conducted research, to amend experimental set-ups, to test argumentation, and to outline potentially new directions of research. By participating in these practices, researchers, become members of the team as they get acquainted with the ongoing research; its scope, problems, and limits; the solutions at hand; and the know-how within the team. In functional terms, observed internal meetings seem to (a) ensure that the research team focuses on a specific research agenda by talking about and discussing ongoing research in the lab, (b) be used to discuss and assure the quality of the team’s research output, and (c) generate and inspire new research within the team. Our findings suggest regular internal meetings, like shop talk, are constitutive of doing science by talking about ongoing research.

Temple at Tel Arad
Creators: name: Shishkova, Kristina
Publisher: name: Database of Religious History (DRH)
Year: 2023

description: The Temple of Tel Arad is located within the military fort of Arad in the semi-arid Beersheba-Arad valley of the northeastern Negev in the southern Levant. The site of Tel Arad itself was originally excavated by Yohanon Aharoni and Ruth Amiran from 1962–1967. A final report for these excavations was never published, though substantive preliminary reports were published by Herzog (2002) and Singer-Avitz (2002). As a result of early excavation methodology, subsequent building atop the site, and slow progress toward publication, the exact dating of the Temple has been contested. The temple was originally understood as in use from the 10th through the end of the 8th century BCE (Stratum XI–VIII), a period of 350 years (Herzog et al. 1984). However, a re-evaluation of the stratigraphy and material culture have clarified that it was only operational in Stratum X and IX, a period of 50 years spanning from the middle to the late 8th century BCE with its termination appearing to predate the invasion of Judah by the the Assyrian Empire under Sennacherib in 701 BCE (Herzog 2002: 14, 49–50). During the 8th century BCE this region and the fort of Tel Arad were under the sway of the Judahite administration based in Jerusalem. As such, and while we lack specific textual or inscriptional data dating to this period, we may postulate that certain features of Judahite religious practice as indicated within the Hebrew Bible were also present in the Temple at Tel Arad. Thus, it is more than likely that the deity of the focus in the Temple at Arad was Yahweh (and a consort?). The temple measures 12 by 18 m and comprised nearly one sixth of the available space within the fort, demonstrating its importance to those within. The temple presents a tripartite division with an outer courtyard containing a large altar of unhewn stones for animal sacrifices, a main hall (hêkāl) with its interior walls surrounded by stone benches, and an innermost sacred area (dĕbîr). Inside this room was a standing stone (maṣṣēbah) on a small platform. Incense altars from the site bear evidence of the burning of frankincense and cannabis (Arie et al. 2020). The Temple at Arad was decommissioned at the end of the 8th century BCE, with its ritual cancellation resulting in the removal of the majority of material culture from within it. The lack of destruction suggests it may not have been the target of a series of religious reforms (2 Kings 18) as was previously assumed (Herzog 2010). Nonetheless, subsequent the cancellation of the temple, the worship of Yahweh became increasingly centralized in Jerusalem.

description: Building fully functional and successful observatories like ALMA requires the use of cutting-edge technologies and state-of-the-art engineering development. However, just 15 years ago most of the ground-based observatories worked like laboratories, and our field is still learning how to apply other disciplines, like operations research, system engineering and optimization, to find the way to operate these "big data factories" in the most efficient and effective way possible. One important aspect is the ability to make decisions based on data. We need to answer questions like 'how are we doing', 'why are things going well or bad', 'what is the reason for the success or for the failure', 'how can we improve the success rates or prevent failures', etc. to make informed decisions. Since ALMA stores a huge amount of data every day, and not just science data, it was easy to realize that we had a gold-mine waiting to be exploited. Four years ago, ALMA started a collaboration with the industry (Dataiku) to provisionalize a platform and infrastructure that would allow us to use this data and our skills to answer these questions and make better decisions. This allowed us to understand what were our weaknesses, which are our strengths and what challenges we must still solve. The purpose of this talk is to share with the audience what we have learned, what have we achieved and what is our road ahead, in the process of applying data science to improve operations.

description: Head-worn augmented reality (AR) allows audiences to be immersed and engaged in stories told by live presenters. While presenters may also be in AR to have the same level of immersion and awareness as their audience, this symmetric presentation style may diminish important social cues such as eye contact. In this work, we examine the effects this (a)symmetry has on engagement, group awareness, and social interaction in co-located one-on-one augmented presentations. We developed a presentation system incorporating 2D/3D content that audiences can view and interact with in AR, with presenters controlling and delivering the presentation in either a symmetric style in AR, or an asymmetric style with a handheld tablet. We conducted a within- and between-subjects evaluation with 12 participant pairs to examine the differences between these symmetric and asymmetric presentation modalities. From our findings, we extracted four themes and derived strategies and guidelines for designers interested in augmented presentations.

