Summary of Experiment 1 results.
Comparison | Real-word deviant | Other deviant | MMN for real-word deviant | MMN for other deviant | Real word MMN vs. other MMN |
Pseudoword vs. real word | [kʰa˨˩] | [pʰa˨˩] | 131–600 ms, p < 0.001 | 202–600 ms, p < 0.001 | Real≈Pseudo, p = 0.547 |
Allomorph vs. real word | [pʰa˧˥] | [kʰa˧˥] | 165–600 ms, p < 0.001 | 191–600 ms, p < 0.001 | Real≈Allomorph, p = 0.685 |
“Other” refers to whichever condition is not the real-word condition in that comparison (e.g., in the comparison between real words and pseudowords, the “other” deviant is the pseudoword deviant). The columns “MMN for real-word deviant” and “MMN for other deviant” report the p-value for the one-tailed test comparing the deviant to the corresponding standard; the column “Real word MMN vs. other MMN” reports the p-value for the one-tailed test comparing the real-word deviant’s MMN to the other deviant’s MMN.