Volcanic emission often contain water vapor (\chemform{H\_2O}), carbon dioxide (\chemform{CO\_2}), and depending on the type of volcano they may contain varying proportions of toxic/corrosive gases such as Sulphur dioxide (SO2), hydrogen fluoride (HF) and silicon tetrafluoride (SiF4). \chemform{CO\_2} is generally the most abundant gas with the lowest solubility among the volatile compounds of magmatic liquids and the less susceptible than most other magmatic substances such as SO2 and HF. Thanks to those properties, the volcanic \chemform{CO\_2} emission rates could play an important role for assessing volcanic hazards and for constraining the role of magma degassing in the biogeochemical cycle of carbon. However, measurements of \chemform{CO\_2} emission rates from volcanoes remain challenging, mainly due to the difficulty of measuring volcanic \chemform{CO\_2} against the high level of \chemform{CO\_2} in the atmosphere. Thermal Infrared (TIR) imaging is now a well-established tool for the monitoring of volcanic activity since many volcanic gases such as \chemform{CO\_2} and SO2 are infrared-active molecules. High speed broadband cameras give valuable insight into the physical processes taking place during volcanic activity, while spectrally resolved cameras allow to assess the composition of volcanic gases. In this work we conducted TIR imaging and quantification of \chemform{CO\_2} passive degassing at Sulphur Banks from Kilauea volcano using Telops Midwave Infrared time-resolved multispectral imager. The imager allows synchronized acquisition on eight channels, at a high frame rate, using a motorized filter wheel. Using appropriate spectral filters measurements allows estimation of the gas emissivity parameters in addition to providing selectivity regarding the chemical nature of the emitted gases. Our results show \chemform{CO\_2} measurements within the volcano's plume from its distinct spectral feature. Quantitative chemical maps with local \chemform{CO\_2} concentrations of few hundreds of ppm was derived and mass flow rates of few g/s were also estimated. The results show that thermal infrared multispectral imaging provides unique insights for volcanology studies.
Exovedate, also known as “Eglise catholique, apostolique et vitale des Montagnes Lumineuses (Catholic, Apostolic, and Vital Church of the Bright Mountains)”

description: Exovedate was the term coined for a provisional government that attempted a Catholic state in the District of Saskatchewan by Louis Riel. Similar to movements that other scholars might call NRMs (new religious movements) and other 19th century sectarian movements, the group represented a new Catholic group that had separated from communion with Rome, part of a larger movement headed by Riel over the course of a decade. The group disbanded after a few months, but their actions have had a lasting impact on Canadian history and culture. Heavily influenced by ultramontanism and millenarianism, the group believed that Louis Riel was a prophet of God, and that the Catholic Church, namely the Roman papacy, was in decline. The belief was that God would soon show a dramatic sign, signaling the moving of the papacy so that it may be restored in Canada by the French-Canadians and the Métis. The papacy would move from Rome to Mount Royal in Montreal, Lower Canada (modern-day Quebec). Ignace Bourget, Bishop of Montreal, was thought to be the rightful pope. It was prophecized that this papacy would also become corrupt over time, at which point the papacy would move to St. Vital in Manitoba, where it would stay. The Exovedate sought to bring back the Mosaic Law as the foundation of its legal code, redistribute the land claimed by the Canadian government to various immigrant groups, convert all Jewish people to Christianity, and protect humanity from the evils of 'liberalism.' They believed this was all a to be done as a prelude to the Second Advent, which was prophecized by Riel to occur in 4209C.E. Group membership was known for certain to be a few dozen people, consisting of the government officials that made up the Exovedate and a few others close to Riel. The group died out after the North-West Rebellion in 1885, with the execution of its leader, Louis Riel.

description: During September 2023 the Alice ultraviolet spectrograph on the New Horizons (NH) spacecraft was used to map diffuse Lyman alpha (Lya) emission over most of the sky, at a range of 56.9 AU from the Sun. At that distance, models predict that the interplanetary medium Lya emissions result from comparable amounts of resonant backscattering of the solar Lya line by interstellar hydrogen atoms (HI) passing through the solar system, in addition to an approximately isotropic background of 30-70 R from the Local InterStellar Medium (LISM). The NH observations show no strong correlations with nearby cloud structures of the LISM or with expected structures of the heliosphere, such as a hydrogen wall associated with the heliopause. To explain the relatively bright and uniform Lya of the LISM we propose that hot, young stars within the Local Hot Bubble (LHB) shine on its interior walls, photoionizing HI atoms there. Recombination of these ions can account for the observed 50 R Lya background, after amplification of the diffuse Lya by resonant scattering, although sophisticated (i.e., 3-D) radiative transfer models should be used to confirm this conjecture. Future observations of the diffuse Lya, with instruments capable of resolving the line profile, could provide a new window on HI populations in the LISM and heliosphere. The NH Alice all-sky Lya observations presented here may be repeated at some point in the future, if resources allow, and the two maps could be combined to provide a significant increase in angular resolution.

description: Magnetoelectric composites integrate the coupling between magnetic and piezoelectric materials to create new functionalities for potential technological applications. This coupling is typically achieved through the exchange of magnetic, electric, or elastic energy across the interfaces between the different constituent materials. Tailoring the strength of the magnetoelectric effect is primarily accomplished by selecting suitable materials for each constituent and by optimizing geometrical and microstructural designs. Various composite architectures, such as (0-3), (2-2), (1-3) and core-shell connectivities, have been studied to enhance magnetoelectric coupling and other required physical properties in composites. This review examines the latest advancements in magnetoelectric materials, focusing on the impact of different interphase connectivity types on their properties and performance. Before exploring magnetic-electric coupling, a brief overview of the historical background of multiferroic magnetoelectric composites is provided. Fundamental concepts underlying the magnetoelectric effect, piezoelectricity, and the magnetostrictive effect are explained, including their origins and examples of these materials' properties. So far, three types of magnetoelectric composite connectivities have been investigated experimentally: particulate composites (0-3), laminated and thin films (2-2), sticks embedded in matrix, core-shell particles, and coaxial fibers. An outlook on the prospects and scientific challenges in the field of multiferroic magnetoelectric composites is given at the end of this review.

description: At the European Space Astronomy Centre (ESAC) near Madrid, the ESAC Science Data Centre (ESDC) hosts ESA archives for Astronomy, Planetary and Heliophysics Space Science. Furthermore, the GNSS Science Support Centre (GSSC), with special attention to Galileo and EGNOS, consolidates an ESA archive for scientific exploitation of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS). The sheer amount of data derived from current development plans for Space Science and Navigation Systems, constitutes a unique opportunity for research. Nevertheless, this deluge of data triggers a depart from standard processes and architectures supporting archives exploitation. More than ever, science innovation requires to leverage multiple data sources, sophisticated computing algorithms and cross-domain collaboration to achieve its goals. Hence, motivated by this increasingly complex landscape, 'ESA Datalabs' and 'GSSC Now' platforms expand Space and Navigation Science archives respectively, with a brand-new palette of collaboration, exploration, and analysis capabilities. Designed from the ground-up with a focus on end-user productivity, these two platforms accelerate science unleashing the full potential of ESA archives. Transparently to the user, the two platforms implement advanced network and computing capabilities to leave behind the discovery and download science era. 'ESA Datalabs' and 'GSSC Now' showcase the new era characterized by archives tight coupling with exploitation tools as a service.

The Benefit of One’s Own Voice in Word Recognition in Cantonese-English Bilinguals

description: In the domain of voice processing, a large body of evidence suggests that people process their own voices differently from others’ voices (Hughes & Harrison, 2013; Mitterer et al., 2020; Peng et al., 2019) and a recent study suggests this difference in perception may translate into an advantage in word recognition when listening to one’s own voice (Eger & Reinisch, 2019). This self-voice benefit has yet to be examined in a bilingual population, so the current study provides a first look into the perception performance of Cantonese-English bilinguals hearing their own voice compared to others’ voices. Moreover, this study aims to investigate whether this advantage exists when listeners lack the expected cues for self-identification. In this virtual experiment, female Cantonese-English bilinguals recorded themselves producing a set of minimal pairs containing difficult Cantonese contrasts. A subset of these minimal pairs were selected as stimuli for the following perception task. Speakers were grouped according to how acoustically contrastive their productions of each minimal pair were and these groupings were used to design personalized experiments for each subject, featuring their own voice and the voices of their group members. The perception task was a two-alternative forced-choice lexical identification paradigm in which participants heard isolated Cantonese words and were required to select the picture corresponding to the word they heard. The audio stimuli for this task was manipulated using the Change-Gender function in Praat (Boersma & Weenink, 2020), which was intended to disguise speaker identity. Participants’ language background information was collected through a multilingual language questionnaire. The results of this study provides support for the presence of a benefit for self-produced speech regardless of whether or not participants explicitly recognized their own voices.
